Today's Most overrated band: The Ramones

prole-art-threat [Edit] [Delete] 14:38, 2 April '07

A new feature of course.

Contextually quite jolly but looked at on the whole as workmanlike, a sort of New York Status Quo lead by a staunch Republican who forced the band to churn out mechanically reformed versions of their first album for at least 19 years after they peaked. Of course its sad three of them are dead and Joey Ramone always looked very awkward, but in the aftermath and deification they were really very ordinary, and only exist now to sell us an 'ideal' in the shape of a T shirt and Rockaway Beach.
