Sex Pistols

In July 1977, when the Sex Pistols performed live in Trondheim, they were right in the thick of their explosive rise in punk rock history. This was just shortly after the release of their iconic album *Never Mind the Bollocks, Here’s the Sex Pistols,* which came out in October 1977. The film captures the band at a time when they were both celebrated and vilified—their raw energy and defiance resonated with youth disillusionment everywhere. The recording showcases both their audacious spirit and the rawness of their sound, which was a breath of fresh air amidst the polished productions dominating mainstream music. Also, it’s quite interesting to note that this performance reflected their penchant for chaos both on and off stage, as they were known for their unpredictable antics. This live recording is a testament to their electrifying presence during a transformative period in music.
