Ramones is the self-titled debut album by the Ramones. It was released on April 23, 1976 by Sire Records.
After Seymour Stein of Sire Records signed the band in the autumn of 1975, the band began to record their debut the following winter. Ramones was recorded quickly and cheaply at Plaza Sound, Radio City Music Hall, New York. The band recorded February 2 – 19, 1976 on a budget of only $6,200. The template of guitar and bass in opposite channels with the drums in the middle was based on early albums by The Beatles and Cream.
Many radio disc jockeys were supposedly put off by the records' supposedly primitive, frantic music and often bizarre themes. The album did not receive heavy airplay, and it only peaked at number #111 on the Billboard's North American Pop Albums chart upon its April 23 release.
