The
central experience of the Ramones and their music is of being an
outsider, an outcast, a person who’s somehow defective, and the revolt
against shame and self-loathing. The fans, argues Donna Gaines, got it

on the streets, and from themselves. This sense of estrangement and
marginality permeates everything the Ramones still offer us as artists,

saved rock and roll, modeled DIY ethics, and addressed our deepest
collective traumas, from the personal to the historical.
