London calling

"Vurdering: A" - "The Clash were no longer the vanguard they had been before. They seem to admit as much on "Death or Glory", a kind of reminder of the inevitability of selling out, which contains a memorable, if rather crass, aphorism to this effect ("He who fucks nuns will later join the church"). But they had succeeded in making something that was interesting on its own terms, not simply as part of a movement: an album that showcased the range of their taste, one that no one else could have made, and that for these reasons deserves its place on best-of-the-decade lists more than their earlier work. Every cheap hood strikes a bargain with the world, but this one's better than most".
