The stooges are proto-punk. They were a band before the term punk was applied to music, and are credited as a major influence on punk rock which was soon to come, but can't actually be considered part of the genre themselves from a historical perspective, because it didn't exist yet. Post-punk refers to bands that came after the genre's alleged death (i.e. the 80s onward)
