Edit: Make it a top 8 because I do what I want, Hot Water Music
Edit 2: Shootout to Mitch Clem for introducing me to a bunch of not very well known bands... Also add Discount to that list, merry fucking Christmas bitches
Very punk of you
Punk. Thanks.
If this was a test you would have passed lol.
It's a real shame he took down the archives of all his comics. But yeah, I got introduced to a lot of favorite punk bands through his "Liquid Paper" series.

Thank you. I'm in a very anti-fascist mood and this is what I need.

love Defiance, Ohio
The inclusion of Chumbawumba is scrambling my brain. Explain please.
Most people only know them from that one single that got popular back in the day. They've never been a pop band though. They're actually an anarchist art collective that's been around since the early '80s. The podcast Cool People Who Did Cool Stuff did two episodes on them. It's worth a listen. They're much cooler than you think they are.
Th@nk you for this kind mind explosion on a Friday.
No problem. They're one of those bands whose sound changes a lot over their career, and you wouldn't necessarily infer their beginnings from their later stuff, but if you go back and listen to their early albums like Ballots, or Pictures of Starving Children Sell Records, their punk cred is a lot more obvious.
Woah, crazy. So I should start listening to their other stuff besides that one song?
Definitely
Highly recommend Wingnut Dishwashers Union.

Dead Kennedys
Against Me!
Refused
Cheap Perfume
Lambrini Girls
Honourable mentions: Bad Religion and The Clash
REFUSED!!!! I discovered them way too late. They were a band ahead of their time!
I actually don't like the '90s stuff they made. Their album War Music in 2019 and the 2020 Malignant Fire single songs are amazing though, and I love Useless Europeans from the Freedom album as well.
If anyone else here ever tried Refused but didn't get it, try their modern stuff, it's way different, lyrics hit harder and the production sounds more similar to that loud Samurai feel in CP2077.

I kept Mustard Plug off my list because Ska.
Well, they had one albums worth of songs then one member quit. Then other members just added Lars Fredrickson and became Rancid. Like, I love op-iv but rancid scratches that itch and people prob want some more diversity in their list.
