Punk's great expansion: London Calling treats the genre's year-zero rules as a dare, absorbing rockabilly, reggae, jazz and pop across nineteen tracks without losing the urgency. The title track's apocalypse, "Guns of Brixton"'s dub menace, "Train in Vain"'s secret pop heart — a double album with no fat and no fear.
