next to the beatles and other bands that transend music the sonics are about as important a band as any band at any time in history the were where garage music came from

The Sonics were so far beyond any band during their time that it is not hard to believe that some of you don’t get it. But to “diss” them as a band? Go listen to your fuckin Justin Timberlake records while sittin on the couch in your Kiss shorts!!!

yesterday I discover The Sonics music and I have to say ther are a bunk a good musicians and ai like ther aproache that they tooked uit ther still/ ther are for me rhait ther uit the animals, the stooges, the rolling stones and the yardbyrds

One of the best shows I’ve ever seen.
In their sixties? You’d never know it
if you heard the audio alone. Hipsters
bands take note: there is a correct
and defined way to play 3 chord rock.
The sonics definitely know the right
way to do it.

to all you ignorant fuckbags: come on up to Seattle and get your ass kicked

p.s. - gene simmons and company put on their girly makeup and heels because they weren’t good enough to cut it straight up. chew on that, and the fact that gene simmons = satan…

So sad to read such comments on the Rolling Stone web site… well… they will never how much of a genius Gerry Roslie really is. The Sonics gave an awesome show in Brooklyn and those who weren’t there will never understand.

all you fuckheads that say that the sonics sucks, are a bunch of bastards. Gene simmons is a fucking wanker. The sonics is better than kiss will ever be..

Jimi Hendrix TRANSCENDS a shithole like Seattle!!!

If you are going to diss Seattle, you are also dissing Jimi Hendrix.

THEY SUCK

yeh. rolling stone used to be a commie hippy rag that railed against the establishment. Now YOU’RE THE MAN!!!! sad, sad, sad.

Oh no, not more incoherent shit from Seattle. Gene Simmons said it, and I’m starting to agree, Seattle destroyed rock and roll. Well, at least we were able to pull one genius out of the fire. Go FOOs! Come to think of it, he’s actually from Virginia. Yeah, fuck Seattle.

AMAZING
