The only thing that has me doubting is that it's pretty slow, but it is almost the exact same tempo as Anarchy in the UK, so I suppose we can ditch the BPM criteria.

If T.V. Eye is punk then we gotta go pre-1970.
If not "TV Eye" then "Loose". And if all else fails then "Your Pretty Face Is Going to Hell" was infinitely more punk than anything on any early punk album.
