That's my problem with a lot of punk. Seems to me that all of the best punk bands left punk behind and went post-punk. PiL, Pere Ubu, Talking Heads, Gang of Four, etc sound like they represent the original punk musical philosophy more than any of the "punk" bands that came after ever did. I mean, I like 2nd wave and beyond punk plenty, but they seem to have missed the point.
