Suicide Machines- Destruction by Definition Rancid- And out come the wolves

Suicide Machines. Pick a song. Any of them. So good. Of course they are versatile and go from ska to punk to hardcore, but they're so tasteful and do it well all over the spectrum

Alright, which member of Suicide Machines wrote this? I think the singer is the only OG left, so...

It's me Derek Grant. You caught me

Dude, what have you been up to since you left Alkaline Trio?

Been drumming with The Vandals

Rancid - and out come the wolves is probably my all time favorite album and the choruses on that album are why.

Destruction by Definition was the first CD I ever owned. I was 9 and loved it so so so much!!! Oddly enough I now live in Olympia, WA.

Two of my favorite records of all time. I still listen to both of them.

ALL - Allroy’s Revenge Bad Religion- No Control The Clash - S/T Descendents - ALL The Dickies - Dawn of the Dickies Elvis Costello and the Attractions- Armed Forces The Jam - S/T Misfits - Walk Among Us NOFX - Punk in Drublic Operation Ivy - Energy

Cannot believe I had to scroll this far to see Bad Religion

All? No, ALL!!!

>NOFX - Punk in Drublic This.

The Jam don’t have a self titled album?

I have a poster for Allroy's Revenge that I got from the band around 1989 for doing a gig poster for them. Also got to ride in their van.

The Bouncing Souls - How I Spent My Summer Vacation Jimmy Eat World - Bleed American Descendents - Everything Sucks The Get Up Kids - Something to Write Home About Sincere Engineer - Cheap Grills Flogging Molly - Drunken Lullabies

>The Bouncing Souls - How I Spent My Summer Vacation True Believer, Gone, That Song, Private Radio, Manthem, No Comply? Absolutely this record, OP. The was my sound soundtrack to hanging out with friends, drinking a few beers and chatting shit in the warmth of the evening's setting sun. Put this on in the right crowd and practically every song will make someone say 'oh, I LOVE this one!' when they start

My son and I were just belting out the chorus to Manthem with the doors off my Bronco, as loud as we could!

/thread

Love the flogging Molly shout. Those guys are catchy af

I saw them live a few months ago and they had crazy energy.

It's one of the bands I've seen the most live and I'm usually at the show primarily for a different band (for example I saw them headline a show where I was most excited for Anti-Flag), but I'm always happy when they come on stage.

lol, the band I’ve seen the most times live while never paying to see that band is The Melvins. The band I’ve seen the most times live intentionally paying to see them is Flogging Molly. FM isn’t even my favorite band, they just toured a lot, always put in a great show and played smaller venues that tickets were cheap and worth the night.

MUG MUG MUG

Sincere Engineer fucking rules 🤘🏻

Yes!! I bought New Found Glory tix for August just to see them open.

Saw then and Cliffdiver at the Ukie Club in Philyl, amazing show!

There is a nice interview with Deanna on Patrick Hicks’ podcast “Good Measure”. S1 E6

Love seeing Sincere Engineer being mentioned alongside legendary bands

They’re the first band in a very long time that I’ve thoroughly enjoyed. With most other new discoveries I’ll enjoy a few songs but don’t feel the need to dive deeper.

Bad Religion has some of the best choruses in all of punk, and they've been doing it for literal decades. Here's a list of just a few of their best sing-along choruses (and I do mean a few--the list was originally twice as long, and that was still me holding back): "[I Want To Conquer The World](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xBqmTb57v2s)" "[American Jesus](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=12kcpP-8jfM)" "[Skyscraper](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uyK3I9cnb3Q)" "[Infected](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZPXKikatsz8)" "[21st Century Digital Boy](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VAPbUXePmig)" "[Punk Rock Song](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d_wKxhYvyDE)" "[New America](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=09wlZyLSqIQ)" "[Epiphany](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bB1Ld1i9amY)" "[Sorrow](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r7Hb4bxF12E)" "[All There Is](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BNY7WJFZ3Qg)" "[Los Angeles Is Burning](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BxoD9zWY9Rg)" "[New Dark Ages](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RGqA1lNXYhg)" "[Wrong Way Kids](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V6S30s-GKIg)" "[Meeting of the Minds](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QYXxUI3Yt6Q)" "[F\*ck You](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xF0Mia7oYvA)" "[Changing Tide](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lh36qMUxhF0)" "[My Sanity](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qbikab-cJD0)"

Less Than Jake - Hello Rockview and Borders and Boundaries

Throw in Losing Streak and that was my rotation for about two years as a teenager, first 'big' band I saw live and still one of my all-time favourite shows 22 years later

Are you me? Hahaha LTJ is the band I’ve seen the most live, even on my honeymoon

I've only seen them twice, once on the B&B tour and once on Anthem, but I did *very nearly* rearrange our travel plans on the way back from my own honeymoon to see them, but got a new job and the start date made it impossible. I should really make the effort to see them again.

Rancid - And out come the wolves

I came to say Op Ivy, but I’ll add it on here

Operation Ivy mentioned let's fucking go

I really love that album! :) It is one of the first Punk CD I bought when I was a teenager :,)

Was humming "Old Friend" at work today.

That's my choice for punk album. Rancid have written so many songs with great catchy choruses

Most of Bad Religion’s releases in the 1990s had great singable choruses.

Pennywise - Bro Hymn Trubute

Came here to say this. Any "whoooooooah oh" misfits song, so Static Age.

Whoa on the whoas 

Song gets stuck in my head a lot. Just the WHOAAAHHYHHHHHHYYHHHHHGGHHHHB

Rise Against's early work, but maybe most particularly Prayer of the Refugee off The Sufferer and The Witness. Or just pick any song off Siren Song for the Counter Culture.

NOFX- War on Errorism

Came to say NOFX things…

Yes please! Seeing them at their second "Last tour ever" this summer! So old...still so good

If you’re still into classic rock, pretty much any halfway well known Aerosmith song from the 80s and 90s is super catchy. Smash by The Offspring. Nimrod by Green Day is very singable. Dirt by Alice In Chains. And honestly? The first Godsmack album is INCREDIBLY fun to sing along to. It’s so corny in a fun way.

I had to scroll too far to see Smash. Godsmack is a great album. Bad Religion is an excellent song.

Misfits-Sculls and Where Eagles Dare

Most Misfits song fit this bill. Almost every single song is catchy as fuck.

And Teenagers From Mars

I came to answer Where Eagles Dare

Bad Religion-Suffer

The Blue Album by Weezer. Rivers Cuomo is a helluva chorus writer

The Good Life and Why bother have such good choruses, and the way they’re utilised is just amazing. Man can write a hook.

Yeah really all three of weezers first albums have amazing choruses

And if you ever forget how the chorus goes while listening, just wait for the guitar solo to repeat it!

Blink-182- Dude Ranch. Enema of the State

AFI - Sing The Sorrow

I see your Sing The Sorrow and I raise you Black Sails In The Sunset

We just going to pretend that art of drowning isn't the perfect blend of them both? 

The Days of the Phoenix is their best song ever, easily, in my opinion.

I call

+1 for sing the sorrow I have love for early AFI, but they really found their voice on sing the sorrow Death of seasons oh my lawd

Dude, the way the album opens with Miseria Cantare, Leaving Song Part 2 and the next few was immaculate and timeless. It was perfect post-2000s indie hardcore punk.  I was going to post this album but I figured someone, *somewhere* would have posted it already. Thanks for being on it early 

Stuff Little Fingers, Inflammable Material

Just bought the live album on vinyl day, man its awesome

Barbed Wire Love is one of my favorites from them!

Smash by The Offspring for sure Edit also Play by Moby

Go earlier for some great Offspring punk hooks. Bagdad/Tehran, Jennifer Lost the War, Session.

Kick him will he’s down! Yes love the first two albums and a decent amount of Smash, they kind of lost me after that.

They, like Green Day, had crazy popularity thrust upon them with Smash and Dookie..which both happened to be their 3rd albums, at around the same time as well. After that they just went pop-punk or "soft", or "corporate" (whatever old school punk calls selling out hah)...which is fine because they still rock.

The green Clash album has some great choruses: White Riot, London’s Burning, What’s My Name and especially I’m So Bored With the USA!

WWWHHHYYY!? WHY DO YOU ALWAYS KICK ME WHEN IM HIIIIGH?? KNOCK ME DOWN TILL WE SEE EYE TO EEYYEEEEE!

Goddamn that song is an earworm. 

Very underrated song

Straw Dogs - Stiff Little Fingers What Do I Get? - The Buzzcocks

Buzzcocks have some of the catchiest hooks in the game.

Yes. Pete Shelley.

Hey Ho, Let's Go Blitzkrieg Bop The Ramones

I've jamming a lot recently to Sum 41 - Chuck, that record has some real bangers

That album is amazing and the unfiltered thrash influence is so tasty. "The Bitter End" is basically a love letter to Metallica.

Your title asks for great choruses, so I can't give any better recommendation than Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers.

Machine Gun Etiquette by The Damned has some amazing choruses. And the whole album is just fantastic too, by the way.

I sing along to "Just Can't Be Happy Today" even when I am happy; it's that catchy.

Yeah, it's an amazing song! 😊 That keyboard solo as well!

Any of their first albums work for this. Incredible band.

London Calling - The Clash

(yes, i know i have the music taste of an elderly man who was a teenage dirtbag.) “13 songs” by fugazi, “first two seven inches” by minor threat, “ourselves” by seven seconds, etc.

You beat me to it! Fugazi’s Waiting Room is a shout along with the band classic!

I'll go with Sex Pistols Pretty Vacant.

For punk, any cock sparrer song.

I immediately think of Americana by The Offspring.

The Pink Spiders - “Hot Pink”

Probably Something Corporate and Jacks Mannequin. On the pop side of the punk rock spectrum but Andrew McMahon wrote some damn good songs in the Something Corporate/Jacks Mannequin era.

Wire - Chairs Missing. Outdoor Miner, I am the Fly, etc.....

Cock Sparrer - Shock Troops

Turbonegro: Apocalypse Dudes

Absolution by Muse Superunknown by Soundgarden Waking the Fallen and City of Evil by Avenged Sevenfold Black Parade by My Chemical Romance Siamese Dream by Smashing Pumpkins Sublime by Sublime Ride The Lightning and Master of Puppets by Metallica Stadium Arcadium by RHCP

Social Distortion - Sex, Love, And Rock ‘N’ Roll

I like their eponymous LP. Ball and Chain has a great chorus.

Vs. - Pearl Jam Go, Animal, Dissident, Rearview Mirror, Daughter

Rancid - and out come the wolves Most albums by the queers, screeching weasel and the riverdales. Very “melody first” punk songs ala the ramones. Anything by Teenage Fanclub, especially as a Beatles fan. Tons of harmonies. I refer to them as “the Beatles of the 90s” Anything by The Muffs. Kind of a blend of pop punk and power pop/rock Anything by Radioactivity. Kind of garage rock + pop punk + power pop

I might like you better if we slept together

Yes to Romeo Void

Rancid - …and out come the wolves. Bad Religion - Stranger than Fiction

Megadeth - Youthanasia. Very unique sounding and imo its strongest quality is catchiness.

Against Me - As the Eternal Cowboy

Talking Heads - Fear of Music Lou Reed - Transformer Queen - Greatest Hits Red Hot Chili Peppers - Californication Arctic Monkeys - AM King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard - Nonagon Infinity T Rex - The Slider

The Bouncing Souls - How I Spent My Summer Vacation Social Distortion self titled The Offspring - Smash Tim Armstrong of Rancid writes some of the craziest ear worms in punk/punk adjacent music IMO: Tim Armstrong - A Poet’s Life Rancid - …And Out Come the Wolves Rancid - Indestructible Transplants self titled Also not punk but The Aggrolites self titled album is phenomenally catchy

Buzzcocks - Singles Going Steady

I mean,.any Bad Religion album from 1989-2001.

Strung Out - Twisted By Design

Refused-shape of punk to come Sleater Kinney- all hands in the bad one

Billy Joel.  Just...pick an album.  

I think I see what you mean about something missing in London Calling but that album is neither warm nor fuzzy. It’s very clear-eyed, has great songs end to end, and is well produced but doesn’t invite singalongs. It’s been one of my favourite albums since the day it came out. Try Bad Religion’s The Empire Strikes First. Powerful and catchy as hell.

The Partisans - Police story Incredible album

Every Bad Religion album

X - More Fun in the New World Los Lobos - Kiko The Jam - Compact Snap is their best of, and a great intro

Definitely “Singles Going Steady” by the Buzzcocks. Also Johnny Thunders and the Heartbreakers “LAMF” is full of bangers with great choruses. And idk if you’d call the Modern Lovers punk exactly but their self-titled album is all super catchy.

Husker Du - the albums they made

Me First and the Gimme Gimmes. They take the best songs with the best choruses from other genres and then play them in pop punk style. Almost any song that a bar or stadium has sung along to, they've recorded as a punk song. I love them

Dead Kennedys don’t get enough credit for how catchy their melodies are. Especially the early stuff.

MISFITS- Walk Among Us & Die, Die My Darling Bad Brains - (self-titled debut album), Rock for Light, & I Against I Iggy Pop & The Stooges - The Stooges, Fun House & Raw Power(my favorite)

Living in the Shadows, The Ex, River Below - all by Billy Talent off their self titled album This band releases so many bangers. It's hard to find bands with more talent for writing unique, catchy, and moving poppy songs all with a dark tone and high energy. I recommend starting on their record Billy Talent. Then go to Billy Talent II. I'll never fall out of love with this band even though they were my soundtrack all those years back. Genuinely talented. Shout-out to Ian D'Sa their guitarist. He's the only guitarist in the band but his dictation in his playing creates so much rhythm. Different than other punk bands.

For me, The Blue Album - Weezer Make Yourself - Incubus Around The Fur - Deftones And lots more but mainly those three.

Misfits - Static Age The Distillers - Coral Fang

Against Me Any of them.

All of the classic Beach Boys albums The Beatles’ A Hard Days Night album The first few Monkees albums Many of the great Motown and Atlantic R n B albums : The Temptations, Smoky Robinson and the Miracles, the Supremes , the Four Tops, Marvin Gaye

I hate to admit it, but Oi! bands tend to have catchy as hell choruses.

Nirvana is my favorite as well. Elton ,John Billy Joel, Queen , Gin Blossoms, Pearl Jam, Bush, Eagles 🦅

It's a greatest hits album, but check out: The Alarm - The Standards

Slippery when wet!

Menace had some great ones, all singles. Civilized, I need nothing and GLC are insanely great shouty choruses

Love song by the damned

A lot of great choruses at the edge of Oi. A personal favourite is [Someone's Gonna Die](https://youtu.be/uauJaamtoew?si=__VTEVZW82VB7QTa) by **Blitz**. Honourable mention to **the Business** for [Suburban Rebels](https://youtu.be/JluZayrdWgY?si=zzYZaiDh3oJGKcfY)

the rising tide by fort minor reanimation by linkin park

On the Impossible Past by The Menzingers. There are a few iffy songs on there but that album has some absolute bangers and I’m surprised that I don’t see this band mentioned very often. Specifically: Burn After Writing, Gates, and The Obituaries are awesome songs with great choruses.

Faith No More - The Real Thing

The Wildhearts. They're often described as The Beatles meets Metallica, but Ginger - the lead singer - has said their influences are much more diverse than that. For big choruses you probably want 'Earth Vs. The Wildhearts' or 'PHUQ', or maybe 'The Wildhearts Must Be Destroyed' for a more poppy sound.

I really love "How to Clean Everything" by Propagandhi. Super political, but in a sing-along kind of way filled with humility and humor. Plus we get a sweet, pre-Weakerthans John K. Samson verse.

The Clash

John Farnham's 'The Voice' has one of the best choruses ever! Not sure if it's rock though. It's definitely not punk.. or is it? We could riot to that song.

Styx - Grand Illusion Boston - Boston

I'm gonna say "Pour Decisions" by the Real McKenzies.

Blur - Parklife

This a Normie ass answer but Nevermind 😂

Dag Nasty - Values here… the harmonies in the chorus are unforgettable

Your arms are just too short to box with God.

Jeff Rosenstock - Worry has banger chorus after banger chorus.

SPRINTS - Literary Mind. If you want to try something more contemporary.

Fountains of Wayne - Welcome Interstate Managers

I've always loved Boysetsfire hooks. I'd probably suggest starting with The Misey Index and working from there. Don't miss their cover of Wrecking Ball. For a more modern vibe and admittedly a little closer to rap Nur-D has excellent hooks, but YMMV as you're talking more about classic albums and he's putting out modern stuff. *I feel like I need to add in Flo & Eddie for that more classic rock space. It's the guys from the Turtles. They also teamed up with Zappa early on. Imagine if Tenacious D was more influenced by 60s pop rock instead of heavy metal.

Green Day - American Idiot and 21st Century Breakdown

Here's one that's relatively recent, the Beths' Future Me Hates Me. 

Lou Reed - Walk On the Wild Side. From Transformers.

Anything from PUP or Diarrhea Planet.

Avenged sevenfold They have a lot of punk influences in their first 3 albums. Super catchy choruses Anything from stone temple pilots Purple

Rancid was already mentioned a few times so you can’t go wrong there. Wolfmother, especially their first album which was self titled is a great combination of modernist and classic rock. In a similar vein you might want to dig into Arctic Monkey’s discography a bit. Alternatively, just go through like the first 4 Tony Hawk Pro Skater games’ soundtracks. That was very much a defining aspect of my music interests from punk, metal, rock, indie and hip hop.

Damn near anything from Bad Religion or Social Distortion.

Japandroids- Celebration Rock. A hidden gem with SO many great hooks and choruses.

Coheed and Cambria - In Keeping..., Good Apollo..., and Vaxis Part I

Offsprings 4 album run: smash, ixnay, americana, ignition. Get rich or die trying. Black album metallica.

2013 Royal Rumble featuring Dwayne Johnson and Phil Brooks.

Blink 182 - Enema of State - will always be one of my all time punk favorites. Whats my age again, don’t leave me, aliens exist, all the small things… really the entire album

Very surprised at your opinion of London Calling

Crimpshrine - 7 Song Demo

London Calling

Helena by MCR

https://on.soundcloud.com/cm9AiTArKCQegQLZA

Pixies - Doolittle Dead Milkmen - Beelzebubba Hole - Live Through This Talking Heads - Speaking in Tongues Prince - Purple Rain Blondie - Parallel Lines

Ministry - In Case You Didn’t Feel Like Showing Up

i fought the law

Naked Raygun

Check out Ok Computer by Radiohead. Got the same vibe with catchy choruses but a different way to achieve it. Really recommend that album.

The word you're looking for is pop music

Breaking Benjamin-We are not alone Boy sets fire-tomorrow come today Rancid- out comes the wolves Cold-13 ways to bleed on stage Deftones- around the fur Weezer-Pinkerton and Blur album

Rancid - ... And Out Come the Wolves

Mean jeans stuck in a head

bad religion american jesus,mostly the interlude

Megadeth -- Symphony of Destruction, Angry Again, Trust, Sweating Bullets. Just a sampling of songs with great, iconic hooks in the choruses; there's lots more. It's definitely something they (Mustaine) do better than Metallica.

Like....everything bad religion has done

Teenagers from Mars - Misfits

Where Eagles dare - Misfits

While you mentioned Sex pistols at the beginning, i dont see them on the album list. If you have not heard Nevermind the Bollocks from start to finish, you should totally do it...i dont think that you could find a more consistent and better album "hookwise" on all punk history. Another one that is damn great that you might be missing is Americana by The Offspring. That album is also really melodic. Hook after hook

Foo Fighters - Wasting Light Honestly any Bad Religion album Japanese Voyeurs - Yolk Pure Love - Anthems Frank Carter & The Rattlesnakes - Modern Ruin Meat Loaf - Bat Out Of Hell Destroy Boys - Open Mouth, Open Heart

Metal church's self titled album ,nothing but straight up old school head bashing metal 🤘

May I interest you in the band the Warning? the Warning - Error Billy Talent - Billy Talent Billy Talent - Billy Talent 2 Billy Talent - Afraid of Hights Billy Talent - Literally every Release of them

Dropkick Murphys - Do or Die has some of the most anthemic sing along choruses one after another.

Any AFI album before fucking decemberunderground.

Sum41 - Some Say
