The Ramones are way better, without a doubt. I like their music more, I feel they had a bigger impact on Punk (I think people overhype The Pistols impact), and unlike The Pistols, The Ramones WEREN'T a manufactured band.

I seriously hate the Pistols with a burning passion, and yet everyone loves them to death. ****ing overrated **** band is what they are.

I can see this is going to be another great discussion, as you have your mind already made up concerning the two bands.
The Sex Pistols may have been manufactured, but the impact they had on the UK music scene in 1976-1978 was quite amazing, as nobody really sounded like them before.
