And if we're talking proto-punk aggression, how about the Monks? Their "Black Monk Time" was so far ahead of it's time it didn't even get released in the US until almost 30 years after it was recorded. It's no coincidence that the Fall have so far covered 3 Monks songs since their basic format - irate, stressed-out guy ranting over two-chord speedfreak garage workouts - is much the same. Ditto some of the Seeds' stuff, like "Evil Hoodoo"or "Excuse, Excuse".
