Description

Ramones – Ramones

Released: 1976 | Sire Records | NZ Pressing | LP

The explosive debut album from Ramones, released in April 1976 and widely recognised as one of the foundational records of American punk rock.

Recorded in just a few days with producer Craig Leon, Ramones strips rock ‘n’ roll down to its essentials: distorted guitars, pounding drums, infectious melodies and songs that rarely outstay their welcome. The album’s influence on punk and alternative rock has been enormous.

Featuring the classic Blitzkrieg Bop, along with Judy Is a Punk, Beat on the Brat, Now I Wanna Sniff Some Glue and I Wanna Be Your Boyfriend, this is an essential piece of punk history.
