None of the above. You don't want the fist album. You definitely do not want to see the video.

I sure hope they leave the headline exactly the way it is.

They were in the forefront of punk. A fist album was probably the least of their works.

That was awesome thanks. Just started listening to alot more punk and "Hey! Ho! Lets Go! The Anthology" was one of the first things I picked up.

I'm continually amazed by how pitch-perfect Joey's singing was. Rare for a punk singer. Rare for any singer. Guy had a fantastic ear.

R-A-M-O-N-E-S RaMONES!!!!

One of the nice things about being 40 and having a wife who was in radio for 12 years is that I saw The Ramones twice - on the Gabba Gabba Hey and the Adios Amigos tours. Both times in club gigs with
/Hey ho, lets go get off my lawn

theres always a fist.

I probly sounded something like that in 74 only slightly worse.

Great to see some nice Italian boys making a fist of it...

Ingleesh, we owns it (new window)

I'll most assuredly catch hell for this, but f it, it's an anonymous forum - I completely get The Ramones' influence and understand their place in the grand scheme of punk/college/indie/alt whatever you want to call it, but my god I just don't give a shiat about their music.

Blasphemy, I guess. They bore me to death.

Nah, they're not for everybody. At least you didn't post something ignorant like "I don't like them therefore they suck." To me, they had a unique sound, image, and spirit all wrapped up in the perfect package. They're just so damn likeable. I could listen to them for hours.

What a coincidence...I submitted a different Ramones video with a better, properly spelled headline....

/Just to break up the virtuoso pissing contest for a moment, here's the Ramones

That was my thought. One great thing about The Ramones. Even if you can only take them in small doses you still get to hear about 10 songs before you get tired of them.

I did too.

Of course I was only 4.

I pretty much agree with Gangway Fathead.
They just kept making the same record over again for their entire career.
So obviously not a Ramones fan here, but that video just plain kicks ass. 1975! Years ahead of their time. I completely understand why people worship them.

Kevin Shields also says some neat things about them here:

(I forget in what segment, so just watch the whole thing. I mean, it's Kevin Shields being interviewed by Ian Svenonius for chrissakes.)

You Ramones haters who are complaining about their simplicity.

The point... I think you are missing it!

You can say the same stuff about Chuck Berry, or BB King, or Jackson Pollock for that matter.

It's great art nonetheless.

Now back to your Dream Theater records, the rest of us are gonna rock.

 
goodbomb 2008-07-28 07:25:18 AM  
thank you. this is the best ramones video i've ever seen. spectacularly perfect. the best thing about them may be that they have such great songs. badassness and heart. completely pithy.

you're a mouth baby
you better shut up
i'm gonna beat you up
cuz you're a loudmouth babe

next time
i'll listen to my heart
next time
well i'll be smart

etc.

geniuses. my favorite band.

 
goodbomb 2008-07-28 07:26:03 AM  
dang it. *loud*mouth.

 
wolfzr2 2008-07-28 12:14:10 PM  
Nice. I was lucky enough to see them in 1995 with White Zombie...

You never forget your fist.
