Well, Aspects are hard to describe, and don't worry this list is going to be 100 albums, the reviews will be longer the more I care about the album.

97.
The Clash-London Calling (1996)
Joe Strummer turns in epic vocal after epic vocal, on the Magnum Opus of punk, while Mick and the rest of the gang become the first band to dabble in various world pop forms(Lost In The Supermarket most notably). Being the first punk band to dare incorperate pop into their music the Clash sound uncertain at times here, escpecially in moments Brand New Cadillac where they seem like they're forcing themsselves to stick within traditional punk boundaries. Overall the album comes across as a somewhat musically jumbled affair, always on the verge of falling apart. Thank god for Joe Strummer, because without him the album would lack direction, but instead his rough growling of endearing yet powerful lyrics is the glue that holds it all together.
