THE SEX PISTONS
The thing about the Sex Pistols is you get a genuine high from the energy they created! People’s misconception of them was it was all angry and anti everything etc. and yeah it was to a degree, coz everyone at the time was walking around like mild versions of Noddy Holder (bless him!). The truth of the matter is Johnny Rotten was, and still is, on the side of the working class! He spoke the truth and was fed up with you being used and abused! That and the fantastic explosive music that backed it all up was the Sex Pistols!
