Didn't we recently have a discussion on how time period should have nothing to do with opinion? Either way, Sex Pistols would easily make big four based on just any one of the following:
1. Overall influence of the genre
2. Quality
3. Popularity
And with just that one album, it might have easily gotten in top punk lists even after 1977. Another good example is Refused and their third album, which got seriously good reviews. Refused reviews. Heh. But their first two were pretty meh in terms of all three criterion I mentioned.
