Rancid

Speaking of misrepresentation, I submit to you the band Rancid. Though they are heralded as stalwart heroes of true, original street punk, their music is actually quite Clash-like in that it is poppy and approachable by the mainstream. One might easily be scared or otherwise turned off by their physical appearance as mohawked thugs, but they'd be missing out on some of the best music of the 90s. Specifically, no music fan's collection is ever complete without ...And Out Come the Wolves. Examples to follow.

I also recommend this video, from the 1995 single Time Bomb.

*Disclaimer: Rancid has two singers. One, Lars Frederiksen, is a very capable singer. The other, Tim Armstrong, sounds like he may have something wrong with him. Do not be alarmed. This is all part of Rancid's allure, though your inability to stomach Armstrong's vocals is a much better anti-Rancid argument than their physical appearance.
