The Sex Pistols' only studio album, 1977's Never Mind the Bollocks, Here's the Sex Pistols was called "just about the most exciting rock & roll records of the Seventies" in Rolling Stone's original review. A quarter-century later, with none of the album's scathing fury and massive influence diminished, the magazine ranked this title #41 on it's list of the "500 Greatest Albums of All Time" and rightly deemed it, "the Sermon on the Mount of English punk.

This album is now available on 180-gram virgin vinyl.

Already anthemic songs are rendered positively transcendent by Johnny Rotten's rabid, foaming delivery. His bitterly sarcastic attacks on pretentious affectation and the very foundations of British society were all carried out in the most confrontational, impolite manner possible. Most imitators of the Pistols' angry nihilism missed the point: Underneath the shock tactics and theatrical negativity were social critiques carefully designed for maximum impact. Never Mind the Bollocks perfectly articulated the frustration, rage, and dissatisfaction of the British working class with the establishment, a spirit quick to translate itself to strictly rock & roll terms. The Pistols paved the way for countless other bands to make similarly rebellious statements, but arguably none were as daring or effective. It's easy to see how the band's roaring energy, overwhelmingly snotty attitude, and Rotten's furious ranting sparked a musical revolution, and those qualities haven't diminished one bit over time. Never Mind the Bollocks is simply one of the greatest, most inspiring rock records of all time. ~ Steve Huey, All Music Guide
