Band

 One of my favourites band is The Clash. It is a british punk group at the end decade of '70. Their memebers were Joe Strummer, Paul Simonon, Mick Jones and Keith Levene. Actually, they are one of the most important band of the first wave of punk, accompanied with Sex Pistols. This band plays principally punk, but with the pass of time, they mixed a lot of types of music, like rockabilly, reggae, ska and others.
I like this group because the combination of different kind of music makes the songs and their disc very special, in addittion, every lyrics of their songs give an opinion and a critic about how is the society, reflections about how the system affect us and how the state is acting over us.
My favourites discs are Sandinista! and London Calling, but the song that I like the most is Guns of Brixton. This song is a protest against the police of  the district of Brixton, because the violence of policemen was excessive. I think this song represents the situation in Chile nowadays, because the behaviuor of this group was terrible, the violence against students, teachers, to port case, bus drivers and others society sectors, has been repressive and incarcerate unfairly.
