Sex Pistols NeverMind The Bollocks

For me the best punk album of all time. This is a truly outstanding album by the first and, in my opinion the greatest punk band ever. The album has a strong guitar "attack", a word used too often but in this case most definetly true.I feel bad for the Pistols as if they had coninued with Glen Matlock instead of taking Sid Vicious then they could still be going today with new material (althought they are playing a bout of re-union shows). This album is one of the most rare kinds of album. One that all the tracks stand out and appeal.johnny Rotten and Glen Matlock's lyrics are either good or bad on this record. Songs like "God Save the Queen" or "Anarchy In The UK" have outstanding lyrics but other tracks like "Bodies" are really bout nothing. The lyrics are on this album sometimes a jest like on "EMI" were Lydon and co. attack the record company and sometimes on serious matters like politics.

The Reliever

It seemed as if it was to be an average normal day at Whangaparaoa college. Students an the odd teacher made a last minute dash for there fourth and final class of the day. some were lucky and had p.e or music something easy going that didn't require the brain drain the other classes unfortunately... i wasn't one of these lucky students I on the other hand had science! Yes you heard right. SCIENCE! the single worst subject that did torment the minds of students alike. I was no different to anyone else and despised the near fatal torture that was science but that was before one day when the most unusual thing happened...

I stepped into class gritting my teeth expecting the worst only to find the light at the end of the tunnel ( and trust me that tunnel was very dark) A RELIEVER. I was so Excited I swear a light shone down from the heavens like in one of those corny movie scenes right on to the relievers unsuspecting head. I could tell i wasn't the only one thrilled that he was here as people talked and pondered on what he was going to be like. that was except for the science nerds in the corner who seemed to sneer at the relievers presence in there beloved class. we took our seats as usual except there was a little extra talking than usual then with one loud boom of his voice "SHUT UP!!!!" the class fell into a cold dark silence everyones attitude had changed instantly from ohhh yaay reliever!! to oh crap we've got a reliever. I then looked over at the reliever to study him closer and then it hit me this dude had a hangover. the news spread quickly through the class it had been five minutes since the teachers booming command caught our attention and he had said nothing since and sat staring at the ceiling with one of those looks that said i really wish i wasn't here. now with the whole class aware of the teachers state. a plan was quickly devised to take advantage of this situation have the best possible experience with a reliever...
