I expected a lot of these songs to sound familiar, since The Clash is such a well known band. However, I only recognized "White Riot". It was an exciting moment, since for the first time I could actually understand what they said: white riot! I wanna riot. White riot! Something...something...you get the point.
I have really been enjoying our punk kick lately. It is always fun to have punk music blaring while you do manual labor (which for me means taking out the trash). Still, this album was a bit more special to me than the usual punk music. Maybe it is because this album actually thoughtful content and was more than just catchy screaming. I would recommend listening to "Police and Thieves" if you want to listen to a song with meaning. Definitely worth its place on The List.
RATING: 4/5
