To be fair, the cover of the single actually does say “Sex Pistols”, the former Sex Pistols producer was sued successfully for being misleading. I was successfully mislead. There’s your weird music lore for the day.



It was a con alright, and you fell for The Great Swindle .. :)

TBH I wasn't sure if you were aware and were knowingly going with the I can't believe it's not butter of UK punk.

The oddest thing about your comment, though, was the armed guards and school shootings references following a UK band callout - The Dunblane massacre aside (which was an adult shooter back in 1996) neither feature much in UK or Commonwealth schools, for the most part they're US phenomena, if not in uniqueness then certainly in ubiquitousness and frequency.
