    Doesn't get much better than this track or album for that matter. London Calling is a top 4 or 5 Double LP of all time.

    I do enjoy Def Leppard from time to time, but this was an easy call for me.

    And it isn't close. The Clash is the shit.

    Completely different genres, but I agree. I will say though, I saw them open for the Who in the KingDome and they sounded pretty shitty. But then again, it was the KingDome, acoustically about as shitty as you can get. The Who just powered their way over the shitty acoustics, but they sounded a lot better when they played at the Coliseum.

    This is a tough one. The Clash are a more influential Band but Def Leppard had 2 legendary albums that put them over the top for me.

    The Clash is for intellectual wanna-bes.

    I don't even count anything Def Leppard did after Pyromania. If I did, they would lose to a pile of ostrich shit.

    I am a HUGE Clash fan, and I don't even know what intellectual means. Your argument is invalid.
    If I had to pinpoint the moment I truly understood why your people lost the US it’d be the moment I realized members of your race produced non-intellectual Clash fans.

    Well, that or when I heard about smallpox blankets.
    We are genetic chicanery.

    Trashy, effeminate hair metal needs more appreciation.

    Another shit band that only writers say were great just to have a band they liked and they could shit on the readers for not understanding. Shareef don't like it and neither does the common man

    I like the part where they were rapping in 1980. Not very creative for some try hard Brit white boys.

    Def Leopard has some of the best rock ballads of the 80's. Iconic 80's band.

    You can hate the Clash if you want but fuck DL and fuck all these votes for a bunch of shitty butt rock bands. Swaye is probably the only person here who could manage to make butt rock cool and even he voted for the Clash.

    Which song is more likely to get you laid on a first date at the end of lover's lane? Hysteria, or London fucking Calling....
