I'm gonna go with London Calling, Hateful, Rudie Can't Fail, Lost in the Supermarket, Clampdown, Death or Glory and Train in Vain.

I'm surprised no one has mentioned Clampdown, the lyrics are brilliant and Mick Jones' bridge is sublime.

I voted the title track, Guns of Brixton and Lost in the Supermarket. My favourite punk album by a mile, even though there are a lot of different styles in the album.

i just chose Guns of Brixton for the bassline alone

the rest are all on even par, except for Koka Kola, which I've always disliked
