Commenting, frontman Johnny Rotten said: โ€œMusic can be great, when done by the great. The Sex Pistols are the greatest. Universal now has a trophy room, music is the imitation of nature, the Sex Pistols are nature, so please give generously. Thank you.โ€

Karen Simmonds from the label added: โ€œTo be given the opportunity to re-evaluate the Sex Pistols catalogue is every music loverโ€™s dream. Weโ€™re looking forward to working with the band and celebrating their impact on worldwide culture.โ€
