I've never been a fan of Blondie, so I wouldn't know what they are classified as.

I would say they were more post-punk.
Along with bands like the velvet underground and iggy and the stooges

At first they were headed that way. As BK said, the attitude was there, but the music went the commercial way. I do have just about every old Blondie LP though. Just because they weren't punk doesn't mean they weren't good.

I never viewed blondie as a punk band, plain and simple. It was a diffenent time then and punk wasn't has defined, or over defined as it is now. Although i will still contend that Blondie was not a punk band. No quarterflash isn't either :)

They don't fit the stereotypical punk sound, but they were there at the beginning with bands like the Ramones and the Talking Heads at CBGB's, way back when. The sound wasn't punk, but the attitude definitely was.
