This thread is bringing me back to my angry youth days lol
My Chemical Romance
Cover of Ring of Fire is ****ing awesome.
One of the best shows I've ever seen. Them and DKM.
Sublime has been labeled as ska. And some other bands listed are in the ska category so I'd include them.
Against Me! makes my dick hard.
I think you became my new best friend. I love that entire list, more some than others, but LTJ is quite possibly my favorite band of all time.
My list includes
Against Me!
The Impossibles
NOFX
LTJ
Streetlight Manifesto
Catch 22 (Keasbey Nights)
Op Ivy
Social D
Rancid
Bad Religion
Alkaline Trio (Radio is like the only song I really like by them - STD and them had a version, pretty awesome)
Descendents
Flogging Molly
Dropkick Murphys
Millencolin
The Matches
MXPX
Mustard Plug
Goldfinger
Save Ferris
These aren't the typical punk but i'd say they somewhat fit in the mold.
Taking Back Sunday
Brand New
Bayside
Saves The Day
Haha. I wish I would have been into punk in high school. Its funny I never did because two of my closest friends were big time. One had the street punk style of dressing, which I always thought was cool. To bad in school I was more worried about fitting in than just being myself. I know people say it all the time, but if I met my high school self, id kick his *** lol. But in high school I was definitely that angry kid you despised authority (although im still an amgray young man who despises authority lol, but angry for different reasons), punk music and being in that crowd more probably would have made high school a lot easier for me.

Maybe. But some punk crowds are pretty "authoritative" in their own way, demanding a
certain uniform, ways of thinking, and bands that are accepted and not accepted. There
is just as much pressure amongst some punks to make people "fit in" as there is in
society at large. It's just sort of an "Alice in Wonderland" version where if you're not
the "opposite" of what is perceived as "mainstream" then you're castigated and outcast.
For a thinking person who accepts no group's mores and demands as above scrutiny,
it can sure leave a young person out twisting in the wind. I'm so thankful age takes
the edge off all that "fitting in" crap!

Yea I never really got why some of the punk crowd is like that. Its supposed to be about being different, but if you're not exactly like them they'll critisize you, but that seems to be more from the street punks, which theres few here. I went to a small school, so the group was small. It was weird too, because that group was the smartest kids in my class. All but one graduated in the top of the class, the other would have hadnt he dropped out. And most of the local band were formed by kids in small towns around here.
I have found in my lifetime, the music most "difficult" for "regular people" to access,
is made and enjoyed by two groups of people: the uneducated and chronically poor,
and the extremely educated and generationally wealthy. This goes for punk,
black metal, experiemental noise, etc. ad nauseum. The middle class just follows
along behind like bloodhounds, trying to find some evidence of something that
is real, and true, and alive.
Some other "punk" bands I've enjoyed:

well, did they really think religious people would actually stick around for their hardcore liberal songs? I mean, I am conservative, and struggled with a few of their songs because of it. Factor in being religious, which I am not, and no, they didn't miss an audience. They are over-thinking it.
If you want the ultimate, you've got to be willing to pay the ultimate price. It's not tragic to die doing what you love.
