Punk Rock: rock music with deliberately offensive lyrics expressing anger and social alienation; in part a reaction against progressive rock.
I mean just take one album which was huge Raw power. The title track alone couldnt sound much more like a straight punk track.

Again you're falling into the trap of finding something that sounds like punk and saying 'Hey, Look it's punk' from a time when it didn't exist. If it wasn't for what happened in London you wouldn't even be calling it punk.

You mean those bands that had been around since the early 70s that did nothing other than play in one club that flocked over to the UK in 1976 as soon as the Sex Pistols became popular?
