I'm downloading the mix - I've got some Clash stuff and have tried really hard to make myself get into them, but it's never worked for me. Maybe I just haven't heard the right song yet.

[sullen_hearts]

They're one of my favourite bands ever ever, and they influenced three of my favourite bands so much too (the Libs, the Manics and Rancid). I love them and am very willing to give you a track by track rundown ;)

[dachelle]

I knew they were a big influence on the Libs, and that's why I started listening to them in the first place - I hadn't heard most of the bands that influenced the Libs, the Clash included. I don't hate them or anything, I've just never fallen in love with the music. I'd say London Calling is probably my favorite of the ones I know. I'll keep trying!

[sullen_hearts]

That's fair enough. My favourites, for your reference, are Lost In The Supermarket, Death or Glory, Guns of Brixton, This Is Radio Clash and Police On My Back. Probably.

[dachelle]

I've only heard Guns of Brixton and This is Radio Clash out of those. I'll give the others a shot.

I wasn't born so much as I fell out/nobody seemed to notice me - Lost In The Supermarket

Well I believe in this and it's been tested by research/He who fucks nuns will later join the church - Death or Glory

And Police On My Back was sampled by Lethal Bizzle last year and DREW WAS IN THE VIDEO BEING HOT.

Have you heard Lethal Bizzle doing a rap which heavily samples Police On My Back? Well, it sort of is that song with more rapping over the top. S'very good.

Sorry for just randomly butting in there... *whistles*

[sullen_hearts]

Yesssssssssssss. I loooooove it. You don't have it, do you? I lost it when my e drive died in October.

You're always welcome to butt in ;)

[madam_ray]

its very joyous. I actually d/led because of someone recommending it in the Metro of all places. But very glad I did.

I have that song! It's the "video where Drew was beaten up and it was disturbingly hot" song. I like that one! I didn't know it was a Clash song originally.

[sullen_hearts]

Yesssss that's the one! It was just sampled and it's OMG SO COOL. Himself objected a LOT! I don't care.
