They were never really punk. They rode that wave for a bit though.
I think The Raven is my favorite album of theirs.
I think punk was just a name
Some of the heavy riffing by the stranglers , undertones , pistols .....bodies for example, as the song starts , stiff little fingers etc were straight out of the rock 🤘 locker
Killing Joke were popular with the punks late on the scene but a lot of heavy rocks fans like myself loved Killing Joke
I'd say you can go back further than that - this is a punk record as far as I'm concerned;-
Punk is an attitude I think, but whatever it is and whether the bands referred to above were punk or not, they were like a breath of fresh air in the mid to late seventies - the world had heard more than enough from pompous prog rock bands by then.
The Ruts..now there's a band..
my mate threw a half full can of Stella at Owen..caught him right between the eyes on his forehead...watch the Top of the Pops vid of Babylon's Burning...you can see the fresh scar clearly..bloody good shot sir..
What on earth possessed your mate to chuck a half full can of Stella and the finest punk vocalist of them all? An act of great cowardice I must say. I bet you, he wouldn't have the bottle or bollocks to have a go at Malcolm Owen face to face, the gutless little shit!
Labels are arbitrary really. Sniffin' Glue fanzine in the 70s gave the following advice on how to create punk which was, I think: Steal a guitar, learn three chords, form a band.
But you can progress from that in many directions and still retain the original spirit.
The Stooges were a hard rock band for sure, but there were elements of punk in their sound too.
Nobody was playing like this in 1972

Always liked and still like JJ"s Bass tone.
He has a signature Bass made by UK company called Shuker.
Like the way jj burnel went off on one instead of just following the drums
Phil Lynott was great for doing that , leading the long
rather than start a FNT thread how we follow this thread with some punk tunes or perceived punk tunes
the New York Dolls has been mentioned so .......oh trash

I am a lover of all music but mostly a rock and metal fan
I always found UK punk a bit tinny with no bottom end
Apart from GBH , Discharge , Conflict
999 , UK subs did not have a powerful enough sound to me
But some of the American punk , especially the dead Kennedys and later minor threat and black flag and fugazi were loved by us rockers because of the heavy guitar work
People can place bands in any genre they want but if they are loud and are driven by guitars then that will do for me

Punk in attitude but far from it musically
