The central experience of the Ramones and their music is of being
an outsider, an outcast, a person who's somehow defective, and the
revolt against shame and self-loathing. The fans, argues Donna
Gaines, got it right away, from their own experience of alienation
at home, at school, on the streets, and from themselves. This sense
of estrangement and marginality permeates everything the Ramones
still offer us as artists, and as people. Why the Ramones Matter
compellingly makes the case that the Ramones gave us everything;
they saved rock and roll, modeled DIY ethics, and addressed our
deepest collective traumas, from the personal to the historical.
