Of course The Ramones' second album, Leave Home, is simply more of the same - 14 songs, including one oldie (""California Sun""), delivered at breakneck speed and concluding in under a half-hour. The Ramones have gotten slightly poppier, occasionally delivering songs like ""I Remember You"" that are cloaked neither in irony nor seedy rock & roll chic. Still, the biggest impressions are made by the cuts that strongly recall the debut, whether it's the ersatz Beach Boys of ""Sheena Is a Punk Rocker,"" the sing along of ""Pinhead,"" or the warped anthems ""Gimme Gimme Shock Treatment"" and ""Commando.""
