By the way, The Modern Lovers pre-existed Punk and it was Johnny Rotten who sang it.
Sorry, didn't mean to sound like a dick, just setting the record straight.
oh yeah, it's supposed to say 'early protopunk/new wave' though they're more akin to new wave/indie sound than punk actually. And it was johnny rotten not sid vicious, my bad.
thanks for setting the record straight bro, i didn't take any offense at all. and thanks for being polite, you're a good guy!
good day and keep in touch.
