I honestly don't see how you can say that. They could barely keep themselves on a label, and they never had much success on a broad level while they were together. They were just as involved in the movement as anyone else at the time. They were friends and associates with a lot of the other acts and were looked at as peers by those acts, whether it's the Clash, Souxsie, etc.
