If you're working on your muting then including some riffy tunes would be good as well - the ac/dc, billy idol, gun etc etc

+1 on The Ramones -- great fun, whole songs, no solos.
Pretty much the first songs I learned... and still earning a few quid with them most weekends!
Agree on the Ramones, try "Psycotherapy" for starts

Megadeth are NOT an easy band to learn and are usually more riff-based than power chords, in fact all three bands are the same. Still, wonderful stuff for improving your speed technique \m/
My band, Red For Dissent
Metallica - For whom the Bell Tolls - apart from Kirks intro lick and the harmony all power chords
Master of Puppets - powerchords/muted single notes (ok some open chords in the clean section)
Megadeth - Peace sells chorus all power chords
Slayer - Angel of death main riff low E/chromatic power chords.

Its a song I've never played, quite tempted to give it a go now, add to my small punk repertoire.
Supportact said: [my style is] probably more an accumulation of limitations and bad habits than a 'style'.
Billy Bragg - A New England.
Also agree on the Pistols
Need your Love by Cheap Trick - with the E pedal tone, the E then the B, the D/DFlat/A and then the D.
Also the B-E and A-E part which I think is from the same song.
I could play those chords for a few months everyday and not get bored, knowing the song in my head, it is so ambient. Rick Nielsen was a genius for bringing mood, tension and energy to a song with simple guitar parts.
Um....also anything off the first four albums especially by WASP. School Daze, um, not really power chords but I love the Torture Never Stops riff. I could play that all day long too, and the bridge part with double stops, that is cool too. Most of the other songs are power chords though, 95 Nasty, Love Machine, Wild Child. Manimal, Somebody.
Um. Twisted sister - What you don't Know - extra low notes - heavy.
And some Blink 182 stuff, the chorus to some song, maybe anthem or another, I have this hybrid Blink song I do, as most of their stuff is kind of the same I get confused and it gets melded in my head, but the chorus goes. C-F, C-G, A-F - C and then back to the picking rhythm part and it's played like you were fly picking the chords. Really tight and cool. I think it's from the chorus of 'Stay together for the Kids'.
And...Detroit Rock City by Kiss. Playing the repeated E-D (7-5-7-5-7-5 on the A string) with the low E as well......and then G-C, gggggggggggggggggg G-D,ddddddddddd Wow. I love singing along to that one too.
The verse riff isn't bad either, mostly air, but I only tolerate it because I know I am gonna cream my pants when the bridge to the chorus comes around.
ACDC is good too, like 'Long way to the Top' etc, but mostly forgetable. KISS and Cheap Trick are where the magic are!
Horrid Henry Theme Tune
my kids love it
