The first album I ever bought was The Clash - Combat Rock. I brought it in for show and tell in school. I was in Grade 5... Teacher was not impressed with my music.

It was never about musicianship. It was about being pissed at apathy, the status quo and hair bands....

Hey Warbler I got one letter (not word) for you and it's a band that was produced by a key member of one of the groups on your list of "good music"
X.
Los Angeles was produced by Ray Manzarek of the Doors and is a seminal punk album.[Click to View YouTube Video]
The Drummer DJ Bonebrake is quite an accomplished and talented drummer/percussionist here is his side project orchestra superstring.

Or how bout's Bad Brains second LP "Rock For Light" that was produced by Ric Ocasek from the Cars? These guys could play. Hardcore Punk, Reggae, Funk you name it. Super influential too

Joey Ramone left this world while listening to U2. U2 was hugely influenced by the Ramones.
To some extent, all bands are influenced by those who came before, life experience and signs of the times.
But every once in a while, some incredible musicians hook up with someone who lends a voice and something to say.
These are the bands that stand the test of time. Funny, my iPod just hit "Radio Clash". On that note...

I was with a group of friends once...ages ranging from 22 to 40. We were talking about bands of different genre. I brought up Social Distortion and everyone one of them said, "That band rocks!" Of all the great bands I have seen in my life, I would put Social Distortion as the best. Fishbone comes in a close second. "Sometimes I do and sometimes I don't", Mike Ness

I wish more of my climbing partners had punk rock roots, as I have. My humor can be offputting and vulgar. I listen to loud, fast, sloppy music (though it's become more eclectic in the more recent years.) I see it merely as one of my feminine charms.
Screeching weasel, the queers and the nobodys are playing in Denver on July 15th. If you know these bands, you know how ridiculous a line up this is. Unfortunately, I'll be on the road. However, all of these bands still play a rad show. I pitted to "My Right" at the last Weasel show i went to, and I've seen the Queers 20+ times, they play the same set every damn time, and it never gets old.

Yes, awesome thread! Here's 4 faves, punk had a message, a voice, & an answer when i was a kid. Made a lot of sense when combined with a skateboard & the general frustrations of being young dealing with authority, growing up, etc. It was a great release from the confinements that society provided. One of my favourite things about going to punk gigs was that the band would often just play wherever- in some random hall, indian reserve school gym, some kids basement, wherever possible just to get their message out. The band felt more like your peers & someone you could relate to rather than going to see some rock stars way up on a big fancy stage. At the real punks shows you were on the stage too.

If we're scared of one another
Must be scared of ourself
More than just another crowd
We need a gathering instead

values here in my heart
and we'll be here through tomorrow
every day's a brand new start
fear of failure
fear of reprimand
two big problems I've never had
I never doubted what ya had inside... what you have inside

So now you've met my mom
and I hope you enjoyed yourself
She's already forgotten who you are
and she asks the same questions again

Now we grow as we show that the morals we must know
Will be shapen and mistaken by the falls along the way.
