ALONG WITH THE SEX PISTOLS, THE CLASH SPEARHEADED THE PUNK MOVEMENT WHICH ITSELF CHANGED MUSIC FOREVER. WITH THEIR POLITICALLY CHARGED LYRICS AND ENERGETIC LIVE SHOWS THE CLASH PUT THEMSELVES ON THE MUSIC MAP AND REFUSED TO LEAVE.
The album's title was inspired by the expression "give them enough rope and they'll hang themselves". It was voted album of the year for 1978 by Rolling Stone and Time magazines, as well as the popular UK music weekly, Sounds. The latter gave it a glowing review upon release, with writer Dave McCullough calling it "swash-buckled heavy-metal" and claiming it to be "The best LP since the last Clash LP, both, I personally feel, transcending anything ever recorded".
