How the fuck do you not like those albums?
Chairs Missing is just bland and slow compared to Pink Flag, Rocket to Russia is... bland and slow compared to The Ramones, and Fresh Fruit has a couple goods songs mixed in with a lot of shit.
Terrible opinion. Commit suicide or at least don't procreate.
Plastic Surgery Disasters by DK
Singles Going Steady by Buzzcocks
Landshark by Fang
Best of Stiff Little Fingers
what the fuck, rocket to russia literally has faster tempos than their debut
...Really? I literally just listened to it earlier today, willing to give it another chance. Maybe it has "faster tempos", but if all the elements of the song are more spread out over those tempos, it doesn't really matter, does it?
Fire of Love - the Gun Club
The Slits - Cut
Germs - (GI)
Ilegales - Ilegales
The Boys - The Boys
Zounds - The Curse of Zounds!
>likes nevermind the bollocks
>hates rocket to russia
why do you hate later punk music? what about it bothers you? do you not like any hxc, post-hardcore, or emo?

Me and the boys went wild to this shit earlier.
I'm not familiar with any of those 3, but I do like many albums from early punk, so its a safer bet to ask for those
nevermind the bollocks is so much better than rocket to russia that its almost objectively better, are you trolling?
this is a childish opinion. The sex pistols wish they could be as awesome as the ramones
Young Loud and Snotty - The Dead Boys
Adolescents - Adolescents
Cock Sparrer - Shock Troops
and listen to Guitar Romantic by The Exploding Hearts. its modern but good
No i just still have my frontal lobe
Bad Religion - No Control
Bad Religion - Suffer
DOA - Hardcore 81
DOA - Something Better Change
Personality Crisis - Creatures for Awhile
I can't think of anything else right now but those 5 are very good
>Bad Religion
>Good
Pick One
There is nothing wrong with these two albums.
Eater - Album
The Adverts - Crossing The Red Sea With The Adverts
Swell Maps - Jane from Occupied Europe
Television Personalities - ...And Don't the Kids Just Love It
Crime - San Francisco's Doomed
Most Rancid albums, if you like the clash at all.
Wipers first 3 albums
Subhumans - EP-LP
X - Los Angeles
Wipers - Is This Real
Hardcore emo is the true red pill
TSOL - Dance With Me
Their EP is good too
The Adolescents - The Adolescents
The Misfits - Earth A.D/Wolfsblood
i highly recommend smoking crack while listening to this album
Frsh Fruit was groundbreaking, dude. If you don't like that album then most of punk won't appeal to you desu. Like, the albums that you listed as "good" aren't even really punk albums, it's that protopunk britpop shit. If you want more stuff like the wire and the clash, then late 70's punk won't do it or you.
Cornerstones of late 70's punk:
GI- Germs
In god we trust inc/plastic surgery disasters- DK
Feeding of the 5000- Crass
Nervous Breakdown- Black Flag (don't bother with anything else, gap model fest)
S/T- Bad Brains
Lesser known bangers
Neu Smell- Flux of Pink Indians
Voodoo Economics- The Proletariat
Blatant Localism- JFA
Collection of Pop Classics- Reagan Youth
You'll probably like bands like Gen X desu
LETS GO LETS GO AWAAAAAAY
Machine Gun Ettiquette by The Damned
Fugazi 13 Songs. It's from 1987 but it's also the begging of the golden age of Post-Hardcore punk.
Actually London Calling isn't a punk album, and you don't really need any Clash albums after pic posted. (Their best IMHO)
Try this album. You might just like it. It sounds like The Ramones meets The Stooges meets Cheap Trick.
If you like Never Mind The Bollocks, Pink Flag, and Give 'em Enough Rope, I recommend the following albums.......
The Damned-First Three albums
The Ruts-The Crack
U.K. Subs-First three studio albums
Eater-The Album
999-All of their albums
The Buzzcocks-All their albums
The Undertones-first album
Stiff Little Fingers-first two albums and singles compilation (All the best)
The Soft Boys-A Can of Bees
X-Ray-Spex-Germ Free Adolescent
The Avengers-"The Pink Album"
Suzi Quatro-First two albums
The Germs-everything
The Runaways-everything
Generation X-everything
New York Dolls-everything
Dead Boys-Everything
Alice Cooper-Killer and Billion Dollar Babies
Bay City Rollers-everything
Slade-Everything
David Bowie-Everything between The Man Who Sold The World and Diamond Dogs. NOTHING before or after those albums.
The Velvet Underground-Loaded
Lou Reed-Transformer and Berlin
Iggy and The Stooges-Raw Power
Iggy Pop-Kill City
Johnny Thunders and The Heartbreakers-L.A.M.F. (ESPECIALLY if you like Never Mind The Bollocks)
Johnny Thunders solo-So Alone
I've got plenty of recommendations, but this list should keep you busy for quite a while
Sorry you didn't take to Chairs Missing, Rocket to Russia, or Fresh Fruit, as those are favorites of mine, but everybody has their own opinion and personal tastes.
Bad Religion is better than your favourite band
You might also enjoy........
Slaughter and The Dogs-Do Doggy Style
Sham 69-first three albums
Angelic Upstarts-First three albums and singles collection (Angel Dust The Collected Highs)
Cockney Rejects-first three albums and singles collection
*The Dickies-first two albums and singles collection
Peter and The Test Tube Babies-Pissed and Proud, The Loud Blaring Punk Rock Album, The Mating Sounds of South American Frogs, and singles collection
*The Toy Dolls-everything
**Skrewdriver-All Skrewed Up and Boots and Braces
*The vocal stylings of The Dickies and The Toy Dolls are an acquired taste and might take a little getting used to, but the music is top notch
**Skrewdriver have a deserved reputation of being openly racist, and their lead singer was a member of The National Front, so I'll probably get shit for recommending those albums, but All Skrewed Up offers no racially motivated political sentiments, and while Boots and Braces has a few songs that are openly racist, it also has quite a few songs that are ambiguous that are worth it,like Anti-Social, Back With A Bang, and I Don't Like You. Also the vocalist takes some getting used to.
Actually, one David Bowie album to check out after Diamond Dogs would be Ziggy Stardust The Motion Picture Soundtrack. It was recorded live in concert in 1972, and it was the last time he would use the Ziggy Stardust persona. When you hear this, you'll understand why punk rockers like David Bowie albums between The Man Who Sold The World and Diamond Dogs, and why they disregard the rest.
You don't need anything after Back Into The Known.
It all sounds the same after that, and I happen to LIKE Bad Religion.
