Ramones - Ramones (180g) (LP)

180g Vinyl LP Remastered

Rolling Stone 500 Greatest Albums of All Time - Rated 47/500

The self-titled debut album for The Ramones was originally released in April 1976. Produced by Craig Leon, the album features various themes including Nazism, violence, drug use, etc.

The Ramones have been given credit for establishing the musical genre 'punk rock' as well as popularizing it years later.

"Clocking in at just under twenty-nine minutes, Ramones is an intense blast of guitar power, rhythmic simplicity and ferocious brevity, a complete rejection of the spangled artifice and hollow, artsy pretensions of 1970s rock. The songs were fast and anti-social, just like the band: "Beat on the Brat," "Blitzkrieg Bop," "Now I Wanna Sniff Some Glue." - www.rollingstone.com

"The Ramones was the guidebook for punk rock - the bible U.K. punks bought on import... The Ramones rescued rock from stasis" - Pitchfork.com

"I love this record - love it... the sheer pleasure of this stuff - which of course elicits howls of pain from the good old rock and roll crowd - is undeniable" - Robert Christgau
