The Ramones

I have no doubt that in this point you don't know who the Ramones are. But in my most rebellious and youthful days I was listening to Norma Jean or Bright Eyes, not Black Flag or Bad Brains. In fact, a lot of these bands were reduced to Hot Topic t-shirts for me, which is pretty depressing considering what they were doing way back when. So later, I thought to my self, "Hey, punk rock is kind of an important musical movement, and it's actually way more listenable than bands like the Locust or !!! which are bands whose albums I have owned at one point or another and they are mostly unpleasant to listen to." So I retroactively got into the Clash and the Ramones at an embarrassingly late age but oh well.
