# The Saints

The Saints é uma banda de rock australiana, formada em Brisbane em 1974. É considerada uma das primeiras e mais influentes bandas punk. Em 1975, contemporânea ao Ramones, The Saints tocava com tempos rápidos e guitarras sujas, que caracteriza o punk da década de 70. Com seu primeiro single "(I'm) Stranded", no final de 1976, lançaram gravações antes de bandas mais conhecidas como Sex Pistols e The Clash. De acordo com Bob Geldof, o Rock dos anos 70 foi transformado por três bandas - Sex Pistols, The Ramones e The Saints.
