OT: Watcha Listenin' To? Part VI

[Rebels57]

I post this on occasion. This is probably the tightest a rock band has ever been.

@Surrounded By Ahos I sense that like me, you would also be pumped up by the verse starting with "from the Hundred Years War...". That verse makes me want to go conquer something and gift it to whoever the current monarch is, like Disraeli casually gifting the Suez Canal.

Maybe I could conquer the Suez Canal.

London Calling is a Top 10 Album ever made for me.

Top 4 song on one of the greatest albums. Definitely the most underrated song on that double album. But I’m always a sucker for the Mick Jones lead songs.

Another that needs more credit:



Imagine being able to write songs like this. I'm pleased with myself if I manage to rhyme "to" and "too."

I picked up this Remastered version from 2013 on vinyl back in February and it's an absolute scorcher on my set-up.

The Clash – London Calling (2013, 180 Gram , Vinyl)

That’s in the top 4! It probably is my favorite. Again, Mick Jones lead! Although, Strummer wrote it. But Jones’ more delicate vocals and pathos just hit different.

Totally the same, though I love them both. The only thing wrong with Mick Jones is that he looks exactly like the Wicked Witch of the West.

Imagine growing up listening to The Clash and then deciding to become Green Day.

Seriously. We live in a society.

I listened to this album last night. This is a weird one for me. It's kind of like Blink-182 (But better); possibly fueled by nostalgia more than merit. But still doing interesting things musically, if not necessarily great things. I remember this being really unique when it came out and maybe I've just gotten used to it over time.

The Clash live on stage were like Bobby Clarke on ice in his prime. I never saw anything better IMO.

Kinda digging these guys lately. They have a familiar but unique sound.

Didn't expect to be listening to some Singaporean indie rock when I woke up this morning, yet here we are.

Can you imagine one day you were the Great and Fantastic Yardbirds then the next week you were Led Zeppelin. Gee what a come down......

Perfection. Anything that sounds like Velocity Girl is top-notch.

Or can you imagine you were with the Yardbirds, then one day Cream, then Blind Faith, and that dreadful Bonnie And Delaney band. Eric Clapton...

 

[Rebels57]

The new CHVCHES song and new Wolf Alice song are both total bangers. Wasn't crazy about either of their last albums, but love these songs. I'll post later.

Unfortunately, Eric Clapton eats balls.

Eric Clapton has been inducted into the rock and roll hall of fame 3 times.

Also, American Idiot is a 10/10 album. Absolute banger from wire to wire. I don't listen to Green Day other than that though, really.
