As discussed on the AIP Records website and in reviews of the album during its initial release, the album was given the name \"Ear-Piercing Punk\" to try to market or turn this music, now often referred to as proto punk, on to kids just getting into punk rock for the first time as a result of the 1970s punk explosion. The purpose of the album was to show that punk had existed for quite a number of years prior to the generally accepted mainstream use of the term to define bands such as the Ramones, Sex Pistols and The Clash."@en . . . . . . .
