| The Clash Hey guys! I'm a huge Clash fan and thought that they deserved their own thread because they're just THAT GOOD! I've loved the Clash since I was just a little kid and I think that they're one of the best bands ever. __________________ "Do you have the time to listen to me whine? Good.

| Best Punk Band Ever! "Train in Vain" is one the best pop, (punk), songs of it's time. I also loved their intergration of key musical sounds that rarely penetrated the mainstream at the time. __________________ Let Grace and Love Abide in You | {Great things did grow in Brooklyn.} {"... the future is beauty and sorrow."} Community ∫ 2 Broke Girls ∫ Dan&Blair ∫ Jeff&Annie ∫ Barney&Robin ∫ Ted&Victoria ∫ Nick&Jess ∫ Seth&Marissa ∫ Matt&Elizabeth ∫ George&Zoe | Tumblr | *icon by pamplemoos | |||

| Wa-hey, there's a thread for The Clash now I basically grew up listening to The Clash, because my dad was a huuuuge fan, and so he always played all those bands like The Clash, The Ramones, The Sex Pistols... and i've always loved their music. Thanks for starting a thread ![]() | |||

| Cha, yes. I love the Clash!! Though, I only have a couple of albums. They definitely are my favourite band to come out of the punk era. ![]() __________________ | |||

| Yeah, I have Lodon Calling, and Combat Rock, as well as a three disk box set. Their early stuff was always underated, (I'm taking really early). It's a more of a striped down, raw sound. Their cover of "Pressure Drop" has always been a favorite of mine. btw, London Calling made RS 500 most essential albums of all time. It came in top 10! That really is telling. But I always knew the influence they had. I hear it in so many bands of this generation. __________________ Let Grace and Love Abide in You | {Great things did grow in Brooklyn.} {"... the future is beauty and sorrow."} Community ∫ 2 Broke Girls ∫ Dan&Blair ∫ Jeff&Annie ∫ Barney&Robin ∫ Ted&Victoria ∫ Nick&Jess ∫ Seth&Marissa ∫ Matt&Elizabeth ∫ George&Zoe | Tumblr | *icon by pamplemoos | |||

| London Calling was also RS top album of the 80's though it came out in 79! ![]() yeah, the Clash are an inspiration to so many of today's artists. From U2 to the F-Ups to so many others, the Clash will always live on in other bands. __________________ "Do you have the time to listen to me whine? Good.

| Man, The Clash are such a great band. London Calling is perhaps one of the best songs ever made. It was such a shame when Joe Strummer died right before there was talk of them reuniting. __________________ ...you gotta cry without weeping...talk without speaking...scream without raising your voice... | |||

| The death of Joe... *tear* I did a project on the Clash in my English class and I had to give a speech about them. When I was talking about Joe's death, not only did I start crying, but my teacher and one of my best friends were crying as well. __________________ "Do you have the time to listen to me whine? Good.
