Classics: Anarchy in the UK


Original video located here. Accessed 2nd February 2010

Song title: Anarchy in the UK

Artist: Sex Pistols

Year: 1977

Why I like this song:

The benchmark for all punk bands to match and the inevitable conclusion of my teen years spent being interested in punk rock (as teenagers tend to do). Raw power in full-flight accompanied by some guitar work that is demented, chaotic and full of maniacal glee. Throw a lead singer roaring his way with glee and staking a claim of being the Antichrist that no one can argue, and you have something that no one has been able to match since.
