Great video! I may be in the minority but I love End of the Century and Pleasant Dreams. My ranking would be: Love: Rocket to Russia Ramones Pleasant Dreams End of the Century Brain Drain Leave Home Like: Halfway to Sanity Road to Ruin Mondo Bizarro Adios Amigos Don't like that much: Animal Boy Too Tough to Die Subterranean Jungle Acid Eaters
This is pretty in line with my list too, I would have Rocket to Russia in it's own tier, I think it's the clear best. But great (and meh) songs on each record. Thanks for checking out the video!
I saw the Too Tough to Die tour. What a disappointment. Really felt that Dee Dee was barely there and Ritchie driving the band to play their songs at Hardcore pace ruined the entire set list. In a word they Sucked
My ranking: 1. Leave Home 2. Rocket to Russia 3. S/T 4. Road to Ruin 5. Pleasant Dreams 6. Subterranean Jungle 7. Too Tough to Die 8. Adios Amigos 9. End of the Century 10. Animal Boy 11. Halfway to Sanity 12. Mondo Bizarro 13. Brain Drain 14. Acid Eaters.
The debut not being in S tier is legitimately insane. S Ramones Road to Ruin Rocket to Russia A Leave Home Too Tough to Die Adios Amigis B Mondo Bizarro Pleasant Dreams End of the Century C Halfway to Sanity Brain Drain Animal Boy D Subterranean Jungle Acid Eaters
@PunkRockRadar haha it's whatever. People have their opinions. But what killed me was that everyone had an open space in S tier at the end! It's not like there wasn't room for it! Haha
S: Ramones, Leave Home, Rocket to Russia, Road to Ruin A: Too Tough to Die, Brain Drain, Subterranean Jungle, Pleasant Dreams B: Mondo Bizarro, End of the Century C/D: Adiós Amigos, Acid Eaters, Animal Boy, Halfway to Sanity
As someone thst is easily twice your ages I started with Ramones in 78 while in the Army hearing Sheena on AFN radio It blew my mind, and by 1-79 my life became punk rock. Good job here but the first three are all SSS. From Road to ruin forward it was all downhill except for about 1-2 great songs per album.
Thanks so much for checking out the video! I was really apprehensive about doing the video since I'm by no means a Ramones expert, but I'll always appreciate what they did for the scene!
Ever since their sophomore album, The Ramones’ latest album has always been their best album since their last album. I can’t say the same with The Sex Pistols.
Ramones have very few weak albums, maybe only 2 in my opinion. The fact that the first 4 is usually considered the best and everyone has their own opinion on which one of their later ones they think is underrated is very fun. Personally I think Mondo Bizarro and Halfway to Sanity are underrated.
When overproduced disco and pretentious prog rock dominated the music, Ramones gave the finger to the music industry by having their debut take a week to make, feature a handful of chords and have songs about WW2, child abuse, drugs, the streets, etc.
There just comes a point where the bands that they influenced surpassed them, Kind of the reason I never delved in to the 80s/90s stuff. But will always respect them and everything they did for punk rock!
the first album is the most important punk record ever made these kids don't know jesus self titled leave home rocket to Russia end of the century greatest of all time no one No bend will ever come close to Ramones
The debut is meh it's main flaw is the production on it. They literally messed up 53rd & 3rd with Dee Dee's vocals. Thankfully the 40th anniversary mono version saved that song 40 years too late. And honestly the demos are much better. No stiff sounding production And rough n noisy sound.
I like some of the too touch to die. Drink boy is pretty good Self titel is a Classic I like leave To home But some Song. Gimme Gimme Shock Treatment, Which it should be more faster. I like the static x and also the other one ( i don’t remember the band name ) I like rooket to russia But i feel is kinda overrated is some way I like end of centery Adios Amigos! Is pretty good. Mondo Bizarro is ok, I love animal boy I like Subterranean Jungle I like Pleasant Dreams And Fuck people who Said ramones sound the same. Ok yeah But still listing to i love you baby to endless vaction.
Pleasant Dreams is a banger. Don't sleep on that album.
Never understood the lack of love for that album. It’s in my top 5 and it’s consistently good IMHO
Too Tough To Die is my favourite album, too! The first three songs are great!
Great video!

B on the debut!!! WTF It's flawless 🥇
Mondo Bizzaro is my favorite Ramones album
It's their most underrated for sure!
It's Alive....Must have....
Sold my Ramones LPs and this is the only one I wish I hadn’t sold

I never got into them but a great watch nonetheless
Thanks for always supporting Erik! I'm with you, never huge in to the Ramones, but will always appreciate them
Do cj ramone
Ramones have very few weak albums, maybe only 2 in my opinion.
The fact that the first 4 is usually considered the best and everyone has their own opinion on which one of their later ones they think is underrated is very fun.
Personally I think Mondo Bizarro and Halfway to Sanity are underrated.
Powermad Was the band.
Haha. For me animal boy and too tough to die are roughly equal. Never got why people were so high on too tough to die.
Do the story so far
S - What you Don't See, A - Under Soil and Dirt, not too familiar with the rest, but I'm working on a list of this group of bands for a video
And also do ramonescore. I Said before just do a ramonescore epsidoe someday
Ramonescore definitely coming, it lost in a poll on Instagram last week, but we'll still do it at some point
When overproduced disco and pretentious prog rock dominated the music, Ramones gave the finger to the music industry by having their debut take a week to make, feature a handful of chords and have songs about WW2, child abuse, drugs, the streets, etc.
Definitely agree, I'm not the biggest fan, but I'll be forever grateful of what they did for the scene and music in general 🤟
The first 3 ramones albums were amazing but I can’t listen to anything after those
There just comes a point where the bands that they influenced surpassed them, Kind of the reason I never delved in to the 80s/90s stuff. But will always respect them and everything they did for punk rock!

Drink boy is pretty good
Self titel is a Classic
I like leave To home But some Song. Gimme Gimme Shock Treatment, Which it should be more faster. I like the static x and also the other one ( i don’t remember the band name )
I like rooket to russia But i feel is kinda overrated is some way
I like end of centery
Adios Amigos! Is pretty good.
Mondo Bizarro is ok,
I love animal boy
I like Subterranean Jungle
I like Pleasant Dreams
And Fuck people who Said ramones sound the same. Ok yeah But still listing to i love you baby to endless vaction.
