Great article Nicholas! This exactly describes the kind of band that The Velvet Underground was. I like that you thoroughly explained the harkening image that Lou Reed and John Cale’s innovations gave to the band’s music. The accomplishments of these two artists cannot be underplayed. You may be right that punk music would not exist as it does today if not for the influence of the Velvet Underground. Countless artists clearly drew inspiration from the band’s unorthodox musical style. Overall this is a great article and it is very informative as to the band that had a large part in the development of the punk genre.
