Thanks for the input. lolOriginally Posted by Pullman
Ok, proto-punk is punk. Most bands classified as proto punk are from NY and everyone knows punk started in NY and didn't sound like The Buzzcocks. It was a lot artsier back then. Bands like The Velvet Underground, Television, Suicide, etc... were all called punk without anyone questioning it. Listen to The Stranglers and The Lurkers from England, both punk bands from the 70s and were totally influenced by those punk bands. And if you don't accept art punks then what about The Stooges, MC5 or The New York Dolls? how can anyone deny those *proto* bands being punk? The NY Dolls were the Sex Pistols biggest influence. Steve Jones was obsessed with Johnny Thunders.
Thanks for the history lesson fag. We all have access to wikipedia. I literally own at least one album from every artist you mentioned. POST UP MUSIC THAT CAN BE DEFINED AS PROTO PUNK OR FIRST WAVE PUNK PLZ.
I've been listening to this music before the arrival of Wikipedia. Infact, once wiki came out I did major contributions to various music genres and other topics. So, you are welcome, indeed!
that was such a cool story bro, that I would read again.
Here's a few from The Boys Next Door's only album before changing their name.

The boys next door aren't proto punk at all. They morphed into a goth band with Hee Haw and then changed their name and got even more innovative.
They are punk enough for this tread.

i normally dont like this type of music, but i found some pretty sick songs. thread has delivered.
Good. I'm glad you got something out of it. I wish there were more contributers though. There's so many good punk tunes in such a narrow period of time.
