I've never heard anyone not use the with the Ramones.

With the Swans it started to change after Children of God but by then I had been into them for some while. It's gotten to the point where I can feel it either way. I think it's cool to put the article before singular band names that don't use it like I think it's cool to say the Sonic Youth or the Pig Destroyer. That's like a Germanic thing so whatever.

Damn Frowns Gravity Resistor is ****ing brilliant. Is that you on guitar?
