Discuss and share punk music here, I'm interested to see what people are into and get some discussion going.
This thread isn't for debating what constitutes 'real punk', if you want to discuss hardcore, pop punk, ska punk, emo and whatever else, feel free to do so.
I like a long list of stuff which I'll probably post more of at some point or another, but I'll start with some favourites and stuff I'm listening to right now.
One of my favourite bands is Alkaline Trio, in my opinion they have consistently awesome lyrics and not one bad song. They've also served as a gateway for me to learn about a load of other really cool music I wouldn't otherwise have heard. Most people have heard stuff like Stupid Kid and This Addiction, but here's the first track from their first album.

The Lawrence Arms are a great band, too. A lot of cool, drinking music. I went to a show a couple of weeks back, the bassist from Alkaline Trio and the bassist from The Lawrence Arms playing solo acoustic stuff, and it was one of the best gigs I've ever been to, intimate venue (100 capacity) and a great atmosphere.

The final band I'll post for now is Hot Water Music. Great band, I've always liked their passionate vocals and often intricate music. This song was on Tony Hawks Underground, great video game, amazing soundtrack.
