because NoMeansNo is beyond punk. Most punk fans I know dont even get them. My theory being their little brains can't process anything that isn't played at hyperspeed in the typical 4/4 time that runs over 2 minutes (even that is pushing it for their attention span).

Whether they're better than the Sex Pistols or any other punk band is not issue here, VU were far more influential on the future indie scene than on punk.

I'm guessing you're not a fan of punk, but you should check out some of the debut albums by some of the lesser known punks bands of the time, such as The Saints and The Dead Boys these are great albums that often get overshadowed by the better known punk acts and usually get very good reviews. I revisited these bands recently and realized how good they actually were.
