cyanidUdrank


Vote for My Chemical Romance 2) My Chemical Romance

they have such a great message even though people think they are an emo band but they’re not

Best band ever! Love their lyrics!

I love MCR! Definitely one of the best bands of all time. I have to been to about 5 concerts and they are absolutely amazing and so entertaining to watch and listen to!


Vote for Green Day 3) Green Day

no other punk band can touch green day at all, P.S rise against sucks really badly

numetalhead

Along with Rise Against these r the best punk rock band ever

eddie95mufc

as much as I dislike modern day rock bands and punk rock (not as much as I used to) these three guys are genius

pauler94


Vote for Blink-182 4) Blink-182

blink has written some of the best party songs and some of the saddest love songs ever blink rules!

ikingjosh

best band ever

Hylologic

i would say one of the best bands ever but should be best punk band at least

gibsonsg


Vote for The Ramones 5) The Ramones

they’re like one of the only real punk bands on this list and they are awesome

pandalover95

the ramones kick ass they should be number 1

rockman

The Ramones school MCR any day. It’s a simple fact.


Vote for sum 41 6) sum 41

probably one of the greatest punk bands ever.

Dudes,
How could you not possible have Sum 41 (the promoters of punk) in the top 10?

This should be the number 1....
SSSSSSS
UUUUUUU
MMMMMMM

44441111


Vote for The Clash 7) The Clash

This poll said PUNK ROCK not POP PUNK, so the only real punk bands in the top 10 are the The Clash, Ramones, The Sex Pistols and The Misfits

hockeyrocks57

the clash should be #1 cause them and the ramones invented punk rock

pauler94

Green Day is ranked higher than the Clash what a joke.Green Day is a pop band.


Vote for Sex Pistols 8) Sex Pistols

No doubt best ever punk rock band bar none

Half of these bands aren’t even punk. Sex Pistols (gets my vote), Ramones, Pennywise, The Clash, THOSE are punk bands.

asphaltpilot

This is the true punk, what are Green Day doing in this list. Isn’t there some kind of censor!

Fredrik28


Vote for Simple Plan 9) Simple Plan

They off the charts dude they have to be no. one especially their new album is really amazing

rohitv92

I love Simple Plan. They’re songs are great and Pierre’s voice is amazing. Love ya SP!

AMAZING!!!!!!


Vote for The Misfits 10) The Misfits

Misfits have always and will always be better than any other punk rock band and I think they should atleast do better than My Chem there the ones that remade the misfits song astro zombies and MCR’s version sucked ass get the misfits higher on the bord VOTE!

between jerry’s thrashing bass, and danzig’s bellowing melody, this is truelly one of the greatest punk bands of all time, who created a genre. sure your MCR can cover AstroZombies, but this wont lessen the shine of the original founders of horror punk.

FREAKIN AWeSOME!!!!

Bunch of posers must be voting on this.How are those preppy little pop-punk bands ahead of bad brains and black flag who are both great bands.Good charlotte is not punk rock! Its corporate pop and so is simple plan, blink 182, sum 41, boys like girls, yellowcard, taking back sunday and the majority of these bands ahead of bad brains. I dont think there the best but there top 25 hands down. All those bands I mentioned are just abunch of 20 year old millionairs whinning about there make believe problems and that girl who didnt go to the prom with them because she thought you were a dork. Get over it you losers. How is good charlotte even on here? Brittney Spears is more punk than them.
