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

I listened to that album once and never had any desire to ever do so again. Just plain boring, generic boringness. 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... |
