Yeah man all East Bay Ray did was power chords.

PS, you're speaking as if technical talent is the be-all, end-all of a band. Well these bands had PASSION, which more than compensates in my opinion.

Hes a prog-fan, if it doesn't have at least *insert amount of chords and notes here* its talentless garbage.

true, but can u picture this genre with another style of guitar playing. the only reason you can say that the clash were better musicians is because they actually were, but they also were't straight punk either. they also branched into reggae, which requires a totally different style of playing. honestly, though they lacked much musical ability, their style is what made the genre what it was. it's not always about flashyness or overall skill, just parts that are appropriate for the song. MUSICAL CHEMISTRY.

even though its not very good and repeated themes get dull.

the dead kennedys are the greatest punk band ever. every record is solid and original.

Mikey stfu.

I'd say something more meaningful as an insult but you're a prog fan. It doesn't get much worse.
