Just listened to for the first time.... wow
>>61757364
Good stuff right mu nig...it ain't overhyped bullshit at all, it's a classic
>>61758063
Why?
>>61758092
Still manages to be punk as fuck and not feel gimmicky with the whole "influences from so many genres of music" thing
the type of album i was done with by the age of 12
>>61758117
This being said, it makes for a shitty punk album actually due to lack of purity by doing the exact shit punk was tryna stay pure of.
>>61758120
lol yeah right kid
>>61758063
>it isn't overhyped bullshit at all
This is literally the definition of overhyped bullshit
>>61758120
This.
>>61758117
London Calling is about as punk as Blink-182
11*
>>61758167
Nah bro, you're literally just shit posting. Some people may over hype it sure but when one half of the album is bona-fide classics the album holds it weight. Do you just have to kill everything you touch?
>>61758167
i like it so you're wrong
>>61758167
Right because blink 182 talks about this many social and political issues. Please just shut up faggot
>>61758228
Nah bro, I'm figuratively just shit posting. What you consider "bona-fide" classics" is the 70s equivalent of pop punk. Go listen to Fall Out Boy if that sound is so "classic" to you.
it's not punk it's new wave
>>61758261
not him but if you think london calling is punk you ought to jump out a fucking window
it's a fucking rock n roll record face it
>>61758167
Nah definitely more punk than Blink. Despite the many non-punk parts the approach to songwriting and lyrics are very much punk. Again, like I said in my second post it makes for a shitty punk album for purity reasons, but it's still a good album.
>>61758320
Wtf? So you're gonna say that the album's not punk because of all the different musical styles but then call it rock n roll? This makes even less sense since punk was in a way a return to rock n roll roots, being basically rock n roll but in the 70s.
>>61758117
>London Calling
>Punk as fuck
There's 0 (zero) punk songs on that album.
>>61758351
literally what the fuck are you talking about
>>61758351
So it's more punk because it doesn't actually have any punk music on it?
>>61758320
I wasn't talking about the clash faggot I was talking about blink...if he thinks they're more punk than the clash he oughta kill himself naw mean chap?
>>61758351
>being basically rock n roll but in the 70s
>I'm not sure what you're trying to imply but it sounds like you're implying there was no other rock n roll in the 70s
>>61758383
Punk is an attitude you fucking autist
>>61758387
they are more punk than the clash, they're also more shit but that's a separate issue.
This thread seems to be filled with literal children who don't understand what punk was.
>>61758438
>This thread seems to be filled with literal children who think that bands like the Clash and the Sex Pistols were punk
Fixed
>>61757364
probably my favourite post punk album ever
>>61758421
You're a literal fucking retard who understands nothing about social or political issues. Sorry bout that
>>61758373
>>61758383
I am not siding or not siding with him. Just saying that his argument stopped making sense after he added the "they are rock n roll" bit which actually fucked his argument up.
>>61758415
Rock n roll was 50s/very early 60s. Punk in style and songwriting was very similar except more rebellious.
>>61758474
thank you for calling it post-punk
that's the closest thing to punk this album remotely qualifies for
>>61758419
London Calling doesn't even have a punk attitude. It's some of the most pussy shit recorded. If you changed the lyrics a bit you could sell it as a kids album.
>>61758496
You're making some increasingly confused statements so I'll try to respond the best way I can. Punk's influences didn't just vanish from the mid-60s to the early-70s. If anything, they took influence from other 70s bands like the Stooges and New York Dolls
>>61758494
ok dad
just because an album addresses social issues doesn't make it punk
an album with a song like rudie can't fail is instantly less punk than even stupid dogfucking 90s punk
>>61758474
>>61758474
>The Clash
>post-punk
Okay maybe I could let that one slide if you were talking about Sandinista but
>London Calling
>post-punk
>>61758527
Okay because statements on politics and social issues aren't the essence of punk. God you're fucking stupid
>>61758494
literally
>>61758548
>london calling
>not post punk
>using a picture of people laughing
please
>>>/leave/ and don't come back
>>61758546
I can't even comprehend your argument to be honest so let's just cut ties alright friend? Way to drag a discussion of a great album into the mud over some stupid petty bullshit
>>61758553
So I guess Green Day is punk then, too? They make statements on politics and social issues, so they must be punk. Same with Kanye West.
>>61758532
I never said they vanished I was only emphasizing Rock n roll's part in shaping punk overall. Even the garage rock stuff that's often called protopunk like Stooges or Monks were shaped by rock n roll.
>>61758574
do you even know what post-punk is? are you trying to tell me that London Calling sounds like bands like Joy Division and Wire?
>>61758553
You're the one grasping at straws, trying to convince everyone that London Calling is a punk album. It's like reading one of those "best 25 punk albums of all time" articles that lists Nevermind and 5 Ramones albums.
>>61758576
>London Calling
>great album
>>61758576
fuck it why not
gotta get some sleep tonight, can't be arguing on /mu/ over stupid shit all night
>>61758592
I'm not sure what this has to do with London Calling and how it isn't a punk album
>>61758606
/thread
>>61758610
great argument dude just leave i'm not even a big fan of the album but you're just a fucking dipshit
>>61758577
Quit playing stupid bro...I was never saying that London Calling was a pure punk album. I think that's obvious. But if you're not a fucking idiot and know where they came from you can see the punk influence in a lot of songs, obviously they branched out into other genres but their ideals remained the same
>>61758655
>Their ideals remained the same
>Band licensed the shit out of London Calling, Rock the Casbah and Should I Stay Or Should I Go to every tv show and commercial under the sun
>>61758643
Nuh-uh, you're a fucking dipshit!
>>61758670
Are either of those songs on this album? Nope. Are we talking about this album? Yep.
>>61758684
lmao
that was kinda funny 2bh
reminded me of elementary school
hahahahahahahaha
(im not actually even being sarcasm that was a good post dude)
>>61758622
Again, going back to my original comment. Sure, call London Calling not punk, but then don't weaken your own argument by calling it rock n roll.
>>61758713
>>61758670
Whoops didn't see you mention london calling...I guess youll call me out on that and "win" or something
>>61758713
>Are either of those songs on this album?
>London Calling
>not on the album London Calling
>>61758748
Yeah see>>61758743
Faggot...howd I know?
>>61758779
Nuh-uh, you're a faggot!
>>61758740
that wasn't his argument that was my argument
this whole thread is a fucking mess and i'm tired
i was listening to it and thought "this doesn't sound like punk this sounds closer to the rolling stones" i was probably listening to jammy jizz at the time
that is why i called it rock n roll
also because its rolling stone top 500-core and only dadrockers take that shit seriously
I D O N O T G I V E A F U C K A B O U T T H I S
ANYMORE
I AM GOING TO SLEEP
fuck u all
>>61758811
damn dude this post is a mess, go to sleep
nothing says "punk" like the harmonica on Train in Vain amirite
>>61758810
Good one

How does this blatant shit even work on somebody? I want to say be more subtle but you're doing just fine working with this guy
>>61758842
Don't you love jammy jizz though, Im the albums side btw that was just too funny not to comment on
>Jammy Jizz
>>61758859
>4chan didn't validate my opinions when I told them my favorite pop rock band is a punk band!
>>61758885
The amount of Sensitive Sandys on /mu/ has increased exponentially over the past year
The Clash has more in common with Michael Bolton than punk
>>61758894
Well you're actually not right, but I won't tell you my favorite punk band cuz you'll just smash em. Go ahead and ask though...I was really into the clash about 10-6 years ago it's just pretty stupid to pretend it's not at least a good album. I guess your music taste is just too cool though
>>61758962
Actually, I won't ask
>please don't tell me
>>61758962
dude grow some balls lol ur sounding like a pussy bitch
>>61759000
That's fine with me, really couldn't care less anon
>>61758553
The Roots are my favorite punk band too.
>>61759000
I'll even let you pound my pussy if you wanna :)
>>61759037

Children like you should just fucking kill yourself in your parents McMansion.
>>61758358
