Originally The Velvet Underground, but then came along The Ramones!!! the true originators of PUNK!!!... Sex Pistols were more about fashion than music... In my opinion, The Pistols were the first Boy Band... they were put together by Malcolm McClaren and Vivien Westwood... they did not come together like a proper band... When we come to bands like M.C.R. and Greenday...THEY ARE NOT PUNK!!!!! so wake up to the brilliance of The Ramones kiddies!!!!!! The Ramones came over to England and showed bands like The Clash, The Jam, etc. that you don't have to be musical geniuses to have a great band... So The Ramones started it all so there you go!!! GABBA GABBA HEY!!!!!

Old The Clash or Dead Kennedys
new... not many decent punk bands left maybe Billy Talent, or The Gallows. (if u havent heard them go listen they are awesome)
also i know this is gonna annoy some people but althought the Sex Pistols "started" punk they only relased ONE studio album so they are hardly the greatest ever.

Real punk is dead. The likes of Green Day and MCR is just hyped up pop rock.
By the way, Trivium Wiccanteen: Judas Priest is heavy metal, NOT punk.

The Sex Pistols. Can I point out that quite a few of the bands given by people above are not punk.

the pistols and for me personally stiff little fingers still going strong. all this talk of greenday, blink 182 etc. punk indeed. the americans wouldn't know what a proper punk band is.

Actually the Who are considered the originators of punk rock. The song "My Generation" is considered a punk rock classic.

certainly The conflict. intercourse Pistols shaped in seventy 5, The conflict have been seventy six, so Pistols have been technically first, yet they have been merely approximately strategies-set. the adaptation is in the physique of strategies to the sound, and the effect and toughness of the song. You confer with all of us in touch in punk song and that they are going to enable you to recognize the three maximum serious and influential human beings in the historic previous that contributed to punk: Joey Ramone, Johnny funds, and Joe Strummer. all and sundry's have been given an opinion, yet that's the place I stand...

Without a doubt, Greenday, politically as well as musically. I'd really like to say either Ian Dury and the Blockheads, or maybe The Boomtown Rats - but that just wouldn't be true :(
