You Think It Be Like It Is...BUT IT DON'T: The Clash

This section used to be called You Think It's Like This, But Really It's Like This. @mayorbrowntown rejected my idea for a Mirah themed title, so I'm gonna go ahead and give him credit for this one.

If you're reading this, you probably already know the Clash are my favorite band. If you don't know, now you know. Just look at the banner above. I mean, come'on! Who else do you know that has a double LP of London Calling, the sticker still on it that it was for £5? That's what I thought.

While many people may consider themselves Clash fans as well, I've spent waaaaay too much time in the deep cuts to not pass these along. So while 'London Calling' and 'Should I Stay or Should I Go' are all fine and dandy, 'First Night Back in London' is probably my favorite song by them. Not to mention their dub experiments that opened my ears to the genre as a whole. So let's dive into some of it, shall we?
