The best punk rock music videos and songs of 2014? That's a hard one, given the underground nature of the punk music scene and the loads of impostors out there. We gave it our best shot. Let us know what your favorites were in the comments section below!
“Over Our Heads” – OFF! ft Jack Black
OFF! are doing for rock what Run The Jewels are doing for hip hop. Headed by Keith Morris, these journeymen bust out hardcore punk that deserves your attention. With four awesome music videos in 2014 -- including this 2-parter featuring Jack Black -- OFF! owned it in 2014.
"Meet Your God" - OFF! ft Jack Black
"Red, White, And Black" - OFF!
Nazi-bashing with Brian Posehn? Hell Yeah!
"Hypnotized" - OFF!
This one is fucked up and hilarious. David Yow stars as our anti-hero.
OFF! weren't the only guys who made awesome punk rock music videos in 2014. Check these out...
"Miserable Failure" - Iron Reagan
Iron Reagan are definitely a band to watch out for. This one was filmed in Portland and features a cameo from Red Fang.
"Talk Shit, Get Shot" - Body Count
Ice T and Body Count brought thrash to the streets. The intro section is what really makes this one great.
"Institutionalized 2014" - Body Count
Their version of Suicidal Tendencies' "Institutionalized" was another rage-filled, hilarious highlight.
“I Don’t Wanna Be An Asshole Anymore” – The Menzingers
The Menzingers hilarious spin on Jason from Friday the 13th is the perfect fit for their brand of pop-punk.
"Collision Course," "Honor Is All We Know" & "Evil's My Friend" - Rancid
How about a 3-for-1 from Rancid?
"Trainwreck 1979" - Death From Above 1979
Death From Above 1979 had a triumphant return, a triumphant album, and a triumphant video to match.
"Left For Dead" - Bass Drum of Death
Mutilation has never looked sexier than it does in this video from Bass Drum of Death.
"Babyhead" - Diarrhea Planet
These Nashville rockers know how to have a good time. Also, check out the Pete & Pete-referencing "Platinum Girls"
“The Righteous One” – The Orwells
The Orwells are seeing double (and sometimes triple) in "The Righteous One."
"The Great Escape" - Trash Talk
In less than 2 minutes, Trash Talk capture the excitement of... um... just watch the video.
"Paper The House" - Fucked Up
Fucked Up had a few music videos to choose from, this was our favorite because it captures the energy of their live show. Also, be sure to check out "The Art of Patrons."
“Black Me Out” – Against Me!
Violent, monochromatic shadow puppets from Against Me!
“BURDEN OF PROOF / REIGN” – LAGWAGON
No video, but too awesome not to include. It's Lagwagon!
