For the nearly 10 years of their inception, The Clash were responsible for both defining and then expanding the sound of punk rock in the late 70s and early 80s. The songwriting duo of Joe Strummer and Mick Jones were responsible for introducing elements of reggae, hip-hop, new wave, and disco to the genre, as well a recording some of the most beloved punk albums and singles of all time, including albums like London Calling and Sandanista, which are frequently listed as among the greatest rock records ever released.In spite of their success, the band collapsed hard during the mid-80s. During this time their drummer Topper Headon as well as Jones were fired from the band, while Joe Strummer's mental wellness gradually deteriorated, allowing their hubristic manager to take control of the sound of what would be their final album. Far from the back to basics record it was intended to be, 1985's Cut The Crap was a messy deluge of drum machines, tuneless synths, questionable samples, and amateur-level production quality.Welcome to season four of Jukebox Zeroes! In our inaugural episode, Lilz &amp; Patrick dig into Cut The Crap with assistance from return-guest Austin Scholl of post-punk project ThornBrain &amp; Let's Play series TheStrawHatNO!.

054 - The Clash - Cut The Crap (1985) (with Austin Scholl)

As the 1980s came to a close, the famed progressive rock group Yes had achieved major commercial and critical success over the course of several albums, but their lineup became splintered over time. A chance meeting between current Yes guitarist Trevor Rabin, and original vocalist Jon Anderson, who had recently formed a new supergroup with several other previous Yes members. (ABWH) The two brainstormed demos off of each other, and expressed an interest in collaborating. This discussion would make its way back to Yes' management, who turned the small collaboration between Anderson and Rabin into a merging of Yes' current lineup and ABWH.The album was appropriately titled Union, saw release in 1991, and featured a massive 8-member lineup of Yes that was inevitably too stacked and front-loaded to not turn into a mess behind the scenes. The record itself meanwhile was mostly dismissed by critics, who considered the album bloated and uninteresting, while the band members themselves largely reject Union to this day, referring to it more as a failed project than a proper Yes record.On this episode of Jukebox Zeroes, Lilz &amp; Patrick meet up with Austin Scholl, the musician behind the post-punk outfit ThornBrain, and a YouTube streamer under the StrawHatNO channel. Join them as they give a listen to Union and decide for themselves whether the album was a failed project or not.Local Music Feature: "Bird Ghosts" by Smell
