13 Bands You Didn't Realise Were One Album Wonders
2. The Sex Pistols
Even if youve never listened to anything by The Sex Pistols, youre well aware of the aura that surrounds them. Never had an album or band contained such anger and vitriol. The Sex Pistols were the sound and the fury and Never Mind the Bollocks is the sort of album that would reach out through your speakers and smash your teeth down your throat and then ask you to do the same back. Its full of bile, blood and as many other bodily fluids as possible. Record stores refused to stock it or chose to censor the label, the band themselves were fired from two different record labels and its their only studio album because they got banned from pretty much every single studio in the area. There was even an obscenity case brought against them because of this album, which they won. They attacked the young and the old, the Queen and country; they were a natural disaster in the shape of a band. The Sex Pistols pretty much initiated the punk movement in the UK and called the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, and I quote, a piss stain when they were inducted. Never Mind the Bollocks is an album that leaves you with scar tissue.
