SEX PISTOLS
Never Mind the Bollocks, Here's the Sex Pistols
Submitted by: Kaitlin Saltzer
When someone mentions the Sex Pistols the first word that might come to mind is Anarchy. An•ar•chy: Absence of any cohesive principle, such as a common standard or purpose. (Taken from dictionary.com) Never Mind the Bullocks was the Sex Pistols’ debut album and their skeleton key to the frail minds of its listeners.
The pistols’ “piss off” approach toward life is what gave them that attitude, that sass and that outlandish attraction pulling in masses of young, hungry and impressionable listeners. Emerging from a time of pretty pop melodies, hungry for something more substantial the Pistols came roaring out with a physical presence.
For the first time you could feel the energy, a dangerous almost violent presence of an imminent uproar. Rock n’ Roll became more than just cerebral but a physical craze, something to grasp and live by.
This album concerned the public but excited the outcasts of society with tracks like “God Save the Queen” and “Anarchy in the UK”. Each song on never mind the Bullocks served as an anthem for every teenage misfit and outsider, it compelled them to question the established society and gave them an opportunity to revolt. The Sex Pistols initiated a cultural revolution and served it to the public on a rusty platter. “Never Mind the Bullocks, Here’s the Sex Pistols” is sure to satisfy your craving for rebellion in the form of raw, crunchy riffs and sneering attitude with socially conscious lyrics.
