Pure Hell is often considered one of the first all-Black punk bands, originating in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania in the mid-1970s.

Disclaimer:

This is part of a series of polls I wanted to make. These are bands that are mainly punk, but some do crossover (e.g. fishbone) and because this genre has so many smaller bands running through it, I couldn't possibly add all of them.

I also just wanted to make this so I could get probably some suggestions on BLACK musicians that made/make rock music. It's not a contest, I just want to see which musicians some people like and for this to be a way for people to discover them.
