The Ramones | Subterranean Jungle [1983]
The Ramones are one of the greatest bands ever. We love their raw, melodic rock 'n roll style. We adore the graceful singing of Joey, the aggressive guitar playing of Johnny, the awesome beats of Marky, and the irreverence of Dee Dee. Why mainstream success continued to elude them their entire carreer we'll never understand. They are irresistible and perfect. This album, although flawed, has all of the magic of the Ramones.

Subterranean Jungle is the seventh studio album by the American punk rock band the Ramones, released by Sire Records on February 23, 1983. Overall, the album featured a return to a somewhat more hard punk rock style compared to the band's previous two albums End of the Century in 1980, and Pleasant Dreams in 1981, which were the most pop-focused of the band's career. This direction was encouraged by guitarist Johnny Ramone. The recording sessions saw disputes between band members, mainly due to struggles with alcohol addiction by Joey Ramone and Marky Ramone, and the drug addiction of Dee Dee Ramone.
The album begins with two cover songs, and features a third on side two. The band's signature punk rock is supplemented by touches of hard rock, and psychedelic rock. The album was deemed by critics to be a return to the band's roots, and received mostly positive reviews. Subterranean Jungle peaked at number 83 on the US Billboard 200, but failed to chart internationally. The singles released from the album did not chart. This is the last album by the band to feature Marky Ramone on drums until the 1989 album Brain Drain. It is the first album by the band to feature vocals from Dee Dee Ramone, who sings lead on "Time Bomb", as well as the bridge of "Outsider".
