Default BOTB - Poll 1 - The Clash vs. The Police
I'll keep this poll open for 24 hours from the posting time.

To help you make an informed decision - a few songs from both.

The Clash:

Youtube video

I Fought The Law

Youtube video

Should I Stay Or Should I Go?

The Police:

Youtube video

Every Breath You Take

Youtube video

Message In A Bottle

-------------------------------------------------------------

Feel free to make your cases for either in the thread

The Police by far. They can write and perform about so many different things. A lot of Punk is just a glorified cultural cul de sac.

The Clash. One of my all time favourite bands. A lot of punk sounds the same, but when you hear The Clash, you just know it's them. They have such a unique sound.

I'm going to declare this closed a few hours early considering the result is quite clear.

The Police are through.
