Haha didn't mean to sound like a prick.

Yes, you're right; The Clash had a definite influence on the SLF. But I've never noticed an overwhelming Op Ivy influence in Green Day, but that's an interesting idea. I'm gonna break out the old Green Day albums and listen to 'em with that in mind.

Since we're talking about the Clash, I am always interested to hear what fans thought of the Pogues.

What do you guys consider your favorite clash song? Mine is stay free. Such an addictive song.

Seltzer 07-09-2010 11:22 AM

Mine is probably the one following that, Cheapskates. What a fantastic song!

Straight To Hell, but I can not say enough good things about this:

Such an underrated song and probably my second favorite.

My favorite song would have to be White Riot! Even being an old song it still gets me thinking.

But also I have to say I love Train in Vain. I can never get enough of that song.

London Calling for me, next to no filler on there.

London Calling is obviously their best album but their debut is better as a work of true punk.

On the topic of Op Ivy and Green Day... here, have a cover of Knowledge.



Blech.

Anyways, I'm going to agree with pretty much everyone and say that London Calling is my favorite... even though it's become a huge musical sacred cow. S/T and Combat Rock go next.

Can we lock this thread and make "Best Clash album other than London Calling?"
