Re: 'All The Peacemakers' book

Talking with my wife about getting me Tim's latest book for Christmas. Placed the order 10mins ago and came on here to see what others were saying about it. Then doscovered that Tim has passed. Utterly heartbroken for his wife, friends and family. His love for The Clash and knowledge he shared clear...

Re: 1980 Sandinista! and all that jazz.

This is so fecking good. Just looking at the 7" tracklist. Imagine the label were on board and this was the result, incredible.

Good work MD.

Re: Hey, remember Rancid?

Scroll up. Without The Clash Rancid ain't shit. That's harsh and totally selling Rancid short. The next part was paraphrased, granted, but saying The Clash weren't afraid to lose an audience while Rancid played it safe on their way to being millionaires is also harsh. Rancid changed it up. To say ot...

Re: Hey, remember Rancid?

If the issue was the lack of originality then fair enough but the post was they were ska/punk and no variation or change which is imply not true as I've shown. Saying a band ain't worth shit, too rich to take chances (they weren't loaded at the time) etc to now comparing them to BAD, Latino etc is s...

Re: Hey, remember Rancid?

Pretty interesting to notice how rancid are scrutinized/criticized in quite the same way the Clash/Joe have been: filler, millionaire, xerox Clash etc, completely setting aside (if not canceling) 1) the sheer integrity of Tim & co. (instead of a comfort ska/pop punk autopilot, they issued now an ha...

Re: Hey, remember Rancid?

Appreciating this is a Clash board, and you'll expect me to cheer the home team, Rancid did genuinely sound like the Clash, a band of 20 years previously, whereas the Clash didn't sound like Tommy Steele or Joe Brown. I agree with you there. I'll take Clash over Rancid but for someone to say Rancid...

Re: Hey, remember Rancid?

You missed the point. My analysis shows Rancid changed up their sound massively. You said they were afraid to do so.

Re: Hey, remember Rancid?

Ah it's all light hearted fun but it is a bizarre comparison. Going from this: "The Clash unlike Rancid were not afraid of change and tried their hand at loads of different styles." Which is entreily untrue to this: "Rancid 6-10 are stuck in a rut churning out the same stuff" Sounds like a moving o...
