You can't be an American Punk band they are all British. New Wave yes but punk no you don't have the culture to put it over.Nah...not completely true. I can think of a couple Dee Dee Ramone, John Lydon 'Johnny Rotten' is now very conservative.
Then there were conservative leaning punk bands
Cromags
Gang Green
And then there were Oi! bands (skinheads) like Screwdriver, The Exploited, Cockney Rejects, Combat 84
This is what punk is all about -
The Snivelling Shits - The best band ever, never to get a recording contract. Who needs the capitalist bastards they were fantastic.
The Ramones, Gang Green, and the Cro-Mags are American ya fuckin pogue.
Ok, I'll let you off with the Ramones and they were in the right time frame but not the others as authentic punk as a genre ended in 79 when the Pistols split. Everything after can only be classed as New Wave.
Jesus...lol!
