I absolutely agree with the uncomplicated statement about the Troggs. However, going back to the garage rockers and proto-punkers, that's pretty much the bulk of their output: noisy, messy covers of pop songs. The Troggs probably played those simple pop song because they lacked the talent to do anything else. Simply by playing standard pop songs and being noisy and messy, I feel they can be lumped in with the garage rockers and to a lesser degree the proto-punkers.
