Title: The greatest UK punk album, ever.
Review: So, maybe their first album fits more into what is commonly known as "punk," but I think this album is much more important. On this album, the Clash was able to bring the rage and anger of the punk scene far beyong the barrage of noise & three fast chords that characterised the scene.The music here is hard to define. The band took all of their influences and put it into one distinct sound. It isn't so much rock, punk, blues, dub or rockabilly, but a mixture of it all.And even if you already own the old CD copy of London Calling, you simply MUST get this new remastered cd. The sound quality is much better, as the bass & drums have been moved up in the mix, making it feel more punchy like the original vinyl. The insert is really cool, but I wish they had made it a bit bigger, so you could actually see the pictures.
