hey, its all subjective. they had their roots in punk i agree. i just think by the end they had broken their boundries and couldn't be defined in one genre. the clashes message was one of political and social idealism. most other punk bands were nihilistic.

I didn't even know sheep ate bananas.

I always loved that cover, and am sincerely moved by the selfless sacrifive the Precision Bass made so people all over the world like myself could love that cover. In other news, I got Sandinista! last friday, and it rocks!
