Punk Songs From Non-Punk Bands

Postby club80 » Mon Dec 08, 2008 2:47 am

"Father Christmas" by The Kinks and "Shattered" by The Rolling Stones come immediately to mind.

What other punk or new wave sounding songs were released by bands not normally associated with these genres?

We didn't sell a lot of records, but somehow we left an impression.

Alice Cooper's New Wave genre jumping with 'Clones (We're All)' is almost as good as any Gary Numan track
