It's not about first cause. Even the Ramones were so idiosyncratic and distinct that they could qualify as proto-punk if you wanted to claim them as such. The first punk band or the last proto-punk band. Either way they were one of those bands sitting back and watching "punk" bands failing to live up to their promise.
