The thing is, I don't see Ramones to be as creative as The Clash, they just sound like a mix of The Beach Boys and New York Dolls. I don't understand how they can be considered an embodiment of punk (nor how their music can be considered punk in the first place).

Punk isn't about not giving a **** about anything, it's the attitude to want to change the world. I don't think the Ramones live up to that part.
