Sex Pistols

Profile:
The most famous (and infamous) band of the late 70s punk scene. Their rebellious image combined with a commercial sound (partly thanks to producer Chris Thomas) created some of the most memorable moments of the 70s - both musical and otherwise. Line-up: Johnny Rotten (John Lydon, b. January 31, 1956 - vocals), Steve Jones (b. September 3, 1955 - guitar), Sid Vicious (John Ritchie aka John Beverley, b. May 10, 1957 - bass, kind of; replaced original bassist Glen Matlock) and Paul Cook (b. July 20, 1956 - drums).

Inducted into Rock And Roll Hall of Fame in 2006 (Performer).

Review by Crijevo Jul 29, 2007 (edited over 4 years ago)
Well, it's all in history books now - more for their image and massive media exposure, (The) Sex Pistols delivered one sole album which is a collection of previously cut singles plus an endless list of 'Bollocks' replicas afterwards. Without them very little or nothing would be achieved or considered musical democracy and as such they should be greeted for centuries to come as music progresses into new forms and deforms.

The paradox has it, Punk is a hopelessly dated thing regarding three-chord musical philosophy, but its beliefs are what counts - nevermind the fashion tricks McLaren in particular managed to shape up, or countless imitators nowadays.
