There were thousands of garage bands putting out stuff that were just like them at the same time.
What makes them stand out so much?

There may have been thousands of garage bands around at that time, but Los Saicos were more than likely completely unaware of these bands to be influenced by them. Their only knowledge of American and British music culture was restricted only to the very well known acts.

Furthermore, they put together a sound, image and attitude that was crude enough to be labelled punk many years later. The important aspect about this band though, is that they were presenting their sound and image in a conservative latin environment where saying stuff like "F**k off"! just wasn`t the done thing.

There are a load of links about this band on the web, below is just one.

Thank you for the lesson.
The second wave around 1980 is when "real" punk began in my opinion.

The thread is about who invented punk and not when you thought it was best.

Black Flag? naw... it was already established before they came out. They had an impact on Hardcore, but not punk as a whole... even in hardcore they didn't invent it anymore than Middle Class, DOA, Misfits, Bad Brains or Mentally Ill.
