Never Mind The Bollocks, Here's The Sex Pistols (studio album) by Sex Pistols

The status this album has is almost entirely based on the punk movement that the Sex Pistols played a massive role in. But the music itself is rarely above mediocre, and usually terrible. There's some decent guitar work here and there, and through the anger and teenage edginess some of the lyrics and songwriting are actually quite interesting, but overall this, like most Punk rock, is bad music.

This is pure punk with it being fuelled by aggression making it a thoroughly enjoyable album to listen to especially when you are looking to release some emotion. Johnny Rotten is the main cause of this with his raw and harsh vocal being a standout across this whole release. He delivers the words with such a venom and bite to them which makes us feel everything he sings. This makes it so easy for us to feel his anger and join in with his passion. The riffs are fantastic as well and back up the vocals strongly with the drums adding an additional franticness to the music. This punk chaos culminates on Anarchy In The UK and God Save The Queen which are just two absolute classics of the genre and elevate this album so much. Overall, this is a classic record of the punk genre that has a few weaker tracks but for the most part it loves up to its hype of being one of the purest punk albums that has ever been released.

Tracks 5 and 8 are masterpieces 😎👍🏻

Alright

Hmmmm, just listened to this album for the first time (though I’ve heard bits and pieces before). I’m a big Oasis fan, and I see the major influence Johnny Rotten has had on Liam Gallagher’s vocal style. The Sex Pistols seem to overall be a big influence on Oasis. I’d say Oasis is a mix between the Beatles and Sex Pistols. I now appreciate this album and the Sex Pistols.

Pure punk rock with great tracks: Holidays In The Sun, Anarchy In The UK, God Save The Queen, there are some low points here too, but attitude is always on point.

Johny Rotten is definitely the best thing about this record, one of the most original vocalists for sure alongside Dylan. The band not so much; they just rip off some Chuck Berry riffs on and on like countless bands before them, though Steve Jones has its moments: the riff of God Save the Queen, the opening to Bodies and the mini-solo to EMI, but overall this band is nothing without Johny Rotten, which is why I prefer The Clash, The Ramones, The Damned or Wire.

Un disco de punk histórico con un estilo marcado que para mala suerte se vuelve repetitivo. Nos encontramos ante el único disco de los Sex Pistols, que contiene canciones históricas para el desarrollo del punk, como Anarchy in the UK y God Save the Queen. Tiene una letra anti sistema propia de la época, agresividad en su ejecución, y quién soy yo para juzgar? Es un disco de culto y muy venerado por los críticos y los fans.

Discazo.
Uno de los discos más influyentes de la historia. Sex Pistols y los Clash, fueron los que más definieron el punk y marcaron estilo para bandas futuras.
Canciones sencillas pero que suenan muy muy bien.
Los singles de este disco pasarán a la historia.
