Joey, Johnny, Dee Dee, and Tommy started a punk revolution with fourteen hilarious nuggets of pure rock and roll passion. Clocking in at less than thirty minutes, these songs condense the essence of rock into four chords played at a furious pace. Drawing from the sounds of early rock and roll, doo-wop, surf and garage rock; the Ramones twisted and distorted those influences with their own deliberately offensive subject matter. They were flipping off the cerebral, self-important artists with their fast, loud, lowbrow, no nonsense style; and, in the process, inspired a generation.
Joey would consider: "Doing an album in a week and bringing it in for $6,400 was unheard of, especially since it was an album that really changed the world. It kicked off punk rock and started the whole thing—as well as us."

'Blitzkrieg Bop' compares the punk onslaught to the Nazi "lightning war".
Hey ho, let's go! hey ho, let's go!
Hey ho, let's go! hey ho, let's go!
They're forming in straight line
They're going through a tight wind
The kids are losing their minds
The blitzkrieg bop
They're piling in the back seat
They're generating steam heat
Pulsating to the back beat
The blitzkrieg bop
Hey ho, let's go
Shoot'em in the back now
What they want, I don't know
They're all revved up and ready to go
They're forming in straight line
They're going through a tight wind
The kids are losing their minds
The blitzkrieg bop
They're piling in the back seat
They're generating steam heat
Pulsating to the back beat
The blitzkrieg bop
Hey ho, let's go
Shoot'em in the back now
What they want, I don't know
They're all revved up and ready to go
They're forming in straight line
They're going through a tight wind
The kids are losing their minds
The blitzkrieg bop
They're piling in the back seat
They're generating steam heat
Pulsating to the back beat
The blitzkrieg bop
Hey ho, let's go! hey ho, let's go!
Hey ho, let's go! hey ho, let's go!
