I miss stuff like NewYork dolls and Iggy Pop

That's a very interesting statement. I think that most of the music that sounds punk these days isn't totally punk. Refused is subversive by being one of the few, if not the only, Marxist/Anarchist bands around (they've broken up, but they are still relatively new.) Bands like Exploited and Casualties shout "Anarchy!" like 50 times in every chorus, yet these guys believe that punk is measured according to the size of your mohawk.
Leftover Crack and Choking Victim are bands I'd definitely recommend if you want something with a provocative message in the lyrics.
