I usually dislike comparison threads, but I think this might be a pretty good one, so with that said:

The Clash were far more versatile, but I think I actually prefer The Ramones. No Clash song does as much for me as I Wanna Be Sedated. I just find The Ramones to be more enjoyable and The Clash sounds more labored in comparison.

Based on the handful of songs I know by both, probably The Ramones.

I love Blitzkrieg Bop, but The Clash just does more for me, especially when you go deeper into their songs. London Calling has to be one of my all-time favorites.

Some good songs by them. I don't listen to them that much though.

I was never really a fan of the Ramones. I do enjoy The Clash however.

The Clash. I have a hard time making it through an entire Ramones album because each song follows the same formula.

These are my two favorite bands ever. As much as I love the versatility of The Clash, I just love the no-frills approach of the Ramones. And Joey Ramone's voice is just...unbeatable. 1-2-3-4!

The Clash without a doubt. The punk band I like best. I Wanna Be Sedated is a great song....but it's the only Ramones song I like. Whereas I like quite a bit of music from The Clash. I think I even prefer The Sex Pistols over the Ramones.
