Our Take

Ah, the Ramones, the band that made punk rock cool before it was cool. Leave Home, their sophomore album, has been given the remastered treatment, bringing their raw energy and iconic sound to a whole new generation of music lovers.

From the opening chords of "Glad to See You Go" to the closing notes of "Carbona Not Glue," this album is a non-stop rollercoaster of fast-paced, three-chord wonders. The Ramones may have been criticized for their simplistic songwriting, but it's that very simplicity that makes their music so damn catchy.

Joey Ramone's nasal vocals are as distinctive as ever, while Johnny Ramone's buzzsaw guitar playing cuts through the mix like a hot knife through butter. And let's not forget about Dee Dee Ramone's frantic bass lines and Tommy Ramone's thunderous drumming, holding everything together with punk rock precision.

Highlights include the anthemic "Pinhead," the cheeky "Suzy is a Headbanger," and the irreverent "Swallow My Pride." The remastered version of Leave Home brings a newfound clarity to the album, allowing listeners to fully appreciate the band's unique sound.

So, if you're looking for a dose of pure, unadulterated punk rock energy, look no further than Leave Home. The Ramones may be long gone, but their music will live on forever in the hearts of music fans everywhere. Hey! Ho! Let's go!

About the artist

Ramones

The Ramones: The Original Punk Pioneers Formed in 1974 in Queens, New York, The Ramones are often credited as the godfathers of punk rock. With their signature fast, loud, and no-frills approach to music, this band brought a raw energy to the music scene that has inspired countless musicians and fans alike. Comprised of Joey, Johnny, Dee Dee, and Tommy Ramone, the band started out playing small clubs in the downtown New York scene, quickly gaining a cult following with their catchy yet simplistic anthems. With songs like "Blitzkrieg Bop" and "I Wanna Be Sedated", The Ramones crafted a sound that was equal parts rebellious and infectious. Their self-titled debut album, released in 1976, is often cited as one of the greatest rock albums of all time, with its relentless pace and anthemic choruses capturing the hearts of listeners worldwide. With a career spanning over two decades, The Ramones released a total of 14 studio albums, leaving a lasting legacy that continues to influence punk and alternative music to this day. Despite their immense influence and critical acclaim, The Ramones never achieved mainstream commercial success during their career. But their impact on the music industry is immeasurable, with their distinct sound and DIY ethos paving the way for countless bands to follow in their footsteps. Even though the original members have all passed away, The Ramones' music lives on, with their timeless songs serving as a reminder of the power of pure, unadulterated rock and roll. So if you're looking to dive into the roots of punk rock, look no further than The Ramones - the band that started it all. Hey ho, let's go!
