It’s well known the influence Joe Strummer and The Clash had on a number of bands across the golden indie generation. One such band is The Strokes and back in 2004 the band paid tribute to the punk icons with a cover their brilliant track ‘Clampdown’.

During a raucous set in 2004 at T in the Park, with The Strokes at the height of the powers, the band delivered an impassioned, if slightly wobbly, rendition of the London Calling banger.
