All the songs sound the same
The clash is lame
Who listens to this and considers it music?
I love a good 70s rock vibe but AGAIN nothing really stood out to me. A lot of the songs sounded the same and I did not save any to Spotify. I honestly would have thought this was just one long 39 minute song. It reminds me of the songs on the ps2 Tony Hawk game, so if that was the vibe they were going for - nailed it. HOLDUP I actually dig the song Police and Thieves, finally it had a different sound than the rest but why is it 6 minutes long bruh wrap it upppp.
Just another 34 minute jam session with them changing their chant every 1-2 minutes. Only bright part was Police and Thieves. Overall repetitive and boring. I’m trying to keep an open mind since punk isn’t really my jam to begin with, but this album offers nothing exciting or new? Every song was the same. At least it was better than Joy Division.
3/10
Don’t seem to enjoy punk much. I love the beliefs and politics, but not the sound.
I really wanted to like this, but only made it to 2 songs...
If you're going to try and make a commentary, at least put it to better music.
The Clash is terrible.
⭐️/5. Derek Shepard’s first red flag was his favorite band being the Clash. Only song I remotely liked was Police & Thieves, and it’s a cover! Near unlistenable.
Don't like the clash
It's punk and sounds the same as all punk, terrible.
23 maj Då är vi igång, ser inte ljust ut för detta album Det här är nåt pappa hade lyssnat på känner jag återigen Får lite ont i öronen Hate & War är lite svängig Okej albumet är över återigen kan inte säga att jag är ett fan Betyg: 2/10 Favorit: Hate & War
This was ok, very of its time. Feels foundational to UK rock/punk. I liked Thieves and Cops
Aikamoista tuubaa, en halua kuulla tätä uudelleen, kiitos.
Not for me
Not for me
Ugh. No thanks.
Not for me. Most of the tunes sound vaguely the same, and don't express unique identity. Except the reggae tune which I was really into anyway. 1 star.
It’s not London Calling.
Annunciation would be lost on them. I get they're doing their own thing and trying to be revolutionary, but each song sounds the same, and the lyrics are all muddled.
The Ass
Did not dig. No cool melodies or noises.
yup sounds like british punk alright
Punk Rock. The Clash. No.
Not for me. 1
Ah. Now I understand where my bad impression of the Clash came from. This is the distillation of everything I don’t like about this kind of punk music - it’s repetitive and boring, whiny and short-sighted. Grow up. 2/10
Maybe not my type of music... I was bored while listening to it... I only liked 3 songs...
1/5
Not for me at all.
Truly, I was ready for this to be an amazing piece of work, which launched a whole genre. It fell far short of that. Maybe my expectations were just too high, but I really didn't like it.
DNF
not my type
Nicht meine Richtung
Didn’t get it then, don’t get it now. Amateur singing, amateur musicianship…. Okay whatever…
Ghastly.
As expected, I didn't like it.
Trashiger Punk Rock.
bleh
Could it be... Punk? Yes it is. I don't like it. 2/10
好
Yuck, just noise!
ekki fyrir mig ...
I don't think I'll ever like the Clash. Every song from them that I listen to just meshes together. I'm sure London Calling is on this list, and maybe that will end up speaking to me more, but as we are I've yet to find a Clash song I want to return to.
This album nothing for me. Favourite track: Career Opportunities.
Geschrei
Not for me
Nichts für mich ...
I expected this to be good. It is not.
Not a fan. Attended a Who concert in 1982. The Clash was the opening act. Fans were not pleased and flipped them off most of the show.
100% nope
loud un-violent tho is white riot sarcastic or not? idk what it's about awesome guitars overall pretty good turns out white riot isn't racist so i'm good
Ermm yawp it sure is rock
This album definitely clashed with my music taste. Sounds like a bad garage band this is on par with some of the rap albums .25/5
As iconic as this band is and how it influenced so many other bands I enjoy, I didn't really enjoy any of these songs, 1*.
i don’t want to get around this. not an album for someone with a sore head. The mix is interesting though - very wide with the placement of instruments. And panning between vocals. Maybe a bit too much, i’d be interested to listen to it on speakers rather than headphones. Too much hi freq
Just couldn’t stand it. Maybe this means I’ an old man. But found this album super annoying.
Noisy shite rock
Punk
Tone deaf singing. Instrumentals sound like they were written for children’s music. Amateur song writing
IT WAS SOO BAD I DONT WANT TO LISTEN TO WHITE GUYS WHINING ANYMORE
Genuinely struggled to listen to this. Just not my cup of tea.
Dont care for punk.
Genres: Punk rock Formed: London, England in 1976 Run time: 14 songs, 35 min, 20 sec I’m not in the slightest bit impressed with this album. Joe Strummer whinging about work, the country etc. Given his education in a boarding school, perhaps if he’d applied himself a little more he could have found himself in a position to change things instead of moaning about it. Track 4, “White Riot” was OK, everything else was uninspiring. The least played tracks have over 2M plays and three tracks have around 20M plays each. I can only assume it’s the “Emperor's New Clothes” syndrome: because someone said it’s amazing, everyone says it’s amazing. It isn’t! They went on to write some really great songs (“Should I Stay or Should I Go”, “London Calling”, Rock the Casbah”, etc.) but not on this album. No, I won't be listening again. My Rating: *
Boring. Made it through 3 songs before I couldn't take it anymore
I found it to be mostly annoying, chanty, mumble classic rock.
Never liked The Clash!
not my favorite, couldn’t get through it
No………just no
Utter garbage, disliked it immensely.
put me in an instant bad mood
Не мое
Not my bag
Non mi piacciono particolarmente i Clash di questo periodo puramente punk. Inoltre, la produzione di quest'album forse è la peggiore che ho sentito fin'ora, anche rispetto a quella degli altri gruppi punk di quegli anni. I Clash saranno sicuramente più interessanti negli anni a venire.
Yea, sry that's a 1 from me
I listened to about the first minute of each of the first three songs and then a few seconds of the fourth before deciding that nope, I don't have to do this to myself. It's just some more stupid old punk rock and I hate it just as much as all of the other punk so far, if not more so. Actually more so. It seems to be a particularly punkish punk album. Bleh.
Typical crap created by a typical crap band
Not good.
The youtube full album skipped Police and Thieves. I was thinking this had a weak ending, but when you skip the best track on the 2nd side, that'll do that. Still, the back side isn't as strong as the front.
Ist OK
Pretty alright. Had honestly never heard of Janis Joplin before. Dunno if I'd listen again, but I didn't dislike it.
I know it's a classic and part of music history, but the sound is a bit too atonal (vocals) for me. Appreciate it for inspiring a new generation though!
