  • Is Sid Vicious' mother responsible for his death? Learn more about this mystery, the truth behind if KISS is a brand or a band, and Banksy's true identity on Music's Greatest Mysteries Sunday, December 6th at 9/8c.
    One of the biggest mysteries in punk rock music is Sid Vicious. On February 2nd, 1979, Sex Pistols bassist, Sid Vicious was found dead in New York City. This was less than four months after the death of girlfriend, Nancy Spungen. The couple was a punk rock Romeo and Juliet, but their love story was tainted with drug addiction. Their relationship led to the break up of Sex Pistols and the death of Spungen in a New York City hotel during a party. While we'll never know exactly what happened in that hotel room, Vicious was accused of the murder. He was arrested, bailed out, and then returned to prison for assaulting a man, but just 55 days later he was released and his "release party" would ultimately lead to his death. His own mother threw the party and gave him the drugs that ended his life. Is his mother responsible? Did Vicious have a suicide pact? We investigate on Music's Greatest Mysteries. Watch all-new episodes on AXS TV every Sunday at 9/8c.

    I'm not sure if it was an accident on the night, but what was so scary was she died with a needle in her arm, 1996 during pistols comeback tour.

    55 days clean in jail, returns to heroin, most likely too high of a dose for a recently clean person. Mystery solved.

    Sid was on heroin when he was 15, long before the sex pistols.

    It's a story that's happened many times, he had detoxed in jail and the first thing he wanted to do was shoot up. He had a bad first shot and they hid it from him but eventually he wanted another. His Mom made the next one, she had most likely already did hers, being a complete idiot junkie or something else we'll never know but it killed him. Janis Joplin did the same thing, what she was used to, after detoxing for over a month you can't do that it suppresses your respiratory system. Just like in today's time with the fentanyl, that shit outside a hospital setting your luck will run out. I've had fentanyl, it makes me sicker than a dog, there is absolutely no fun in that high!

    He wanted to die,and if he`d known in 1978 what 2022 would look like he would have been even more glad he did,and I don`t blame him,I feel the same,

    I think Punk was more aligned with disco music and more a counter to Ultra Progressive Rock and soft rock. Maybe I'm wrong but they had disco music in the Great Rock and Roll Swindle and it was Rad. Sid was meant to be a front man. If heroin would not have ruined him, I think he would have made Never Mind The Bollocks Part 2 😊

    I've got a huge sex pistols collection, 250 items met John and Glen, sid was an interesting guy, articulate at times in the interview shame he lived up to the image in the end, suds mum bought a house in Swadlincote only 2 hours away from where I live. Sorry meant sid oops sure sid would forgive me, he was a basic on bass but did have a great singing voice.first single I had was cmon everybody, I'm not sure what happened that night, but sid could have be an innocent man ?
