Who is the most covered Punk/HC Band?

Vanilla Gorilla - 10-12-2009 at 08:06 PM

Was listening to Cock Sparrer today and to me it seemed like they may the most covered band or at least among them.

Who do you think is the most covered? ( band not counting Ramones, Clash, Sex Pistols)

I would think so too but i can't think of much that shows up on regular albums. I wasn't really talking about live stuff.

You can just make an awful youtube video.

Dave - 10-12-2009 at 09:34 PM

misfits for sure

MattyA - 10-12-2009 at 09:45 PM

Would say the Misfits on record, live Iwould say the Cro-mags or Black Flag.

every shitty youth crew straight edge band is required to cover youth of today
which sucks ass

misfits as the most covered...

We have covered pretty much all of the "over-covered" bands:

Black Flag, Minor Threat, Agnostic Front, Sham 69, Cock Sparrer and on special occasions when people ask nice...Slapshot. I think they are all over-covered, but are a shit ton of fun to play at live gigs. Don't know if I'd record a cover. We did contemplate "We're Not Gonna Take it" as a recording, but Discipline already has done that.

I have to say Misfits as well.

Live, in my neck of the woods I've seen a bunch of bands do Madball.

over here it´s cro mags and negative approach. everyone covers ready to fight.

Mark Lind - 10-13-2009 at 07:28 AM

For a while it was the Misfits. Then it was the Clash. Then the Replacements started to get it a lot but that fizzled out. I'd agree with Cocksparrer being one of the overdone bands. I'm sure those poor bastards aren't seeing a dime from it either.

Dave - 10-13-2009 at 10:00 AM

we never really did all that many punk covers over the years...we just couldn't give them any justice...

bands we covered live over the span of the band:

The Oppressed
Oxblood
SubHumans (cdn)
Blitz
Sham 69
Stan Rogers
Spirit of The West
Bruce Springsteen
Motorhead

That's all that comes to mind right now.

bands we recorded for albums:
Stan Rogers
Bruce Springsteen (which was never released)

Discipline - 10-13-2009 at 10:17 AM

Negative Approach
Misfits
Youth of Today
Minor Threat
Iron Cross (Crucified, even though Agnostic Front made it famous)
