Here's a pretty good list, with links to several of the bands.

two more bands i found last night:

the rekoning (like new flatfoot 56 without their cool instruments)
godsent humans (like a mix between crashdog and the crucified)

oh, and one i forgot: outer circle. oldschool one-album project from the former singer of the crucified.

Godsent Humans is kind of weak. There are only a couple of songs on the CD that I care for.

 

[xPandax]

i think you guys pretty much got it all.

anything else i can think of would be the btpr stuff like civil defense 1984 and scene police i dont remember if no purchase necessary was mentioned either or found with fault.

Thanks for the responses.

If you want to upset you parents then by all means check out all the bands mentioned. (Many of them are quite awesome!)

If you want something 'punky' yet accessible, check out Audio Adrenaline and maybe a bit of Kutlass. Yea, it's totally mainstream stuff, but if you are old school punk rock (like me and other 40 year olds) you'll appreciate their mix of spirituality and the chord riffs that allowed punk to stand the test of time. Remember, punk was not about musical integrity and know-how (most of us didn't even know how to play our own instruments); it was about playing how you feel. In case you wonder about my sincerity, my avatar is actually my instrument - an $8,000 guitar from the Gibson Custom Shop (and yet I started out as a pure punk rocker with no musical clue in the early 80's.) Not that material posessions are so geat, but it is a testament to my musical devotion.

Good luck and God bless.
