But it wasn't though.
There might have been the odd band around before but none of them really did anything. It wasn't until the UK bands came alone that it became a movement.
It's no coincidence that as soon as the UK thing happened these American bands came over to the UK trying to align themselves to it. And a lot of the British punks hated them for trying to hijack the movement & saw them as drugged up aging hippies that had no place with them.
