Best punk single

Mojo magazine has a list of the top 100 punk singles, and rather predictably God save the Queen by the Sex Pistols is at number one.
Great record but as any fule kno (I'm)Stranded by The Saints should be top dog.

Billy Dods, Friday, 21 September 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Oh no, not Punk again.

DavidM, Friday, 21 September 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Plastic Bertrand. Ca Plan Pour Moi or whatever it was called. Seriously. Loads of spastic energy, shouty singable, in French therefore seemed utterly foreign and unusual. As busy and buzzy as Nag Nag Nag. And it got in the charts: I was far too young and too provincial to have any knowledge of Spiral Scratch or Desperate Bicycles, so punk for me was a chart phenomenon. So much stuff from that period sounds so dated. All that dour gobbiness. All that wilful post-punk alienation. Even the Pistols sound as melodramatic as a Donald Wolfit soliloquay. So, Platic Bertrand it is for me.

T Traherne, Friday, 21 September 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

I'd put "Soda Pressing" by the Boys somewhere in the top ten. Can't really hear the vocals, but does it matter? Also something by the Screamers. "Lexicon Devil" by the Germs, sure. "New Rose" by the Damned, what else...?

Ned Raggett, Friday, 21 September 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Oh yeah, duh, "In a Rut" by the Ruts. "You gotta get OUT OF IT OUT OF IT OUT OF IT!"

Ned Raggett, Friday, 21 September 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

The Screamers never released any singles. "Ca Plane Por Moi" is an excellent choice.

Kris, Friday, 21 September 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

"Agitated", Electric Eels

Oh, I couldn't let a thread go by without mentioning "Forming" yet again

dave q, Friday, 21 September 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

"Panik"-Metal Urbain. Or any early Weirdos singles ("We've Got the Neutron Bomb", "Solitary Confinement", "Life of Crime").

Arthur, Friday, 21 September 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Oh, I know they never released anything, thus part of their charm. But I like to imagine if they did, see. ;-)

Ned Raggett, Friday, 21 September 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

"Quick Joey Small" - Kasenetz-Katz Singing Orchestral Circus

"I'm Down" - The Beatles

"Mutiny in Heaven" - The Birthday Party

"Bad Man" - The Oblivians

fritz, Friday, 21 September 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Predictably, I defer to Wire. Not so predictably, I choose "Dot Dash"

Brian MacDonald, Friday, 21 September 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Damn right: "(I'm) Stranded" by the Saints

RUNNERS-UP: "Pretty Vacant" by the Pistols, "Neat Neat Neat" by the Damned, "Borstal Breakout" by Sham 69, "Cretin Hop" by The Ramones

alex in nyc, Friday, 21 September 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Bollocks to you all. "New Rose", end of story.

Simon, Friday, 21 September 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

BTW

Why have I never liked "Stranded"? I recognize it's a good song, but I never got any kick out of it. I'd love to love it as much as you fellas do, but... Never did it for me.

Simon, Friday, 21 September 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

"God Save the Queen?" I should think not.

"Anarchy in the UK" all the way.

sundar subramanian, Friday, 21 September 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Without a doubt Vice Squad's "Latex Love" -- although probably THE ancestor of most spastic riotgirl-isms we'd like to forget, it was also an S/M blitz of the first tier, without the done-to-death nihilism of its contemporaries.

Thomas Fischer, Saturday, 22 September 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Do The Standing Still by The Table - probably more on the 'new-wave' side of things but imminently danceable.

philT, Saturday, 22 September 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Nag Nag Nag by Cabaret Voltaire.

If the screamers can be on this list, so can CV.

I would also say that Final Solution by Pere Ubu would be seriously up there if it were three minutes shorter.

Michael Taylor, Saturday, 22 September 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

X ray Spex Germ Free adolsence

anthony, Saturday, 22 September 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

"Justa Nother Teenage Rebel" by the Outcasts, this week anyway. I'll stake my existence that someone in that band (who I know nothing about) had a perm.

scott, Saturday, 22 September 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

GAngof Four -Damaged Goods

gabe, Saturday, 22 September 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

'Holidays in the Sun'

stevo, Saturday, 22 September 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

"Ambition" - Subway Sect or "Spiral Scratch" - Buzzcocks or "Where Were You?" - Mekons

Dr. C, Saturday, 22 September 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

'Why have I never liked "Stranded"? I recognize it's a good song, but I never got any kick out of it. I'd love to love it as much as you fellas do, but... Never did it for me.'

I don't think they really 'got' punk. They were sort of like the Vibrators or the Stranglers, pub-rock survivors who made the sound a bit more edgy, except being Australian they lacked even the small amount of media nous their more jaded/snotty English counterparts had, and that made all the difference in that scene. If they'd come out a few years earlier or later than they did they'd be undeniably classic, but...

dave q, Saturday, 22 September 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

... Therefore I cant see how it can be the best punk single, Dave.

Simon, Saturday, 22 September 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

I think the Stranglers comparison is a pretty good one, however The Stranglers must have saw what way the wind was blowing and changed tack accordingly. As did a few others (hello J Strummer).

The Saints must have created their sound in relative isolation though they too must have been aware of Noo Yawk 75 etc. Whether or not they were punk or not I don't think matters,. They looked the part i.e a thuggish gang, and one that probably didn't particularly like each other, and the sound and theme of the song fits right in with what was starting to develop elsewhere. To paraphrase Cheech and Chong, 'Looks like punk, sounds like punk, feels like punk...it must be punk.'

Billy Dods, Saturday, 22 September 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

"When the kids are united" Sham 69. Coz apart from the Ramones and the Sex Pistols they are the only punk band I know anything by.

jel, Saturday, 22 September 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

The Electric Eels, "Cyclotron."

Dishonest Ohio folk pretend they're moronic and homosexual (even if some of 'em actually are) while posing for magazine spreads amongst the debris of mid-seventies American consumer culture. KelvinatorKelvinatorKelvinatorKelvinator

Michael Daddino, Saturday, 22 September 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

jess' top ten punk singles/songs...no particular order, though, really:

pere ubu - "30 seconds over tokyo"

electric eels - "cyclotron" b/w "agitated"

wire - "i am the fly"

buzzcocks - "what do i get?"

the slits - "shoplifting"

the fall - "totally wired"

swell maps - "let's build a car"

bad brains - "pay to cum"

flipper - "sex bomb"

the birthday party - "the friend catcher"

jess, Sunday, 23 September 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

"straight outta compton."

fred solinger, Sunday, 23 September 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

I'm tempted to second "Do the Standing Still," flippant as it was. (Second in the flippant category is surely "I'm in Love with Margaret Thatcher" by the Not Sensibles.)

Nitsuh, Sunday, 23 September 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Fred makes a very good point.

I'm quite happy with "God Save The Queen", actually.

Tom, Sunday, 23 September 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

I wouldn't like to haphazardly ram in any old shit, but I will put my weight of agreement behind Pere Ubu and the Cabs.

And I would also very much like to know if there are any mp3s of those 'flippant' choices hanging around anywhere. I must have them...

emil.y, Sunday, 23 September 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Better point than Fred's: "One More Time"

mark s, Sunday, 23 September 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

I don't see how Im Stranded can be the best punk single since it isn't the best punk single by The Saints ("This Perfect Day" is).

This Perfect Day is an astonishingly, erm, *perfect* song. Absolutely flab free, not a milli second wasted.

Alexander Blair, Sunday, 23 September 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

"Teenage Kicks"?

Sean, Monday, 24 September 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

"The Punk" by Cherry Vanilla. "Hello he says like a beefy hunk/Well I'm a little angry and a little drunk/I wanna rock 'n' roll/ I wanna be a punk!"

Arthur, Monday, 24 September 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

as a sort of 'modern' punk single I also like Supernova's "Calling Hong Kong".

jel, Monday, 24 September 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Arthur, how dare you mention Cherry Vanilla, are you insane? You probably have the Dana Gillespie album, too.

Sean, Monday, 24 September 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

i'm gonna say "nervous breakdown" by black flag should be up there...

g, Monday, 24 September 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Yeah, call me Celestia, Sean. Of course I've got the Dana Gillespie record. And the Ava Cherry record, too. What of it? Actually, my real choice is "Anarchy in the U.K.", yawn.

Arthur, Monday, 24 September 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Ok, I've got the Dana Gillespie album too.

Sean, Monday, 24 September 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

You're all wrong... It's "Sonic Reducer" by the Dead Boys, natch.

Andy, Monday, 24 September 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

i wasn't being flip or contrary when i mentioned "straight out of compton." i'd been listening to it at the exact moment that i saw this thread and thought, "i can't think of a single punk single that's as splenetic or that's filled with more aimless rage." the group is filled with drug dealers and criminals (more or less); their album cover features five african-american men pointing a gun, ostensibly, at you, the viewer, who is presumably laying on the ground, returning to consciousness after having caught a bad one. and this is what you wake up. they wrote a song called "fuck that police" and garnered threatening letters from the f.b.i. and what's more, the public loved it.

"fuck tha police" may be the better punk single -- but it doesn't have the opening line, "you are now about to witness the strenf of street knowledge" (which, in my book, outclasses even the mighty fine, "is she really going out with him?") and it's not the wide- ranging statement of purpose (or lack of purpose) that "compton" is. which is a long way of saying that it's their "God save the queen" (attack on authority figurehead) to "anarchy in the u.k.'s" "compton."

and while i'm at it: were n.w.a. the sex pistols to public enemy's clash?

fred solinger, Monday, 24 September 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

calculated shittiness v. "quality" consciousness? eh... did somebody say peaches?

i say "rock show" ("a big gigantic cock show") is best at punXor

Tracer Hand, Monday, 24 September 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

(I'm) Stranded is totally great, but This Perfect Day is even better

Jerry, Sunday, 30 September 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

If "Shot By Both Sides" counts, I'd go for it.

Robin Carmody, Sunday, 30 September 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

I would have to say that New Rose by the Damned is definitely up there, also Jealous again by Black Flag, Blew My Cool by the Oblivians, Manimal by the Germs, Submission by the Sex Pistols if you have to go there, not to forget Red Tape by the Circle Jerks, and really pushing the 'punk' genre back to the 60's is definitely one of the best songs ever written ...Don't tread on me by Kit and the Outlaws. there are so many though. all of the ones I've seen above are heavy contenders especially the early Fall mention...oh, hell, and Shit Fool by the Dicks. -H

Smarmy Yank, Monday, 1 October 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

And Cabaret Voltaire and pere ubu are good in thier own right, but nowhere near Punk. Ouch.

smarmy, Monday, 1 October 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

nine months pass...
"Six Pack", Black Flag. "Survive", the Bags. "Black Cross", 45 Grave. Any will do!

Matt Riedl (veal), Saturday, 13 July 2002 00:00 (twenty-three years ago)

WROFLMOTHER (haitch), Tuesday, 21 February 2006 03:21 (nineteen years ago)

Frantic Romantic is a real good call. Funny though, I prefer the 'new version' Salmon cut in the 90's over the '79.

The Velvet Overlord (The Velvet Overlord), Tuesday, 21 February 2006 08:12 (nineteen years ago)

dude ... is this the "which parent do you love more" thread or what? ... what kinda question is this?

and my biased, ridiculous answer is: Wire - "Ex-Lion Tamer"

Cameron Octigan (Cameron Octigan), Tuesday, 21 February 2006 08:18 (nineteen years ago)

perhaps Gary Gilmore's Eyes

zeus (zeus), Tuesday, 21 February 2006 08:36 (nineteen years ago)

Ridiculous because it wasn't ever a single?

Rotatey Diskers With Dadaismus (Dada), Tuesday, 21 February 2006 10:54 (nineteen years ago)

Again, it was a b-side, this time to "I am the Fly"

mark grout (mark grout), Tuesday, 21 February 2006 11:08 (nineteen years ago)

b-sides don't count as singles when they're six month old album tracks stuck on the back of a single by record compnaies

Rotatey Diskers With Dadaismus (Dada), Tuesday, 21 February 2006 11:10 (nineteen years ago)

but they count when the single fucking blows, and the bside fucking rules. also ... "ex-lion tamer" came out on a previous album. so, it was just SO good that the record company couldn't let "i am the fly" come out on it's own b/c xlion tamer is ridiculously rad.

since when was ILM so serious?!

thanks for being snobs.

Cameron Octigan (Cameron Octigan), Tuesday, 21 February 2006 11:12 (nineteen years ago)

since when was ILM so serious?!

When people show up who think "I Am the Fly" blows

Rotatey Diskers With Dadaismus (Dada), Tuesday, 21 February 2006 11:18 (nineteen years ago)

I prefer the 'new version' Salmon cut in the 90's over the '79.

actually that surrealists version is pretty good!

First off - fuck this "punk died in 1979" bullshit. Even Don Letts doesn't believe that nonsense.

Now then:
Antiseen - Fuck all y'all
Poison Idea - feel the darkness / alan's on fire
black flag: nervous breakdown
Buzzcocks: all of them - singles goin steady doesn't have a bum track on it.
Jesus Lizard - wheelchair epidemic / Mudhoney Hates the Polics - great dicks covers, that improve on the originals.
New Bomb Turks - Job
Dead Kennedys - Nazi Punks fuck off - not their best song, but the packaging puts it on the list

and lots and lots more.


Uncle Tom (Uncle Tom), Tuesday, 21 February 2006 15:16 (nineteen years ago)

First off - fuck this "punk died in 1979" bullshit

Yes, exactly, it was dead by the end of 1977

You Oughta Know

Sterling Clover (s_clover), Tuesday, 21 February 2006 15:37 (nineteen years ago)

Right, and rock and roll died in 1958 after Elvis got his haircut.

Wanker.

Uncle Tom (Uncle Tom), Tuesday, 21 February 2006 15:50 (nineteen years ago)

Yeah Don Letts says punk dissapeared in 82 and came back with Nirvana, followed by Green Day and Blink 182! Seriously, I saw that movie (it's been discussed here), and it's amazing how he decides to completely ignore everything that happened in the 80s.

Dan Selzer (Dan Selzer), Tuesday, 21 February 2006 16:07 (nineteen years ago)

Right, and rock and roll died in 1958 after Elvis got his haircut.

Well, at least you got that right

Rotatey Diskers With Dadaismus (Dada), Tuesday, 21 February 2006 16:12 (nineteen years ago)

If Don Letts is the "punk: attitude" guy, you're misrepresenting the argument. He doesn't say it disappeared, he says it receded, maybe he says it "went underground," don't remember if he used that metaphor. He embodies mid- to late-80s punk in Agnostic Front--it's a pretty negative portrayal, they seem like knuckleheads and H. Rollins characterizes them as such, at a time when (according to Rollins) everything was getting much more interesting musically.

eek, Tuesday, 21 February 2006 20:27 (nineteen years ago)

well, I was annoyed because he really did jump ahead in time, except for having Agnostic Front talking, and I also think he misrepresented Thurston Moore. There's some moment where Thurston says something like "and people say punk disappeared in 82" or whatever and it really seems as Thurston's about to say "BUT..." having heard him talk about 80s punk in it's many forms and how vibrant and exciting it was, then Letts cuts away and starts talking about Nirvana.

Four and a half years, 165 replies, and still no-one has put forward The Knack's "My Sharona". I'm not saying it is necessarily the best but it must surely make any top 10.

who is that punk band, in the original punk rock movie that letts did, that they show in the studio trying to do a reggae tune? god, i used to laugh myself silly when that part came up. i loved that movie when i was a teen. i found a 99 cent copy at the supermarket or something.

scott seward (scott seward), Tuesday, 21 February 2006 21:37 (nineteen years ago)

Many of the old Crass Records singles and EPs can be countd amongst the best punk singles, namely Crass' own "Big A, Little A", Dirt's "Hiroshima", and Flux of Pink Indians' "Tube Disasters".

"He doesn't say it disappeared, he says it receded, maybe he says it "went underground," don't remember if he used that metaphor."

As far as I can remember he doesn't actually say that (the UK scene pretty much died and) the action moved from the UK (back) to the US from about '79/'80 onwards - but the inference is pretty clear.

Stewart Osborne (Stewart Osborne), Tuesday, 21 February 2006 22:34 (nineteen years ago)

LeRooLeRoo (Seb), Wednesday, 22 February 2006 00:08 (nineteen years ago)

The Letts movie and that recent Mojo issue on U.S. punk are at least improvements over books like Punk: The Definitive Record of a Revolution (what a title), which appears to deviate from the punk-died-in-'79-then-Nirvana-happened narrative only to say that punk influenced rap.

U.X.A. - You Saw Me
The Accelerators - Sorority Girl

I'm recreating the semi-legendary "Lose Your Friends" and "Lose Your Job" cassette comps from the mid 80s and those are the only 2 tracks left to find.

I've narrowed my vote down to "New Rose."

Fritz Wollner (Fritz), Wednesday, 22 February 2006 13:53 (nineteen years ago)

Maybe that's because we thought our alleged kids (Oi! and Hardcore) looked more like our skinhead neighbour and our headbanger milkman than they did like us?

Also we're not expected to take responsibility for our grandchildren in the same way, are we?

Stewart Osborne (Stewart Osborne), Wednesday, 22 February 2006 14:18 (nineteen years ago)

five years pass...

This thread + Spotify = a serious addiction.

I wound up creating a chronological list of 300 punk songs, 1973-present, arguable and beautiful: What is punk? A Chronology in 300 Songs: 1973-2011

I'd love more suggestions, especially on '85 to the present. There was a lot since then that's considered punk that I don't like, or don't consider punk, and a lot that I like that's not really punk, and an awful lot of underground stuff that I've forgotten. That's why I titled with a question. The list is chronological by year, and chronological within the year when possible, then sequenced for flow. I'm still learning to Spotify too, so if it doesn't work, let me know. I think I made it interactive, so feel free to add songs. Make it 500? I copied my original list elsewhere.

I'll have to save these other threads for a lazy Saturday:

Best punk single
What are the definitive proto-punk, punk, post punk and hardcore songs?
recommend me some punk songs
101 Punk Rock Love Songs
top 100 most punk songs in the blues idiom
Best of "Disco-Punk"?

Pete Scholtes, Tuesday, 30 August 2011 15:01 (fourteen years ago)

Whoops, not "Best punk single" obviously. And looking back, it's also obvious I ignored the traditional meaning of "single."

Pete Scholtes, Tuesday, 30 August 2011 15:13 (fourteen years ago)

Wow, really nice playlist. Here's some post-85 radness that's looks to be on US spotify

The Ex - Gonna Rob the Spermbank
New Bomb Turks - Born Toulouse-Latrec
The Dwarves - Drug Store
A-Frames - Experiment
Epoxies - Wind Me Up
Pissed Jeans - Boring Girls
Jay Reatard - My Shadow
Disfear - Get It Off
Marked Men - Blew My Head

bendy, Tuesday, 30 August 2011 16:45 (fourteen years ago)

Thank you! I'll keep adding. My only limit is to include just one song per album as a representative of the release, unless another was also released as a single. But from now on it'll be one big tent, all additions welcome. (I'll keep my own list separately. I already left out some obvious ones, and would add those to this shared list too.)

Pete Scholtes, Tuesday, 30 August 2011 19:01 (fourteen years ago)

I copied my original list elsewhere.

Where? I don't have Spotify, Pete (and don't plan on getting it), but if you can provide a link to the list, I'm sure I can make some suggestions.

clemenza, Wednesday, 31 August 2011 14:00 (fourteen years ago)

On Spotify: I just meant I'd take new songs even if I didn't like 'em--which hasn't actually been a problem.

Pete Scholtes, Thursday, 1 September 2011 01:40 (fourteen years ago)
