The Ramones for the most part didn't didn't concern themselves with any of that self-indulgent nonsense, and just did what they knew how to do. That would be awful for most bands, but the Ramones actually knew what their business was.
So their kmusic is for people who can't write songs, but just have fun with it? I think it works better for Family Force Five. All I'm saying is, if I want to have fun with songs that aren't their for writing quality, I'd at least like them to be different from each other.

And to be fair, concerning Wire, Clash, Sex Pistols, and many others, I'd say they knew how to write a hell of a lot better than the Ramones. OIn fact, I honestly felt the Ramones albums got better up to "It's Alive."
