The Heartbreakers, also known as Johnny Thunders and the Heartbreakers to distinguish them from Tom Petty’s band, were an American punk rock band, formed in New York City in May, 1975. The band spearheaded the first wave of punk rock.

“Chinese Rocks” or “Chinese Rock” is a song written in 1975 by New York punk rock musician Dee Dee Ramone with contributions from Richard Hell. Inspired by Lou Reed’s “Heroin”, the song openly details the day-to-day struggles of a heroin addict, and is based on Dee Dee’s real-life experiences.
