Sex Pistols: back for sloppy seconds
- Artists:
- Sex Pistols »
The Sex Pistols return on November 8 with a performance at London’s Brixton Academy, ahead of the 30-year anniversary reissue of their quaint classic Never Mind The Bollocks.
The album is to be issued along with its offshoot singles on vinyl throughout October, with NME even launching a campaign to get God Save The Queen to number one after it was controversially kept off the top spot by Rod Stewart for its original 1977 release.
The single is released October 8, the same date which also sees releases from Metronomy, Pete And The Pirates, The Maccabees, Patrick Watson and Nine Black Alps. Or you could just download some Rod Stewart instead.
Tickets are on sale from Friday August 21.

sex pistols, eh?
name IS familiar
but
can't quite place 'em
Didn't they have some kind of comeback thing in the mid-90's?
I'm sure I remember them playing Pretty Vacant on Top Of The Pops when I was 12.
i take it thats meant to say 1st sept
or tickets have been on sale a good few weeks..
There just aren't enough reunions these days.
Surely at least the sex pistols would hate each other enough so they didn't get back together.
Can DiS
set up a counter-campaign to get whichever Rod Stewart song it was back to number one instead?
Shit band
Fuck off please. Punk = zzzz nowadays.
how delighfully anti-establishment of them
reforming for a lucrative concert to promote a "classic" Q magazine album. TOTALLY FUCKING PUNK
lydon
you are a dick
Why no...
...Public Image Ltd Reunion?
Much more worthwhile band.
Well that's good
it's been a while since the reformation for the 27th anniversary or whatever.
Only for the money
but, seeing as they made no money from being The Sex Pistols, one of the most important bands ever, I don't have a problem with them raking it in now - I wouldn't go to see them, but my vinyl of 'Bollocks' needs replacing.
oh for gods sake
anyone who still actually thinks the Sex Pistols care about what punk is or isn't are LOOKING for excuses to be elitist.
They're a pop band, get over it.
well
funny how much they're like pretty standard pop songs.
