Do people still listen to Punk? How quaint.
It takes a big man to cry, but it takes a bigger man to laugh at that man.

Oddly, I'm not sure I've ever heard anything by this act. Wait, did they do that song "Babylon's Burning" or something? I think I just heard that recently, but was distinctly unimpressed. It may be that if you come to this stuff years/decades afterwards, it's lost some of its initial thrill.
Good choices from nev gash and PresMuffley above.
Mine might be
Sex Pistols
Black Flag
Flipper
Minutemen
The Heartbreakers

Let U be the set of all united sets, K be the set of the kids and D be the set of things divided.
Then it follows that ∀ k ∈ K: K ∈ U ⇒ k ∉ D
Then it follows that ∀ k ∈ K: K ∈ U ⇒ k ∉ D

They weren't really big over here, at least in the circles I was moving in. I don't recall ever being aware of them playing on the radio or on jukeboxes and they never came over and played shows/toured here. So yeah, I would say they didn't have a big impact here.
