Ramones
is the debut studio album by American punk rock band Ramones, released on April
23, 1976 by Sire Records. After Hit Parader editor Lisa Robinson saw the band
at a gig in New York City, she wrote about them in an article and contacted
Danny Fields, insisting that he be their manager. Fields agreed and convinced
Craig Leon to produce Ramones, and the band recorded a demo for prospective
record labels. Leon persuaded Sire president Seymour Stein to listen to the
band perform, and he later offered the band a recording contract. The Ramones
began recording in January 1976, needing only seven days and $6,400 to record
the album. They used similar sound-output techniques[clarification needed] to
those of the Beatles and used advanced production methods by Leon.
The
album cover, photographed by Punk magazine's Roberta Bayley, features the four
members leaning against a brick wall in New York City. The record company paid
only $125 for the front photo, which has since become one of the most imitated
album covers of all time. The back cover depicts an eagle belt buckle along with
the album's liner notes. After its release, Ramones was promoted with two
singles, which failed to chart. The Ramones also began touring to help sell
records; these tour dates were mostly based in the United States, though two
were booked in Britain.
Violence,
drug use, relationship issues, humor, and Nazism were prominent in the album's
lyrics. The album opens with "Blitzkrieg Bop", which is among the
band's most recognized songs. Most of the album's tracks are uptempo, with many
songs measuring at well over 160 beats per minute. The songs are also rather
short; at two-and-a-half minutes, "I Don't Wanna Go Down to the
Basement" is the album's longest track. Ramones contains a cover of the
Chris Montez song "Let's Dance".
Ramones was unsuccessful commercially, peaking at number 111 on the US Billboard 200, though it received glowing reviews from critics. Many later deemed it a highly influential record, and it has since received many accolades, such as the top spot on Spin magazine's list of the "50 Most Essential Punk Records". Ramones is considered an influential punk album in the US and UK, and had a significant impact on other genres of rock music, such as grunge and heavy metal. The album was ranked at number 33 in Rolling Stone's 2012 list of the 500 Greatest Albums of All Time[1] and was certified gold by the Recording Industry Association of America in 2014.
