Road to Ruin


Punk Hardcore 180 gram vinyl reissue cut from analogue masters with original artwork and original printed bag they'll get better said keith richards of punk musicians in 1977 you can't help but get better and 'road to ruin' is the album that demonstrated the ramones had gotten 'better' at being musicians if not at becoming stars 'i just want to have something to do' is quite simply one of the greatest opening tracks on any rock album ever for the first time johnny actually throws in pyrotechnics that go beyond basic power chords 'i don't want you' is riffdriven punk rock while 'i wanna be sedated' and 'she's the one' are some of their best poppunk but 'road to ruin' also breaks some stylistic barriers 'don't come close' is almost country and western and 'questioningly' is a simple ballad a cover of the searchers' 'needles and pins' is downright reverent though it's sadder than the original
