They were really good until I discovered bands like Teenage Bottlerocket who play essentially the same music but faster, catchier, and with better production.

And this somehow suddenly made the Ramones bad?

The thing I always liked about the Ramones was you knew it was them the second one of their songs starts because they had such a unique sound.

Most modern punk leaves me cold because I can listen to 100 different bands and barely tell any difference between them.

No, it made them dated.

Well, not to harp on this, but I still can't see how dated = bad.
You're the one who said they "were really good" after all. Good music gets aged, of course, but does it become bad because of that?
(hint: No, it doesn't.)

TB is a crap band, saw them live. They sucked.

Edit: Yes I enjoyed them a lot, but I discovered newer bands that I thought did that 3-chord pop punk sound better, so I listened to them instead.

I saw them live and I thought they put on one of the most fun sets I've seen, so as far as I'm concerned, you're wrong. :finger:

granted that they remade their first four albums over a course of 30 years, but they were great four albums, darnit!

They played average pop-punk music like 99% of all fat Wreck bands, and had no stage presence.. I thought they put on a really boring show.

If you're expecting more, you're doing it wrong. Their music is fun and catchy, there's nothing more to it than that; or The Ramones for that matter.

They were pretty energetic when I saw them, worked the crowd well and all.
