Combat Rock
The final album by the Clash's original Strummer / Jones incarnation originally released in 1982.
Artist: The Clash
Genre: 70s & 80s
Label: Sony
Release date:
It includes two massive hits: Should I Stay or Should I Go? has the biggest, stupidest, most perfect riff this side of Louie Louie, and Rock the Casbah pulls the band's politics, fine-honed sarcasm, and saw-toothed guitar sound into the service of a dance-floor beat. Strummers lyrics have also deepened on this record - Allen Ginsberg turns up on Ghetto Defendant and its clear on some of the other tracks (Car Jamming, Straight To Hell) that he was an influence on Strummers songwriting.
About the artist

Billed as "The Only Band That Matters", they used elements of reggae, dub, funk, ska, and rockabilly, and they contributed to the post-punk and new wave movements that followed punk.
