Two decades after the Sex Pistols and the Ramones shocked the music work with their turbo-charged punk rock, Blanks 77, have shown that the musical genre is not solely an artifact from the past. With the screaming vocals of Mike Blank and the barbed-wire sounds of Renee Wasted's electric guitar soaring over the slamming rhythms of bassist Timm "T. J." Blank and drummer Chad 10 Seconds, the Quincy, Massachusetts-based band create a supersonic, anything goes, punk-inspired, sound of their own. According to "The CMJ-NMR Review", Blanks 77 "specialize in the pure punk style of '77 but with no socio-political agenda". Blanks 77 was conceived by vocalist Mike Blank and drummer Chad 10 Seconds during jam sessions at Quincy rock club, The Pipeline.

Chelsea Girls Lyrics

Blanks 77

Chelsea girls have short hair
oxblood docs and jeans of blue
watch out boys, she's after you
with a Fred Perry shirt and
a green flight jacket
that funny girl, she's causin' a racket
listening to blitz and the four skins
vespa scooters not safety pins
always with a drink in hand
or else she pogos with the band

[Chorus:]
Chelsea girls are everywhere
chelsea girls say Oi! Oi!
chelsea girls like skinhead boys
She's not a hippie spreadin' peace and love
don't give a fuck about the heaven above
she's just a skin shoutin' Oi! Oi!
can't even play makin' lots of noise
listening to blitz and the four skins
vespa scooters not safety pins
always with a drink in hand
or else she pogos with the band.

[Chorus]
