>You dirty fucker.
I like old punk - dead kennedies, wipers, the clash, heaps of "post-punk" etc....But sex pistols suck.
>>221627512sex pistols is the only punk band that matters
>>221628692Lydon is one of the only true punks who ever lived. PiL is pretty good too.
>>221627512their music is good for classic punk, but nothing great; however, it's their attitude and essence that made them legends. nobody before did it like the pistols, and everyone after used them as inspiration

>>221627354Siouxsie and Severin were in the background in that interview btw, and ended up mogging the Sex Pistols hard
>>221629088I dived into punk a little only in the last couple of years, and even all those decades later no band comes close to the kind of presence Johnny and the Pistols had. Johnny has great vocals but aside from that the music is shockingly mid, pretty much any other punk band that people have heard of blows them out of the water, but man seeing actual footage of them performing and hearing those crazy growls from Johnny, they had some kind of power man. It almost scares me, it makes me feel like I'm the old man complaining about those crazy youngsters getting out of hand or something (idk if that makes sense)
>>221629418favorite groups?
>>221629907Idk I'm more of a post-punk/classic rock guy, but I like Buzzcocks, The Stooges and Siouxsie And The Banshees (they had a bunch of straight up punk songs in their early years). I listened to Rock The Casbah by The Clash like 10 times today, but I don't care for their earlier stuff that still sounds like actual punk rock
>>221630036you'd probably like Ramones and MC5 if you haven't already listened to them. I'd also recommend Black Flag, Stiff Little Fingers, Dead Kennedys, and Descendants, though some might be a little too hard for you. I'm not as well versed in post-punk, but Television and Wire are good
>>221627512Sex Pistols had the best songwriting out of any punk group in music history.
>>221628967Dee Dee Ramone, the brains
>>221630220I fucking love MC5. I happened to come across some Dead Kennedy's today and liked it but wasn't in the mood for stuff that heavy and aggressive (I'm kind of sick). Thanks for the recs bro.
>>221628967Is being a "true punk" even that respectable? It just boils down to being an edgy contrarian really, it gets old and stupid pretty fast
>>221628967First 3 PiL albums are goated post punk
>>221627354>tells a 16 year old girl that he's going to bone her backstageHe really was a dirty old fucker, it's funny how if you'd air this now everyone would think Steve Jones was a hero for saying this but I guess back then saying "fuck" was a a bigger deal than being a big fucking strokey nonce live on national TV
The Sex Pistols are on tour now with some random guy replacing Johnny Rotten kek
>>221627512You're a massive poser
