I always regarded Killing Joke as a punk/prog band..
Ultimately bored by endless ecstasy!

CMX's Kolmikärki is worth mentioning, although it's probably next to impossible to come by outside Finland. The songs range from hardcore to rock to prog to hymn to waltz to shamanistic mumbling. Good stuff.

I can recommend you one band:
Cardiacs, they play prog punk (they even used to call their music pronk...) They are already at ProgArchives, you may check them out there:

There are some of teir songs you may listen for free there. For me, Dirty Boy is amazing...

is there such thing
i think so
i love punk rock
i love prog
hhhmmmm
the punk rock is the kid inside of me
still angry
still confused
hyperactive
 
i have found a couple of examples of progressive concepts in punk rock
the first two i came across was the band fear
on their debut album "fear- the record"
the songs "camarillo" and "we destroy the family"
both have odd time signatures
and in we destroy the family the guitar player pulls of a slow frippish solo
 
the next 3 i came across were on the 4th descendents album "all"
the songs "impressions", "iceman" and " uranus"
not so much on impressions but very much so on uranus
 
that band broke up and formed a band called ALL
they had some progressive songs
and example would be "charligan"
 
and my last example for the moment is NOFX "the decline"
its a 17 minute punk song that has several movements
very odd for a punk song
 
now before you guy come all down on me and say that there is no way that any of this is progressive keep in mind that all of these bands are punk bands not progressive bands
but to hear a punk band try to do something diffrent is an awesome concept to me considering the amount of talent that the average punk band has
