Music for the sake of music. If it's played at a modern party and can be easily danced to, it's not punk.
These are some of the leading punk bands:
The Buzzcocks
Black Flag
Blondie
THE CLASH
The Damned
Dead Kennedys
Generation X (Gen X)
Greenday (but only Kerplunk, 1,039 / Smoothed Out Slappy Hours, Dookie, Nimrod, and some of American Idiot)
THE JAM (some say they're mod, but they're the epitome of punk)
The New York Dolls
The Pogues
The Pretenders
The Ramones
SEX PISTOLS
Stiff Little Fingers
Early U2
Ultravox
The Velvet Underground
The Who
Wire
XTC (believe me)
The Adverts
Iggy Pop
Magazine
Talking Heads
And there are so many more, I can't possibly list all the best
