The germs are amazing because they played the music to express the emotion that was being felt. They were expressing the internal suicide of heroin, and living the life of a broken-hearted junkie. On the part of the music, their sound is equal to bands like Black Flag, and Minor threat. If this post is saying that the Germs are the worst punk band ever, that only implies that that entire generation of True, underground punk rock is complete ****. The point is, that The Germs started a wave of punk rock that said a big "**** You" to corporate rock, and brought on the Chaotic punk rock known today. The Germs were kicked out and banned from every venue in california for years because the punk scene had never seen/heard anything like it. If the author of this post thinks that the germs are the worst punk band ever, i suggest listening to the real core punk bands: Reagan Youth, MDC, Jerry's Kids, Wasted Youth, Black Flag, Bad Brains, etc.

I promise you will find that The Germs have really influenced all of these bands in some way.
