The Clash

The Clash was one of the first punk bands to become famous in England. Punk is a very angry type of Rock and Roll, it was born in England because young people had no jobs and no money and nobody listened to them, so.......they made LOTS OF NOISE!!

The Clash was one of the most popular punk bands in England and The USA because a lot of young people understood why they were angry and loud. This band is a very important part of the British culture and here are some songs;
