Heavy Rock

Over at Fast N' Bulbous, Fester makes a strong argument for putting proto- and 1st generation-punk, early heavy metal, early 70's funk, and a few other hard rock noise merchants into a super genre called Heavy Rock. Not only did Lester Bangs and such use the term back in the day, but it moves away from having to slice finer and finer microgenres for each subculture. It would be unifying.

Plus, the first album on the list is Fun House. What's not to love?
