E 1-2-3-4! ETHWith that quick count-off four hoppin' cretins from
Queens who called themselves the Ramones launched the 1970s musical
revolution known as punk rock. And ever since popular music hasn't
been the same. Perhaps the most imitated band of all time the
Ramones stripped rock 'n' roll down to its bare bones and beating
heart and handed it back to the people making it fun again and
reminding everyone that hey they could do this too.THBut da
brudders didn't just influence their key comrades in the original
punk explosion. Their raw tough sound and divine gift of enduring
melodic songcraft has power-drilled its way into musical styles as
divergent as college rock power pop hardcore punk thrash metal
grunge and the avant-garde and continues to be felt in newer waves
of young acts. And what about the music that influenced the Ramones
themselves a early rock 'n' roll surf rock British Invasion sounds
garage rock girl groups hard rock bubblegum proto-punk and glam
rock? Or the nonmusical stuff that also warped the skulls beneath
those trademark bowl haircuts a weird movies cartoons trashy TV
shows comic books and other cultural jetsam? It's all here just
waiting for you to discover and dig. Hey Ho Let's Go!
