While i can not think of one band doing a cover on a Sex Pistols song (correct me if i'm wrong). Therefore, since the musicians and I favor the Ramones, they are superior.
I wouldn't be too excited if any of the songs i wrote got covered by those bands.

Sex pistols.
Really don't care if Sid Could not play.
Don't Care about Malcom Mclaren.
Ramones bore me.
And every one seems to have a ramones shirt, if you are going to bring about fanboys.

But if you want a real good punk band...look at the damned.

I wanted to tear my teeth out. I didn't know what I wanted to do. And I want to remember it. I never want to forget it. I never want to forget. And then I realized... like I was shot... like I was shot with a diamond... a diamond bullet right through my forehead. And I thought: My God... the genius of that.
