The indispensable consumers' guide to the music of The Clash. An album by album, track by track, examination of every song released by The Clash, from their first single, White Riot to their album Co

London Calling, el disco que le dio nueva vida al rock, nació como el producto de una conjunción milagrosa: la necesidad de The Clash por ampliar al máximo el zoom de su panorámica, una reveladora gira americana, los increibles metodos motivadores de Guy Stevens y la sensacion de ruptura con el pasado que se respiraba en el 79. Fuera de las aguas del post-punk y la new wave, Strummer, Jones, Simonon y Headon desafiaron todas las corrientes imperantes de su epoca, engullendolas con hambre pantagruelica, mediante esta obra arraigada tanto las raices del pasado como al choque continuo entre culturas lejanas. De New Orleans al corazon de Kingston, London Calling es el lenguaje universal del rock, precisamente, por no olvidar ninguno de los nuevos idiomas que, como el reggae o el dub, habian sufrido fascinantes transfiguraciones tras el impacto bestial del punk.London Calling no es solo un disco, sino un documento que tras casi cuatro decadas sigue sonando tan vital, rupturista y transcendente como el primer dia. Por eso y por la cantidad de matices y conexiones que se pueden seguir extrayendo de su ADN, Marcos Gendre nos lleva de viaje hasta las mismas entrañas de cada una de sus canciones, mediante The Clash: la unica banda que importa, un libro revelador para los fans del grupo y basico para el que aun no se haya querido sumergir entre las aguas revitalizantes de esta obra capital, por siempre, inspiradora.

Los Clash fueron un grupo insólito, una perfecta anomalía que pronto trascendería su militancia en el punk más atroz, en compañía de bandas como los Sex Pistols, a fin de ir incorporando, sin renunciar a su combativo ideario ni a sus principios esteticos, otras tradiciones musicales a su paleta sonora. Pioneros, pues, del efervescente punk rock que haria las delicias de las hordas de encrestados imberbes que abominaban del jipismo burguesito, los mods, los teddy boys y la edulcorada grandilocuencia del rock progresivono sin antes abjurar del folk electrizado y bien atemperado que gastaban la acomodada clase media y la aristocracia mas cool, los Clash sacudieron los cimientos de la aun omnipotente industria discografica con sus incendiarios conciertos y sus lucidas composiciones. La brillante singularidad de su estilo y la pasion de su compromiso politico lograron, ademas, plasmar el espiritu de una epoca y los convirtieron en un autentico fenomeno mundial cuyo legado sigue influyendo en los mejores musicos emergentes y despertando el entusiasmo, cuando no la veneracion, de nuevas audiencias. No deja de ser significativo que su documental autobiografico Westway to the World obtuviera un premio Grammy o que la revista Rolling Stone escogiese London Calling como uno de los mejores albumes jamas grabados.Exhumar...
