Super Black Market Clash is a great album for rounding up their b-sides and dub songs.

 

[Lili Marlene]

oh fucking hell don't put 1-2- crush on you in this thread!

aaghghghgh

I'm on Shneaky's side now

 

[Janer]

But when played with the other B sides it has it's place.

 

[Janer]

Sandinista is also very under rated, sure there is dross on it but there are some total gems.

Love this song, I only really got into it when the credits at the end of the film this song was used, it fitted late 70s Britain so well.

 

[RoMaaan]

I'll never listen to Moutpiece in the same way again.

Love this song, I only really got into it when the credits at the end of the film this song was used, it fitted late 70s Britain so well.

One of my all time favourite songs.

 

[Janer]

Did you watch Rude Boy Moose? If so Rudie can't Fail fitted in so well in the end credits.

Also if you liked this song I will hazard a guess that you love this one off London Calling too.

Haven't seen Rude Boy. I really like all of London Calling as I do the first too albums. All the same I'd till agree that they're overrated.

 

[Lili Marlene]

I'd maybe opine that they're more overpraised than overrated

 

[Janer]

when a bands 1st album influences so much in life be it politics (anti nazi league)/ music/ clothing you don't need more then 1 album, sex pistols are another case of this.
and if you like 3 out of 5 albums, 4 proper albums then they can't be that over rated.
What form do you think they are over rated, because some mainstream critics liked them or theyir albums are in some of the greatest albums list of all time? don't forget they also conquered America which most bands fail, again Pistols didn't either, while The Clash wouldnt like to admit it, they had a lot in common with the Pistols.

 

[GARYXKNIFEDX]

They only conquered america because they turned to shit,had they kept releasing records of the quality of the first,america wouldn't have cared. (yes this means I think London Calling is a terrible record)



Bizarrely,my copy of the first record is an american pressing. It has different songs to the uk one I believe.

 

[Space]

Was gonna say they conquered America as a fairly mainstream American sounding rock band.

I think they're overrated as the godfathers of punk, their politics aren't even close to being as radical as the likes of Neil Young (who I prefer as a writer, musician and political commentator).

As for fashion I really wish people didn't paint stupid polictial slogans on their clothes.

 

[Janer]

Neil Young?

ByeBye.

 

[Janer]

Death To The Ramones would be an interesting thread.

 

[Space]

What's wrong with Neil Young not streotypically bullshit punk enough for ya?

I think we can all agree that the Ramones are amazing and never overrated.

Death To The Pixies is great compilation album while we're on the subject of Death to the.....

 

[Tony Ramone]

Death To The Ramones would be an interesting thread.

what did i ever do to you?

 

[GARYXKNIFEDX]

Neil young >>The Clash

Ramones first four are amazing,and in context,not overrated. I find the Pixies very dull and overrated.

 

[Janer]

Hippy dinosaur who never stands up . and don't be cussing.
Many forms of Punk so stereotypically Punk fails, but yes I like fast music most of the times.

I never said I didn't like the Ramones, I am a Ramones fan, I was curious how a thread would go based on the context of this thread.

and shame on you Gary.

Where is Stanto to sort all this out? The Clash have some deadly songs, what's the problem? Give em enough Rope is a deadly album, the first album's great, London Calling's a great song, Guns of Brixton.... It IS really annoying that the same old bands get wheeled out as the greatest punk bands ever in Magazines and Documentaries, it's the same with art and everything probably.
