I dont believe that Sex Pistols were that influential as they say. Same goes with Beatles. Has Sex Pistols influenced some true punkrock masterpieces? Zen Arcade, no way. The Minutemen were more influenced by Captain Beefheart. Fugazi was influenced by Led Zeppelin and funk music. If u ask me, i think the Ramones were much more influential punk band.

While both those bands are quite good, I wouldn't say that either has produced anything distinctly better than never mind the bollocks.
It was not a pile of crap, it was just different.

Yes john so London Calling is a better album. No disagreement there.
Never Mind the Bollocks is still good.

But you were supposed to hate The Sex Pistols, they were a very confrontational band. Also, they pretty much preached nihilism... what are they going to say that isn't supposed to piss you off? They're really serious about not being serious, just fuck all and do what you want. Their image was first, but the music is pretty good. I love this album- they are not in the top 20, but they sure as hell one of my favorites. They aren't the first, aren't the best, but the energy behind them is incredible. Overrated? I would take this nearly any day of the week (unless it's the Clash, of course).

on the topic of nevermind the bollocks though. i do agree with max that it takes a lot of time to like them. bollocks was one of the first punk albums i got (along with inflamable material) and i thought it was way to raw but is now one of my favorite albums and did influence punk a great deal

Even if you don't like it, the influence of Never Mind the Bollocks cannot be ignored. It redefined what rock could be, and countless bands copied their independent, raw style. Arguably more influential than london calling or a lot of the beatles' stuff.

when you first hear the sex pistols, you will probably hate them. give them time, because they are really good.

I shall be frank. I think the Sex Pistols are absolutely terrible. I think their songs are shit, the lead singer sounds like nails on a blackboard whilst the owner of the nails screams because someone is kicking him.

They're just bloody terrible. Anarchy in the UK is supposedly one of the greatest songs of the 70s, I'd rather listen to bloody Mariah Carey, at least she can sing for christ's sake X_X

I love them both, and in fact i think you can´t find in the entire history of music an album that has had the impact on music as Nevermind the bollocks did. As you can read on wikipedia, "it created the first generation gap within rock n roll".

And it is not only the fans, but the critics who agree. In 1987 Rolling Stone magazine voted it as the 2nd most influential album of past 20 years, only behind sgt peppers. And you can find many more examples.

Anyway, i understand you don´t like it, since punk music doesn´t please to many people, but its influence over music has been amazing.

Regards.

I agree, I bought Nevermind and Nevermind the Bollocks. They're both wildly overated. Better off with The Stranglers (punk) and Pearl Jam & In Utero (Nirvana's 3rd album) (grunge) ❗ ❗ ❗ ❗ 😜

Many people claim that the birth of punk was with that album, almost in the same way people say that grunge was born with Nirvana's Nevermind, that may be the reason you weren't as pleased with it.
Overrated and overhyped and lacking in greatness.
