also fire mage i'm not insulted so much as i am AMUSED because no one with any taste would ever say the clash wasn't that great and you are sort of acting like you've figured it all out and all of us just haven't gotten it yet, and the fact that you are INTO DAVE GROHL just makes it funnier. you're like those guys on youtube who say SHUT UP EVERYONE IVE LISTENED TO JOY DIVISION AND THEY SUCK this fob cover is way better
i didn't think you were genuinely insulted or whatever buuutt
i mean, from what i've seen i haven't experienced A LOT of the clash but some of their stuff is just idk. maybe it's just the fact that that is a live version but it's just too much mumble/slur.
the only the clash songs i've heard and liked a lot are "should i stay or should i go" (well-known and kind of generic but whatever), "complete control" and "i fought the law", unless i'm forgetting any more. point me to some really good clash songs then????
oh and i've never listened to joy division so idk how they are. also you keep bringing up fall out boy keep them out of this topic thanks!

p.s. compare "stacked actors", "hey, johnny park!", "monkey wrench", "everlong", and the first half of the album "echoes, silence, patience & grace" by foo fighters.
i mean i don't think anyone's actually going to go compare all that stuff because i said so but those aren't all GENERIC SAME THING FORGETTABLE so idk????
also i like all the bands chef posted and they're pretty different! (i agree about bush though)
