Answer to Question 1

formed in NY City in 1974
one of the earliest American punk rock groups
posed a stark contrast to the heavily made-up and costumed glam rockers
had a grungy urban look
Note: history repeated itself in the 1990s when the grunge movement of the 1990s emerged as a reaction against the glam-like visual excesses of the 1980s
eschewed the heavily produced albums common in the pop market
advocated simple, straightforward, and unvarnished recordings
did for punk music in England what the Beatles had done for rock n' roll in America
influenced: Clash, Damned, and Sex Pistols

Answer to Question 2
