Overview Edit

Never Mind the Bollocks, Here's the Sex Pistols is the first and only studio album recorded by the Sex Pistols, a highly influential and controversial English punk band. Fans and critics alike generally regard the album as an extremely important record in the history of rock music, citing the lasting influence it has had on subsequent punk musicians and other musical genres that were influenced by such punk rock artists.

The album was released on 28 October 1977 on the Virgin Records label amid controversy arising from the use of the obscenity (in British English) "bollocks" in its title.

Older versions of most of the album's songs also appeared on a bootleg album called Spunk, which consists of demo recordings the band had made during 1976 and January 1977, and which was released shortly before Never Mind the Bollocks.

3 stars Never Mind the Overreaction
This album earns at least three stars only for its historical significance. Yes, it was a groundbreaking milestone, and for that, one must give it its due. It broke ground in much the same way "All In The Family" broke ground in television by being the first show in which four-letter words were allowed to be used. The Sex Pistols were the first to lift the rock and make us all look at the worms underneath. Yes, they had a lot of energy, but negative energy is not necessarily entertaining just be…
