Harder Than the Rest has more of an edge.
Two Sevens Clash is a mellower album but really does capture the essence of reggae music and the Rastafarian message better than any other album of the late Seventies. At the time of it's release it was a breath of fresh air into the reggae scene in Jamaica because it was optimistic opposed to the fire, brimstone and apocalyptic sermons of earlier Rastafarian musicians. Culture grew into a harder edged band with
Columbo and
Harder Than the Rest.
