And far more entertaining to watch on camera.

I find Ramones pretty uninteresting, so Sex Pistols for me.

I change my mind, I prefer Ramones.
I just realised how goddamn repetetive the Sex Pistols are, even for a punk band.
Like, they only made one studio album, yet their entire discography sounds way too similar.

The ramones can get pretty same-ey, but a lot less than the Sex Pistols. Plus, at least the ramones changed slightly from album to album.

I think they both were pretty samey and lacked variety but excelled in what they did. The thing that makes the Ramones stand out for me was their lack of pretense. They just wanted to have some kicks. The Sex Pistols... they got caught up with this whole bogus pseudo-ideology crap and yeah, they definitely had a lot to genuinely rebel against but it just never seemed to me like they meant it. Sincerity > Intrigue, for me anyways.

Well said man i agree..

The sex pistols weren't bad but they had a self destructive attitude that was gonna inevitably bring them down, The Ramones to their credit never played in to that attitude and that's why they had a better career.

I gotta say though the Sid & Nancy movie was pretty cool.
