check out roots punk music. yea you know about the sex pistols and ramones, but check out bands that predated punk, or some of the new wave bands in the 80's that were heavily influenced by punk rock.

television
elvis costello
new york dolls
johnny thunders (solo )
the clash

meat puppets

the blasters

If you have to go with one go with the Clash. They're a great band to introduce you to punk. The Ramones are also a must. There's a lot of great stuff people have listed before me and I agree with some of them. Stiff Little Fingers, Wire (their first 3 albums), The Stooges,Television. What ever you do though, stay away from the 90's punk. It's best to start at the begining and go from there.

contrary to popular belief, the sex pistols aren't all that great. Sid Vicious didn't actually know how to play the bass.
good punk bands:
-the clash
-the stooges
-dead boys
-the damned
-the ramones
-richard hell and the voidoids
-the new york dolls
-television
-stiff little fingers
-the jam
-the heartbreakers
-blondie
these are just the bands from the 70's and early 80's....it seemed like everyone else has the more contemporary stuff covered....but this is considered to be the heart and soul of punk

The Distillers are the best punk rock group in our generation-need proof? listen to the album "Coral Fang" or download the tracks "The Hunger" "Dismantle Me" "LA Girl" and "Gallon is God"
