Few genres have had the lasting impact of #punk. #1976 is one of those seismic dividing lines in popular #music.

A #history destroying year zero. The point after which everything changed. It was the year that The #Ramones debut was released, the year that the first singles from the #UK Punk scene were set loose upon an unprepared public. And while the punks wanted to remove themselves from the past, burn all that had come before, nothing happens within a vacuum. These bands didn't appear out of nowhere with the key principles of the genre locked in place. This innovative minimalist, three-chords and the truth, turbo-powered rebellious music had to have precedent. There were other artists that lead up to this era-defining moment in music that are either forgotten, ignored or not given credit. This is how Punk became punk.
