Love X, but I have to go with Under The Big Black Sun. Exene's voice gives me major feels.

Proto Punk bands are Garage Rock/Hard rock bands that were important for Punk history, but they were not punk bands. Like the name implies, they formed the prototype for punk, but they weren't punk bands yet.
So I'm asking if proto punk counts.
so when does it stop being proto and just become punk...

NY Dolls, Dictators...?

pistols?

X2 Under the Big Black Sun is my favourite X album

My fave thing used to be spinning the vinyl and smoking covertly when I was like 13

This:

or this:

Both opposite extremes of what punk is but both still sound awesome to this day and embrace the ethos.

David Thomas and Peter Laughner were right to cut the fat when they started Pere Ubu, cause those guys obviously had nothing to contribute but doing exactly what Rocket from the Tombs had already been doing.

I can't swallow this. Just because they didn't call it punk yet, doesn't mean it wasn't punk. And the term "proto-punk""---pshhhh.

For instance, to say Iggy wasn't punk as f**k between '68 and '74 is crazy. I don't care if the term "punk" had been attached to anything at that point or not. The MC5 weren't punk because the Pistols hadn't come along yet? Ha!

Punk has been around since the Johnny Burnette and His Rock 'N Roll Trio album. They just hadn't pigeonholed it yet with a term.

ok, fire away...
