A Parody of the cover of the Grunge Band Nirvana's Second Album Nevermind Originally Released in 1991. This picture shows Bart Simpson probably as a young kid underwater and swimming towards a one dollar Krusty dollar. The Picture again shows good attention to detail.  If Nevermind's sound is familiar now, it's only because thousands of rock records that followed it were trying very hard to cop its style. It tears out of the speakers like a cannonball, from the punk-turbo-charged riff of "Smells Like Teen Spirit" onward, magnifying and distilling the wounded rage of 15 years of the rock underground into a single impassioned roar. Nevermind is definitely one of the best Albums of All-time.

The Ramones appered in one Simpson episode. In the ramones have a cameo appearance at Mr Burns birthday party. There script is as follows Ramone 1: I'd just like to say this gig sucks!
Ramone 2: Hey, up yours, Springfield.
Ramone 1: One, two, three, four! [Abrasive guitar music begins]Happy Birthday to you!  (Happy Birthday!) Happy Birthday to you! (Happy Birthday!) Happy Birthday, Burnsey, Happy Birthday to you! Ramone 3: Go to hell, you old bastard[The curtain falls] Ramone 4: Hey, I think they liked us! The ramones were Joey Ramone (Lead Singer), Johnny Ramone (Lead Guitar), CJ Ramone (Bassist) and Marky Ramone (Drummer)
 
Like most true originals, the Ramones embodied a dizzying array of contradictions. As punk godfathers, they became the archetype for a rebellious musical ethos that could often confuse the baby for the bath water, yet at heart they were 1960s pop- and bubblegum-worshipping reactionaries. The seeming unity symbolized by their street-hood uniform (ripped jeans, deck shoes, and black leather jackets) and name (nicked from an early nom de plume of Beatle Paul) belied turmoil both personal and personnel. And the dumber-than-dumb stance of the likes of "Now I Wanna Sniff Some Glue," "Cretin Hop," and "Teenage Lobotomy" actually masked some of the shrewdest rock ever recorded.
