Axiom- Rancid
When you have agot a general feel for punk, learn some simple stuff, ie blink 182. Then you can begin to experiment with fills and so forth.
*professional attitude on*
Punk is good for a beginner learner IMO, the progression show them the patters on the fretboard, and gives them a *basic* idea of shape and keys.

i just learned time bomb by rancid last week. i think it's a great song to learn for lots of reasons. great groove, well chosen notes, somewhat challenging... but most importantly: when i first learned it i was all over the neck and it was like doing calastenics. i then realized that the entire song can be played in 2 positions - verses on the 2nd to 5th fret, and choruses on the 4th to 7th fret. played like that using one finger on each fret it's a great scale like exercise and lotsa fun to play.
if yer playing with a pick all ramones songs are real easy to learn, and great practice for the downstroke only punk method of playing

Why does it have to be punk. Sorry for stereotyping but 90% of punk isn't very challanging. Speed-wise sometimes, but... oh, why do I bother.
Rancid as Indicated earlier
Green Day
Minutemen/Firehose/Mike Watt
