I know every song they ever released.

You're older than dirt though. And I think the Ramones could have been a monstrous sludge band if they could pull off **** like this with this much nihilism. And yes I'm using the demo version cause it's totally on my top 14 when I make it.

It’s impossible to overstate how great that is.

It really is. I remember first hearing that when I bought the remastered debut and just being like "WTF happened to the Ramones and did they make more of this?"

Damn I remember in the early 00's, when nu metal was still relevant and Creed was a thing, my local butt rock station introduced me to music in general. They played A LOT of **** that I lapped up like a good retard, but occasionally they would play this one weird song I always looked forward to but never really got a handle on. It was fun and catchy but also kind of a novelty song so I didn't know if I should take it seriously and laughed it off. And this is why I propose the Ramones never blew up like they should have. Unless you're either older or a child you can't figure out whether or not they're cool without guidance. They're simply too smart for teenagers.

Oh **** "I'm Against It" literally says "I don't like Burger King" so it's my new favorite song.

I can say very honestly, right from the heart, that I love Road to Ruin every bit as much as the first three. When I was around 16 Road to Ruin and Pleasant Dreams were my favorite Ramones records and I don’t think there’s anything at all wrong with that position.

I was fortunate enough to see Rock’n’Roll High School as a pre-teen. I was just like YYYYEEEESSSSSS!!!!!!

Metal tinged hardcore circa 1981. Both SST bands out of LA.

Overkill and Stains

Not to be confused with other bands with the same names. Sometimes referred to as LA Overkill and LA Stains. Both bands deserve more recognition for helping to pioneer that sound.

I feel like this is an interview at this point but what do you think the Ramones had (if anything) over other contemporary bands when they made fast punk songs? For reference and fun:
