first time I heard the Ramones I knew that my satanic, devil worshiping heavy metal was not going to destroy disco. Joey Ramone was. This album wasn’t great music, I recognized that. You weren’t going to get into a discussion about the complexity of time changes. You couldn’t sit around and get stoned with your friends and analyze the lyrics like we did with Pink Floyd. You just listened to it, for the sake of listening and enjoying. It gave me a feeling like there was something more out there, something beyond the layered nuances of Led Zeppelin songs that were really nothing more than Lord of the Rings fanfic. Something so simple, yet so enormous.Favorite song: 53rd & 3rd
