"London 1975: the historical year the Sex Pistols began their shocking fight to be heard through the fog of stagnation and paralyzing gloom that had fallen over the land. By winter 1976, they were heard loud and clear! The band, and the fans who immediately identified with them as representing the spirit of their new age, had caused a dramatic break with the past. There was horror in the music industry as older musicians and established record companies sensed they had lost control and were about to become outdated if not redundant. The mainstream media, reacting in moral panic to the “uproar”, “rock outrage” and the use of “the filthiest language heard on British television” called for the banning of everything and anything associated with punk." - Caroline Coon
