A lot of the ones I like are already listed above, except for the following:
New Bomb Turks
Me First and the Gimme Gimmes (the best punk cover band ever)
The Germs
Voodoo Glow Skulls (I've actually signed autos as if I was a member of the band with them at the warped tour in 98...it's a long story...)
The Offspring (if they're considered punk anymore...)
Mustard Plug
Hi-Standard
NOFX

I don't think they were all that punk, but they started that way and would have to be my favorite. (except that last album sans Mick Jones)

How are the Descendents more punk than Blink 182? These are 2 bands clearly cut from the same cloth...only difference is that one made it big and one didn't.

I love the Descendents.. they're one of my favorite bands... but I don't see how they are "more punk" thank Blink 182 or Sum 41 or any other modern "pop-punk" band
