ReviewsRanked #77 in Rolling Stone's "500 Greatest Albums Of All Time" - "...Youthful ambition bursts through the Clash's debut, a machine-gun blast of songs about unemployment, race, and the Clash themselves...", Indispensable-"...Unsurpassed for Its Concentrated Anger and Rebel Bravado...", Ranked #2 in Mojo's "Top 50 Punk Albums" - "...The ultimate punk protest album....Searingly evocative of dreary late '70s Britain, but still timelessly inspiring...", Ranked #3 in NME's list of The Greatest Albums Of The '70s - "...The speed-freaked brain of punk set to the tinniest, most frantic guitars ever trapped on vinyl.
