    Authority Zero- One More Minute
    Bad Religion- Atomic Garden
    Billy Talent- Red Flag
    Bouncing Souls- Sing Along Forever
    Bruce Springsteen- Outlaw Pete (the only one I can think of but Bruce Springsteen influcence punk bands like for example Anti-Flag, so I had to put him in but if you would like to make a suggestion for a different Bruce Springsteen song then that would be great.)

    Love Equals Death- When We Fall
    The Methadones- Solitude
    The Mighty Mighty Bosstones- The Impression That I Get
    Motorhead- Rock Out (Moterhead influenced many punk bands)
    MXPX- Now That You're On Fire
    The Nightwatchman- Whatever It Takes (Tom Morello inluenced punk bands, played with Anti-Flag, and produced Anti-Flag's album)
    Nirvana- Lithium (alot of people think Nirvana is in a way, punk, plus they influenced some punk bands)
    NOFX- Seperation Of Church And Skate
    The Offspring- Stuff Is Messed Up
    Pennywise- Anyone Listening?
    Rage Against The Machine- Bullet In The Head (they influenced punk bands)

    Story Of The Year- The Antidote
    Street Dogs- Guns
    Strike Anywhere- Refusal
    Sum 41- Underclass Hero
    The Unseen- Are We Dead Yet?

    Like I said, this is incomplete. I am still missing plenty of good bands that I would like to put on this list. Also some of the songs I have may change but this is just what I came up with for now. You may suggest different songs for the bands that I have and some other bands that I don't have and you may also suggest some stuff that could be used as DLC. So what is your opinon of it so far?

    For your modern acts this list could probably be truncated a bit. I think, at least to start out, that the more influential bands from a particular era should be listed and then go from there. That way a good base is established which may allow for the punk genre to catch on and be more popular in Rockband.

    For instance, I think you have it dead on with bands like Pennywise, Bad Religion, etc., being influential in their times. Alkaline Trio, Sum 41, MXPX, etc., not so much. While I don't think these bands are bad, I really don't see them as anything spectacular or influential for various reasons.

    I agree with Clash too. Definitely need more of the classics... especially the 80's punk where thrash, hardcore, socal punk, etc., grew roots.

    Those are good points. Also, if you're calling the game Rock Band: Punk Edition, I'd recommend delving deeper into what punk is. Add some bands like Crass, Subhumans, The Exploited, Stiff Little Fingers, etc. You know, some of the bands that would tear your face off when you saw them live back in the day.

    There also have to be some representation from the LA punk movement of the early 80's. Black Flag, X, Circle Jerks, The Germs, etc..

    Most of the bands you picked are pretty mediocre, in my opinion at least. The good bands the you did pick have pretty mediocre songs.

    I'd go into specifics, but I really don't have the time.

    It needs more Post-Punk!

    Bring on The Smiths!!
    May 20th, 2012: 4 long years since HMX released "Hysteria" by Muse. The wait for more Muse DLC has to end at some point, right?

    Well like I said it's incomplete and there should be some song changes and more classic punk bands being added soon.
