Despite the tepid production by metal guru Sandy Pearlman, the Clash's sophomore album, Give 'Em Enough Rope, manages to burn with white-hot intensity. Though not as amateurish or snarling as their debut album, Rope finds the boys flexing their songwriting muscles. The first three songs ("Safe European Home," "English Civil War," and "Tommy Gun") stand among their most powerful and leap from the record with brute force. Though they hit a few clunkers ("Cheapskates"), this album is a near classic and gives a hint of the band to come that would light up the world with London Calling. --Tod Nelson

Strummer and co. even skewer many of their own fans in the album's final song. "All the Young Punks" was the best send-up of an artist's own fan base until Nirvana released "In Bloom". If you are even a casual fan of the Clash or 70's punk get this album.

Reviewed in Canada on December 29, 2018
Now admittedly the field of punk bands' second albums, let alone good second albums is pretty limited, but even so "Give 'em Enough Rope" is a strong contender for the title of punk rock's best "difficult second" album with its excellent singles "Tommy Gun" and "English Civil War" as well as the superb "Safe European Homes" and the sublime "Julie's Been Working For The Drug Squad". OK so it's only 10 tracks long, but this was from a time when album length was limited by vinyl capacity and all bands knew that their best policy was to leave you wanting more (this was before The Clash sacrificed quality control for length with the over long "London Calling" and even longer "Sandinista" albums), and yes the production is poor with the Strummer's vocals too low in the mix, and yes they were tipping their hats to the American market with a harder rock feel; but this is still a strong set of songs from one of the few bands that was keeping the original flame of punk burning.
Buy it you already own The Clash's eponymous debut and want to hear more punk rock from them before they came over all reggae, rockabilly, ska, New Orleans, pop, and jazzy.
