Howdy, my Lemming fellas!

I want to research on the Punk Movement. What do you think are the songs that represent the anti-establishment themes of Punk the most?

Thanks!

I'm trying to learn about the Punk Movement, because the Government kinda sucks ass, so yeah. Thanks for that.

    Hell yeah, great way to get into it, but be prepared to learn that "punk" is not really one thing. Id highly suggest checking out Reagan Youth, NOFX, Against All Authority, Blanks 77, Black Flag, Minor Threat, and Bad Brains for a decent sampler. Im seeing a lot of suggestions on here that I'm personally into, but I would consider to be more mainstream/indie.

    Ah okay, so it's more the political leaning that you're interested in? Like others have mentioned, Dead Kennedys and Bad Religion, NOFX, Anti-Flag, Minor Threat/Fugazi, Operation Ivy... Rancid 2000 and a smattering if tracks from their other albums.

    Lots that I'm sure I don't know. And because your original post triggered a single lyric in my head, here's the song it led to.
