To me, they're very different. What do you get from them that you don't get from other punk bands?

I've never been against punk or disliked it, but yesterday I was at Parkpop (Europe's biggest free festival) in The Netherlands, and the Buzzcocks were performing. Now I know why so many people dislike punk, it was just terrible, the guitar player screwed up a solo of two notes and the music sounded like nothing more than just noise.
I do like the proto-punk of the Stooges though.

Strange. I always heard good thing about the Buzzcocks. I guess the sound was bad, because they are from anything noisy on their records, rather "poppy".

Yes, I know the solo is supposed to consist of only 2 notes, but he failed at playing those 2 notes without any mistake.

I've seen the Buzzcocks a couple of times. Once was great, the other not quite (Diggle's guitar was too loud and I think he'd been drinking...).
