In my opinion there absolutely brilliant, its punk but the guy's got a brilliant voice in my opinion. Often in punk you just get people with emotion in their voice, but this guy's got a good voice as well. Pet Semetary is one of my favorite songs of all time and they as a band are one of my favorite bands of all time, secound only to Oasis, so opinons peoplez?

Used to love the Ramones in my younger days. Punk isnt my thing now, but when I was about 15-18, I loved them

I love their song Blitzkrieg Pop and I Wanna Be Sedated. Some fun I am. I'm saying the songs everyone knows by them.

I like to listen to them on occasions.
I prefer much more listening to british classic punk like Sex Pistols and The Clash.

Yeah, Ramones might not be British like Sex Pistols and The Clash, but it doesn't mean they aren't punk classics.

That's not what I said, they're classic punk, but I prefer the british ones :)
I still think all Ramones CDs are equal.

No, I'm not calling you racist. I'm just saying that punk first emerged from Britain, so I assumed that you were calling them great because that they were from that area. I mean, Ramones sold much less than The Clash or Sex Pistols. Honest fact.

haha, it's so funny that someone is discussing which punk artist sold more. that's so not punk.
i love the ramones, they're one of my favourite bands and i think they're one of the best bands of all time because of the way they used to see music, like something completely different as it was before.
best albums are the first one, rocket to russia and the ones from the 80's.

So my pals punk band he started when he was 15 are the best then as they'd have only sold about 6 CDs? That's a real misunderstanding of logic.

As for The Ramones. Eh, harmless enough, but they get really repetitive really quickly.

i meant those that are popular among their clubs, and barely known in the world. Ramones are popular in the world, but not the most.
