Sex Pistols Make Punk Revival with 2025 North American Tour
Well, well, well, if it isn’t the Sex Pistols strutting back into the limelight after a two-decade absence from North America. As if punk rebellion wasn’t already a thing of the past—oh wait, it’s not! This iconic band is set to ignite stages across the U.S. and Canada in fall 2025, promising a riotous return that fans have been clamoring for since 2003. Don your studded jackets and prepare for the chaos as they gear up to perform their legendary album, “Never Mind The Bollocks, Here’s the Sex Pistols,” in its entirety. Yes, you read that right—every deliciously anarchic note.
Frank Carter, stepping in as the new frontman, confidently asserts that “the world needs this band right now.” And honestly, who could disagree? With original members Steve Jones, Paul Cook, and Glen Matlock in tow, they’re ready to prove that age is merely a number when it comes to punk rock. Their upcoming tour isn’t just a nostalgic trip down memory lane; it’s a declaration that the spirit of punk is very much alive and kicking. While the lineup may have shifted—sorry Johnny Rotten, you’re out—the essence remains unscathed. Carter’s affirmation that they play just as well, if not better, is a bold claim, but one that fans are eager to put to the test.
Before the North American leg kicks off, the band will grace a trio of festivals overseas, rubbing elbows with heavyweights like Sting and Green Day. Can we say “punk rock renaissance”? As for tickets, the anticipation is palpable. Fans can snatch them up starting April 4 through platforms like Vivid Seats, which offer a 100% buyer guarantee—because who wants to get scammed while trying to relive their wild youth?
Let’s not forget the nostalgia trip of releasing three “Live in the U.S.A.” vinyl albums from their explosive 1978 tour. This is a band that truly knows how to cash in on their legacy while still delivering an electrifying experience. So, buckle up, punk enthusiasts; the Sex Pistols are here to shake things up and remind us all why we fell in love with this genre in the first place.
Class dismissed. Don’t forget to rock out responsibly!
