Spunk

The Sex Pistols' infamous album, Spunk, is a raw and unapologetic punk masterpiece that embodies the rebellious spirit of the late 1970s. Released on 1 January 1977 via Sanctuary Records, this proto-punk gem clocks in at 56 minutes, taking listeners on a chaotic journey through 14 tracks of unbridled energy.

From the opening notes of 'Seventeen' to the unedited version of 'No Fun', Spunk is a testament to the band's ability to craft catchy, yet defiantly anti-establishment songs. The album's tracklist is a veritable who's who of punk classics, including 'Submission', 'Problems', and 'Liar', as well as reworked versions of their own songs, such as 'Nookie (Anarchy In the U.K.)' and 'Lots of Fun (Pretty Vacant)'.

The Denmark Street Demos, featured on the album, offer a glimpse into the band's creative process, with rough-around-the-edges versions of 'Anarchy In the UK' and 'Pretty Vacant' showcasing the Sex Pistols' unique blend of chaos and melody. With Spunk, the Sex Pistols cemented their status as pioneers of the punk movement, influencing generations of musicians to come. This album is a must-listen for fans of the genre, and a powerful reminder of the Sex Pistols' enduring legacy.
