Sandinista. Best for me.

I love Combat Rock for songs such as "Should I Stay or Should I Go" and "Rock the Casbah"... But as for their best album in it's entirety, I'd say either the debut or London Calling. I think I would even go with the debut.

London Calling isn't a punk album yet its by the best punk band. There has the be every genre of music explored on that album; soul, rockabilly, ska..... A classic!

Yup, that's all the genres alright.

I've only listened to the US version of The Clash, London Calling and Sandinista extensively enough to rate them, and they're all pretty great. I'd say London Calling is probably the one I'd give the edge to.

London Calling is brilliant but I'm going with the debut album. I just love the original raw punk sound.

The debut has a raw punk energy which hooks me to it every time I listen to it. I voted The Clash, but I admit that London Calling is their most complete and influential album.
