It's either Alternative Ulster or Suspect Device by Stiff Little Fingers, I think you'll find.

It has to be, the one, the only:

Though Rockbitch may well take the crown for most punk stage act...

If it's the Clash, and it's not Rudy Can't Fail, then it's the wrong answer.

If I can't win with quality, I'll win with quantity

Another vote for NOFX The Decline. Quality and quantity, 20 minutes of punk perfection.

Mrmoofo I saw the Anti Nowhere League twice and they were very scary gigs I wouldnt call them ersatz, they may of had a very short shelf life but were really full on.

I really like Slayers version of Filler/I dont want to hear it, the original is great as well.

I'm liking _tom_'s suggestion; SLF embodies the angst and protest of early punk, with the backdrop of the Troubles. For annoyance/upset value, the Pistols or the Dead Kennedys would get my vote (the latter probably due to my mother confiscating my copy of "Too Drunk" for a week).

SLF were great and Inflamable Material is a classic, they got all prima donnaish on the next tour and walked off stage because they were being gobbed at. At the time we labelled them as poseurs and sell outs 😆 I dont think I would want to be gobbed at and would of walked off stage as well.

Oh maturity what have you done with the livid young man I once was 😉
