Green Day’s Billie Joe Armstrong is set to front a new punk rock supergroup to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the Ramones’ first album.
The play-it-fast-and-simple icons are widely considered the world’s first true punk band, with the MC5 and the Stooges laying the groundwork before them. Their 1976 self-titled LP, which included stonewall classics like Blitzkrieg Bop and I Wanna Be Your Boyfriend, kick-started America’s powerful punk scene.
