Never Mind the Bollocks, Here's the Sex Pistols (Music)	comment	Never Mind the Bollocks, Here's the Sex Pistols is the debut studio album by The Sex Pistols, released in 1977 through Virgin Records in the UK and Warner (Bros.) Records in the US. Discounting the soundtrack The Great Rock 'N' Roll Swindle as well as their live albums, it is also their only album.note Though a lot of compilations have followed, mostly with singles and/or live recordings which didn't appear on this album.Infamous, controversial and very influential, it's seen as one of the greatest, most influential and most important rock albums in music history. It's also considered a bridge in rock history between the psychedelic and art rock era of the late 1960s and the back-to-basics simple rock sound of late 1970s punk and new wave.The record collects four of the group's hit singles: "Anarchy in the UK", "God Save the Queen", "Holidays in the Sun" and "Pretty Vacant" and adds a handful of other songs. Guitarist Steve Jones played bass for the vast majority of the album, and the infamously incompetent Sid Vicious "plays" bass on only one song ("Bodies"). Former bassist Glen Matlock appears on "Anarchy in the UK".A documentary about the creative process behind the making of this album can be seen in the Classic Albums TV documentary series.

Never Mind the Bollocks, Here's the Sex Pistols (Music) / int_14beeefd	comment	Darker and Edgier: Certainly at the time no album with such controversial lyrics had ever gotten so much mainstream publicity. The sound is far more raw, vulgar, confrontational, aggressive and political than any of the pop and rock bands that were popular at the time.

Never Mind the Bollocks, Here's the Sex Pistols (Music) / int_2937826d	comment	Hurricane of Puns: "Pretty Vacant": "We're pretty vacant", with a lot of emphasis on the final syllable. "Submission" was born when manager Malcolm McLaren advised the group to write a song about submission in a sado-masochistic context. Just to annoy them the group took the title literally and wrote a song about a submarine mission. There's plenty of winking double entendres in the song to submission, but they're intentionally ridiculous exclusively to annoy McLaren. There's also the line in "Anarchy in the UK" that can be understood as either "I use the enemy" or "I use the NME", the influential British music magazine.

"God Save the Queen" attacks the Royal Family and British society in general "Anarchy in the UK"' criticizes the United Kingdom. "New York" tackles the New York Dolls, which was answered with equal hatred by Johnny Thunders in his song "London Boys." "EMI" is a scathing attack at their former record company. "Seventeen" and "New York" fire at hippies.

Never Mind the Bollocks, Here's the Sex Pistols (Music) / int_c75df49a	comment	Shout-Out: The line "everybody knows Japan is a dishpan" in "New York" is a reference to Captain Beefheart's song "Japan in a Dishpan" from Lick My Decals Off, Baby. The opening riff of "Pretty Vacant" was inspired by the opening riff of "S.O.S." by ABBA. Considering that "New York" is a diss track on the New York Dolls, the constant references to "pills" and a "kiss" in the song are references to the New York Dolls songs "Pills" and "Looking for a Kiss".

Never Mind the Bollocks, Here's the Sex Pistols (Music) / int_d45c0b86	comment	Refuge in Audacity: This is a band playing simplistic melodies about controversial topics with a lead singer who sounds horrible. During "Holidays in the Sun" Rotten declares he "was waiting for the Communist call". In "No Feelings" and "Pretty Vacant" the band sings about crime and violence and their lack of empathy. And they dare to address taboos such as abortion ("Bodies"), religion ("No Feelings"), English society ("Anarchy In The UK") and the Royal Family ("God Save the Queen").
