Bad Man loves punk.  When a good punk goes bad, there's cause for concern.  This list features our punk brethren who have fallen from grace.  Some have gone over to the "other" side (Heavy Metal), some have gone Pop.  All now suck.  These aren't the obvious corporate sellouts the likes of Green Day and No Doubt - these people were all once solid viable punkers.

Glenn Danzig.  Every little Goth girl has a Misfits hoodie.  I've never seen anything much in that band, but at least they weren't terrible.  Glenn went on to do shit-ass Metal.  I say good riddance.

Henry Rollins.  Black Flag.  Spoken Word. Currently residing in the Metal genre - yikes!

Johnny Rotten.  What list of punk wouldn't be complete without this guy?  His work with The Sex Pistols is unmatched in the world of punk, and his post-punk first few albums with public image limited were legendary and ground breaking.  Then he said fuck it and put out sometimes catchy pop shit, but always shit.  How very punk of him, but it still sucks.

Dave Grohl.  Nirvana was the official second coming of punk, and as such it was godlike.  Kurt picked Dave because he hit the drums harder than anyone.  Now he's in Foo Fighters, quite possibly one of the worst "alternative" bands ever.

Dicky Barrett.  Mighty Mighty Bosstones are just plain mighty bad.  Dicky was once in real bands: Cheapskates and Toxic Toast.  I don't know them, but they HAVE to be better than Mighty Mighty Bosstones.

Flea.  Red Hot Chili Peppers suck.  Flea, Michael Balzary, was in Fear.  "Let's Have a War".  It doesn't get any better than that.

Billy Idol.  Everyone knows his pop shit like "Rebel Yell", but this guy was once in bands rubbing shoulders with Sid Vicious and Siouxsie Sioux.  Member of the Bromley Contingent, Billy was all about the newly burgeoning punk scene and fashion.  Then he somehow got off track and wrote really bad pop shit.

Greg Hetson.  Bad Religion.  I just don't get.  Never liked them never will.  So Greg, why play with them when you are in the phenomenally better band Circle Jerks?  Well, for your transgression you get added to this list of sellout elite.
