Sex Pistols, a legendary English punk rock band of the 70s.
The band was formed in the year 1975 and they're a main icon responsible to for the initiating movement of punk rock in UK which inspired many punk rock and alternative rock acts. The band members are Johnny Rotten, Steve Jones, Paul Cook and Glen Matlock (bassist after Sid) and Sid Vicious. Though Sid Vicious passed on in the year 1979 because of drug overdose. Although Sid's death was a tragic incident, Johnny Rotten [vocals] continued the legacy of The Sex Pistols until this day.

Whiskey in the Jar

Its an Irish traditional song though many popular artists remade it. The Dubliners performed it internationally as a signature song and they are the first band to make that song a wide exposure. This traditional song however has been recorded in 3 albums in the 1960's. So, what is this song about??? Well, this song is about a man who is betrayed by a woman or lover. Although many artists had remade this song and gave it their own tune. But, the only two versions which inspired me to write this is from Thin Lizzy and Metallica. It's an awesome song. You guys should listen to it sometime.
Have a nice day
