the 77 London scene had some great bands, but it also had a lot of shitty pop bands, and the UK82 scene was fucking idiotic
that said, the British anarcho and crust scenes were awesome, but they were also short-lived and rather small
the US had a great early punk scene, which transitioned to a great hardcore scene, which turned into a great noise rock scene, screamo scene, etc.
punk is just way bigger in the US and has a longer timeline, which isn't to say American music is better, but the thing is when American punk evolved, it just splintered into more types of punk (psychobilly, pop punk, cowpunk, post-hardcore, grunge, garage punk, etc), but when British punk evolved, it evolved away from punk and turned into music genres that weren't identifiably punk in any way (post-punk, darkwave, C86, madchester, etc)

OK, I forgot about these two. I don't like any of those others though. I don't even like Butthole Surfers that much.

US for punk
UK for post-punk

The way U.K. specifically the Thatcher era was very repressive towards certain attitudes made for some pretty interesting punk

This thread again? Who cares? Good music is good music no matter where it comes from.

What about in the 60s?
It all depends on what sub genre we're talking about. My personal favorite is folk-punk, which obviously would go to US.
