AMG Review of Never Mind the Sex Pistols, Here's the Tribute

Tom Schulte
All Music Guide

Sometimes a movie makes a band more real, gives them a large-than-life identity. Such is the case of the Sex Pistols, a group seen by more in #The Greatest Rock-n-Roll Swindle and #Sid and Nancy than from the stage. Radical Records' tribute album Never Mind the Sex Pistols: Here's the Tribute similarly takes that exaggerated identity to try and magnify more underground talent through punk rock bands covering Sex Pistols classics. These groups include Blanks '77, Murphy's Law, and Road Rage, the group allegedly started by Sid Vicious' mom.
