Love or hate album…a mixture of many elements… unique if you allow your ears and senses such acoustic challenge..

Combat Rock is another example of a band hitting their peak just before they break up. Though perhaps their most commercially successful album (with both intercontinental hit singles 'Should I Stay or Should I Go?' and 'Rock the Casbah'), the uneven sound of this album shows the fractious nature of the band hitting their high. The entire first side is militant, vicious and beautiful, including both the aforementioned singles as well as call-to-arms opener 'Know Your Rights' and the lush Vietnam-ode reggae of 'Straight to Hell,' with the weak link being 'Car Jamming,' which provides a taste of what follows on the flip-side. Side two opens with the reprehensible 'Overpowered by Funk' and lurches on through other ill-advised ventures into territory the band had already explored on their previous, Sandinista (to similarly mixed results).
From here out, The Clash spiraled apart. Between this album, Sandinista and the better-forgotten Cut the Crap, it seems like it was probably for the best they called it quits when they did. -
