Hm. Yeah, it's not bad. Their debut is basically superior in every respect, though.

This is better than their debut, but they are both good.

I agree. For me it's clearly Leave Home> Rocket To Russia > The Ramones > End of the Century > Road To Ruin.

They are all great. The Ramones were just so great for those first 5 years.

Not their best album. I still prefer their debut, but i really enjoy listening to this album
I don't know why people say that this album sucks, and their only great album is the debut
Rocket to Russia Has the energy of their first album and it shows Ramones in their most experienced moment
"Teenage Lobotomy" is Their best song of all time (yeah, better than Blitzkrieg Bop). For me
Rocket to Russia is not bad, it just need to be relistened Smile

Come on guys, Leave Home is the real gem. It has the speed an heaviness of the debut, just brought up a notch. And it's just a more consistent than RtR.

Their version of "Do You Wanna Dance?" is the funniest thing ever when your perception of the song is built around the Beach Boys version.

Never understood the hype around The Ramones ... Or maybe it's because I'm not drunk enough to like it ...
