Various - 電撃バップ A Tribute To Ramones

Review by jeishi nndran

The album 電撃バップ A Tribute To Ramones by Various is a tribute to the legendary punk rock band, Ramones. The album features various Japanese artists paying homage to the influential band with their own covers of Ramones' classics. The album is a great mix of different styles and interpretations of Ramones' songs, ranging from fast and furious punk rock to more melodic and pop-oriented tunes.

The album opens with the energetic and catchy cover of "Blitzkrieg Bop" by The 5.6.7.8's, a Japanese rock band known for their surf rock and rockabilly sound. The song sets the tone for the rest of the album, which is full of high-energy and fast-paced tracks. The album also features some of Ramones' most iconic songs, such as "Sheena Is a Punk Rocker," "Rockaway Beach," and "I Wanna Be Sedated."

One of the standout tracks on the album is "Pet Sematary," covered by the Japanese punk rock band, Shonen Knife. The band's signature sound and style perfectly capture the spirit of the original song while adding their own unique twist to it. Another notable track is "Pinhead," covered by the all-female punk rock band, Bleach03. The band's raw and aggressive sound perfectly suits the song's rebellious and anti-authoritarian lyrics.
