{{short description|Wikimedia list article}}{{See also|List of punk rock bands, L–Z}}{{more citations needed|list|date=June 2015}}This is a list of notable punk rock bands (numbers 0–9 and letters A through K). The bands listed have played some type of punk music at some point in their career, although they may have also played other styles. Bands who played in a style that influenced early punk rock—such as garage rock and protopunk—but never played punk rock themselves, should not be on this list. Bands who created a new genre that was influenced by (but is not a subgenre of) punk rock—such as alternative rock, crossover thrash, metalcore, new wave, and post-punk—but never played punk rock, should not be listed either. {{Compact ToC | side=yes | num=yes | l= | m= | n= | o= | p= | q= | r= | s= | t= | u= | v= | w= | x= | y= | z= | }}0–9Band name | Origin | Years active | Brief summary |
