That's true that they didn't sell a lot of albums. Of course,
Never Mind the Bollocks wasn't exactly a chart-topper over here either. But the origins of punk aren't about who moved the most units anyway, it's about where the style came from. To go back to the metaphor I used earlier, Bill Haley may have helped put rock n roll on the map but that doesn't mean it began with him.
