261. Richard Hell & the Voidoids

As another Punk Rock band from New York City, Richard Hell & the Voidoids had a brief recording career but a powerful one. Credited with helping to establish Punk’s look and style, the Voidoids released one album in 1977 which was as good as anything else the genre produced. Whether or not they can get in the strength of that album (they really didn’t do much after that) is debatable, but regardless their contribution to the genre can not be underestimated.
