Zod, perhaps the aesthetic that punk seeks to achieve is just contrary to the artistic requirements that satisfy your as a listener. I can seriously understand why someone would pretty much hate the genre, even if I myself think that true genius lurks in its atavistic depths.
Of the bands mentioned, Strung Out is likely to be almost listenable for you.
Favorites for me: almost all of the aforementioned bands, to be sure (DOOM!) as well as shit like the Cro-Mags, U.K. Subs, Toxic Reasons, The Clash, The Meteors, The Plasmatics. And a surprising number of new bands. What I'm happy with is this thread has produced some bands I've never heard and will be checking out very soon.
