A lot of rise against is punk hell if we were going by a strict definition the All American Rejects are punk because of how they write.
All American Rejects aren't punk at all, unless some of their other songs then the 5 or so I've heard are drastically different.
But they are written in punk chord patterns and timing which is what denotes something punk it may not sound like other punk songs but when classifying a song its the writing that counts.

Ehh, but their look/mood/lyrics don't fit. You could call them punk influenced, but it just doesn't seem right to call them punk.

Ya but we are talking in generalizations of bands, I know what you mean but if britney spears wrote a song with "punk" lyrics we arent going to say she is punk. I know what you mean but you kind of have to look at it as a whole.
This thread makes me sad =( I didn't read it all the way through the though, some of those weren't punk in the least.
My favorites are: Bouncing Souls Bad Religion Bad Brains Bomb the Music Industry! Cobra Skulls Converge Descendants Dropkick Murpheys Face to Face Flogging Molly Fugazi H20 Hot Water Music Husker Du Less Than Jake Mustard Plug NOFX Pennywise Rancid Rise Against Satanic Surfers Strike Anywhere Streetlight Manifesto The Briefs The Distillers The Dwarves The Ergs ---------------This is real pop-punk for those of you that think Fallout Boy is Pop Punk The Explosion The Falcon The Menzingers The Suicide Machines The Real McKenizies Tsunami Bomb World/Inferno Friendship Society (craziest stuff ever)
That should keep you busy for a while...I went down my MP3 player and listed punk stuff I had at least a CD of that I liked, or they're just to good not to list. I left out stuff like Black Flag, Dead Kennedys, The Clash, Ramones...etc cause they're oldish and everyone knows them.
fallout biy isnt punk at all!!! and i dotn know exactly..is rise against punk?
