Mohawks Rock

A few of my friends and myself went on the daunting task of listing and alphabetizing all the known proto-punk and punk bands. We strayed away from local bands in fear that the list would become far too big. Enjoy it as it is please. If you have any suggestions of what to add or remove please go ahead and do so. I ask that you give a reason why
though. I do feel like we missed a lot of hardcore, and horror punk though. So
tell me, did we miss any bands that deserve to be on the list?


It has been decided by popular demand to allow ska
bands onto the list now. I am also now accepting psychobilly on the list.


Please people, please please please, if you have
any bands you would like on the list it is fine, just please alphabetize them.
It gets very difficult to put bands on the list when they aren't in any order
and are just added randomly. I'm the only one working on it anymore, so it does
take a lot of time, and I would like to cut that back as much as possible.


 


Latest update: Included ska bands, and the decision to add psychobilly. Need help with both of those. The List was becoming a chore for me. So, to make it more fun I started adding editor’s notes in it. I hope you enjoy these little tid bits. Also if you have made a large contribution, thank you very much. If you’d like send me a message and I’ll
add some personal editors notes on the bands of your choices for you. Enjoy
this latest update.

We drew the line at ska-punk. We decided that if we were to include all ska bands, we would have to include psychobilly for that crossover as well, not to mention goth, since it was spawned by punk. The line was drawn at any band that was considered to be more influential in the punk scene than any other scene. We also decided to add most of the proto-punk bands, so that not only would there be punk bands, but the bands that led up to being punk. I have no problem adding ska and psychobilly however. So if you want that done just type up a list and i'll get to work.

I was just checking them out a while ago on another website.

Hell, half the ones I put are Japanese and Mexican. The search for great music should lead you all over tha whirrled.
Looks like everyone picked up where I left off... haha

NICE!
Yeah, i have my work cut out for me trying to find the time to add all of the bands mentioned now.
Haha, good luck!
Public Defecation (if local bands count)
We're avoiding local bands, other wise it would be an impossible feat, it already seems improbable to ever finish. So bands have to be known in several different places and have had some kind of effect on the scene as a whole.
