It’s hard to imagine any version of the Sex Pistols existing without John Lydon, better known as Johnny Rotten, the sneering and malevolent figure who fronted the band during their brief existence and who came back for the Pistols’ various reunions over the years. The late Sid Vicious was arguably just as important to the Pistols’ iconography, but he wasn’t the band’s original bassist, didn’t play on any of their records, and wasn’t actually particularly good at his instrument. When the Sex Pistols first reunited in the late ’90s, original member Glen Matlock could easily slide into his position. But what will a Sex Pistols reunion look like without Johnny Rotten? We’re about to find out.
