I have a punk chart, but right now I hate it and it's largely been neglected, so feel free to come to me directly for punk recs. If there's one genre I feel like I might be the go-to guy on BEA, it's punk (and hopefully that will become post rock). But yeah, I can guide you through the genre.

I like what purple wrote, but to say Damned Damned Damned was the first straight punk album is silly as The Ramones' debut predates it. Also to say the New York bands were primarily influenced by Sex Pistols (rough paraphrase-not exactly what was said) is wrong cuz well most of the New York punks were completely different than the pistols and predate them as well. If you want to talk about influence, The Pistols sound was mostly ripped from Johnny Thunders, primarily in the guitar parts. Like total tip on the guitar sounds and riffs. _________________ -Ryan
I'll take British post-punk and American post-hardcore.

From that point on, US scenes diverged from British scenes, with US scenes largely going towards hardcore and US roots music while Britain developed post-punk largely on its own with a lot of influence from its colonies and former colonies.
If I were to rank genres, it would go: post punk (UK), hardcore (US), "early" punk (largely UK).
Bottom line: if you include post punk, the British are probably better; if not, the US is infinitely better.
