[@martinashton5792]

One of the most underrated bands of all time …… brilliant

[@ab8057]

100%

[@miguelmoreno9124]

Underrated? No way. They´re simply "too British" in style, and they did it on purpose (despite Weller´s later internationalism).

[@permaveg]

The thing with the Rods was at the time they became known Punk was on the rise, and singer Barrie didn't want anything to do with punk, which was unfortunate because being aware of the music scene of 75-77 the Rods, like Dr.Feelgood, were a major influence in Britain for the emerging punk scene for their fast playing and attitudes.

[@MisterSorgot]

Sonics rendez-vous band is in competition. If we really want to call it competition

[@theiceman6941]

"They never really mattered - ignore them anyway"! Yeah!!!! 😊

[@MattAttack54]

Great great tune Paul gray is still rocking with the Damned

[@Skybluewarrior]

RIP Barrie! One of the best bands ever

Greatrocknrollpunkrock bands of70s there great!

[@CruSheRoO91]

wow this song is awesome! found it coincidentally

[@TurtleFrack]

How do you find something "coincidentally"? Don't you mean "incidentally"? You might also want to check out Generation X if you like this one.

[@dagobertofernandez8074]

Excelente banda 👍👌 rico SUENAN UNOS MAESTROS DE LA BUENA MUSICA!!!!!! esto las nuevas generaciones JAMÁS van a súperar INFLUENCIA; SANGRE; SUSTANCIA!!!!!!

[@magiccat4316]

[@Nick992]

[@denegillespie7756]

[@lvkdzh]

[@MegaLout]

Fantastic

[@johneckhart8198]

Love this stuff look sharp act sharper is my personal favorite

[@primate1234]

Great tune, finest pub rock with punk attitude so I guess that makes it punk anyway.

[@merseybeast76]

No Rods would have meant no Clash Pistols, Lurkers, SLF, and all the great bands that followed

[@grimblegrumble3192]

No SLF for sure ! But Lurkers came more from the Ramones, Clash from Ramones, NY Dolls & Pistols, Pistols from Stooges & early Who. Eddie and the Hot Rods gave Slaughter & the Dogs, Skrewdriver, Undertones, Protex, etc. Damned came from Stooges

[@nainoswad2725]

Should have been a double A.. These, The Pirates and Dr.Feelgood..true punk..Kursaal Klassic.

[@allesvw]

R.i.p 😢

[@marcosdgonzalez5270]

Punk rock

[@jlmuldo]

100 mph music

[@wikidgeeza1]

good times

[@Isabelle_Li]

I did a double take on the thumbnail (group photo at 1:47) because I thought it was the Stiff Little Fingers members! 😂 Henry, Brian, Ali, Jake from left to right. Both bands are great!

[@normandisc7000]

top 77!!!

[@markjohnston1813]

one of the best bands that never was,I just don't think people really realised that,how f..king sad

[@misterjones7929]

Great Punk riffin’ …!

[@PoppyMissy15]

⚡🎸

[@djhagler]

Blazing

[@kykyah]

Graeme Douglas saved The Rods, this is as close to Raw Power as british will ever get, really just the best ( Nicol is great, ah everyone is )

[@RYx222]

The Clash shit all over anything the Stooges have ever done

[@billrrc4750]

Get fucked no way

[@upndowndelinquent7593]

I would suggest that musically the Rods were closer to the MC5 than The Stooges- twin guitars, traditional rock/blues roots. Not that there's anything wrong with that.

[@pit2ryan3]

@@upndowndelinquent7593 - In fact they recorded two songs with Rob Tyner (MC5 singer)...

[@celiamuro9182]

Ayer sonaron de la ostia en Bilbao.

[@rundoetx]

Crank It Up! Damn right.

[@Garitaonandia93]

señor tema

[@kykyah]

How angry can you get ( without being Lemmy )...

[@trevorbarre5616]

And a b-side at that - "I mIght be lying" was the a.

[@kykyah]

Percect TEN, on a par with Raw Power

[@mightyturkeyneck1349]

This is great rock n roll, but the comparisons to Raw Power are u founded-- the Stooges TRANSCENDED rock n roll on their 3rd LP; Raw Power was a Molotov cocktail masquerading as a record album!

[@juliansanchez2805]

Do anybody have this song Lyrycs?

[@gasutrias9961]

😍

[@LarzGustafsson]

Reminds me of a certain Gonads tune..."But she can' t beat the Business..." etc.

[@SofiaBootBoy]

can someone drop full lyrics?

[@Kelly14UK]

Fuckin cool. Check out Fires' Fathers Name Is Dad btw

[@martinblondel1531]

I heard two of the members became undercover police man Some ripping songs I say this because my mate got busted by them at Centerpoint in Tottenham Court Road in 19 83

[@williamgary8035]

Boooooo

[@lostsoulline]

what on earth are you on about? none of them were ever coppers mate

[@dannyfenris7708]

Yes, very likely. I bet they said "We're the Southend plainclothes branch of the Met. You may have seen us on Top of the Pops 5 or 6 years ago. Do Anything You Wanna Do? Not on our manor! You're nicked, sunshine!"

[@darai9635]

[@LarzGustafsson]

@BigEl88 Or maybe "I lost my love to a UK Sub"

[@szchimmeldebaze2505]

çà!? c'est vraîment eux ,çà me fait penser qu'y faut que j'arrête de copier téléphone ,et que ferais mieux de copier eddy & the hot rods Szchimmel (et toc!)

[@jerrymerritt5698]

Is this sort of like Paranoid by Black Sabbath?

[@johnwhit9471]

No

[@JohnWayne-86ed]

Sure sounds a lot like it!

[@krisscanlon4051]

Same rhythm and kinda constructing of the song but different melodies. Few chords and pure speed
