That's sort of true for the early UK punk bands but definitely not the US ones. The US bands by and large didn't have any kind of social or political axe to grind in the 70s. I'm also not sure why you you seem to the think railing against the upper class equals railing against art snobs. I realize rich people buy art, but most art snobs I've known in my life pretty much live hand to mouth since the art would isn't particularly profitable for 99.9% of people involved in it.
