Misfits deserve to be exonerated of the enormous influence that they somehow cultivated over the years. Really, they're just a worthless punk act who sees more light on the backs of the branded masses than they've ever managed in record players.
I'd like to see far more diamonds-in-the-rough on the list than they decided to recognize. It would have been nice to see some acknowledgment for X-Ray Spex, the Slits, the Ruts, the Gories, etc...
