Hmm, I'd have to say Bad Religion.

If you include punk's sub-genres, like ska-punk, then Streetlight Manifesto by a very, very long shot.

Eh, If you'd asked me about 2 years ago, I'd say Green Day (mostly older like Dookie, but AmId was pretty good, but in a different way), or Blink-182, but now I'm less into mainstream... Although I still love them both very much...

But now... I think I like Zebrahead best for punk... but they're Punk-Alt... Ah well I'll have to wait 'till 21st-Century-Breakdown (GD Album) comes out to truly know...

Zebrahead is rapcore there are really cool though.

Well, I think that with MFZB, BttW (others that I liked less like PmotY), and Especially Pheonix, they've branched out into more of a punk-rock/alternative sound, whereas in TheYellow, and other early works were more rapcore...

Also, lol:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zebrahead

Wikipedia has them listed as both, and even (to my dismay), pop-punk...
