I was too young in the 1970s to listen to punk, but I know from reading about it that some of the early British bands did flirt with Naziism, although this was more as a (dumb, naive) statement of rebellion than an actual political philosophy. Siouxsie and the Banshees for one wore Swastikas and sang a song with a lyric "Too many Jews for my liking".
