Choking Victim - No Gods, No Managers is essential. You might wanna start with older 70's stuff like Sex Pistols and the Clash, though. If you want hardcore start with Black Flag, Bad Brains, and Circle Jerks. Just use last.fm, google, or wikipedia after that to find new bands.

If you could list some bands you may already listen to, I'd be happy to mention some that are similar (and hopefully leading you in a direction).

Hey! I'm Autumn, and I would really appreciate it if you checked out Sublime With Rome's NEW single called 'Panic'

Id go with Misfits, Dead Kennedys, and like Rancid or the Descendents.
Super good but not very intimidating.
If your up too it though, Crass, Casualties, the Unseen, Conflict, SSD, Gang Green are also excellent.

Also that is the greatest punk album hands down.
