LITIK AR DYNGA"
NR 10 NOVEMBER 1977 | The Power of Music | 7 ”POLITICS IS RUBBISH”
Bengt Eriksson: — But there have been times when things were handled. They didn't make any difference either, those who sat there a long time and said what they said in that statement.
Joe Strummer: — The one who knows, knows...
Bengt Eriksson: — Don't you think you can group it then?
Joe Strummer: — Not through fighting and demonstrations. I think that only makes it worse.
Bengt Eriksson: — But you mean it should be handled in other ways?
Joe Strummer: — I usually try to talk to it, and make it realize how wrong it is. Can't one do more than that?
■ FASCIST MUSIC
Bengt Eriksson: — But in England and Sweden , there are some who claim that punk is fascist music...
Joe Strummer: — It depends on the reaction. And that can exist because the kids don't want to know about any prejudices in the school they went to. And what about the older generation that watches? Well, you remind them of Hitler ...
Bengt Eriksson: — How do you explain Nazism in England ?
Joe Strummer: — The young Black person—the one born in England —wants nothing to do with white England . Their music? They pick up prejudices as best they can. But the young person is only interested in their own Black culture. It becomes rebels—"soul rebels"—who don't fit in.
Bengt Eriksson: — Perhaps there are entire neighborhoods where only Black people live. And where a few young people fight over such a thing, it's not so damn strange. They need money. Yes. They can't get a job and have to steal to get money. But for every week, those who grow up become worse.
Bengt Eriksson: — What about the young white workers then? They don't have any jobs either...
Joe Strummer: — Yes, it's claimed that "punks" and "dreads" in London are approaching each other. Reggae bands have, for example, started playing at white clubs. But I am skeptical. I have been to relevant concerts where the audience was there because I was white. There have only been leisure-punks from what I've seen in Hackney .
■ CONTRADICTIONS
Bengt Eriksson: — What do strong contradictions between white musicians and immigrant-colored India say...
Joe Strummer: — Are the reactionaries sleeping? With a life that does that, they are very good at running supermarkets. Every street in every center in every city has a commercial supermarket. And if you are white and don't have a job and no cash, you go there and steal what you need. You don't grill the one you steal from—and they don't grill you.
Bengt Eriksson: — The music comes out of unemployment; can you spit out a previous lack of opinion? But do you entertain yourself much?
Joe Strummer: — The only thing since I left school eight years ago. That song, I've had a job for about five months. I've taken any jobs. Dishwasher, theater machinery...
Bengt Eriksson: — What do you think about the future? Will you end up like Sid Vicious with a nose full of girls in hotel rooms?
Joe Strummer: — I would think so... Anyway. It will end like Johnny Rotten . He sells "old truths," "moralities."
The hungry wolves in a country—which doesn't bring forth any with truths ( David Bowie , Bryan Ferry , Paul Simon , Lou Reed , Mick Jagger , Crosby , Nash , Stills and Young , Dylan , Queen ).
In this picture, you see The Clash when they played at Dad’s Dance Hall in Malmö .
I still think that their first LP is the best album an English punk band has made—100% music, melodies, and lyrics. A clearly political album.
But live at Dad’s , it wasn't great. Noise-ita (as a Clash listener) and Mick Jones were pointed out as simply not being able to keep the beat. Someone wasn't there and the melodies disappeared into the noise.
One has also seen English punk bands in London —who play like an alarm, just the truth, without noise (those who are playing right now are the last thing they will ever do—then The Clash weren't particularly energetic either.*
And it seems just as ridiculous once you've peeled away this punk dream. But in Sweden , it hasn't taken hold much because it doesn't show up in Dada .
Yet the punk bands always get an audience in Sweden . One can wonder about that. But I think I am more surprised that in Sweden , there isn't even any rock that can give the punk audience what punk gives them.
England is just this Sweden —and vice versa.

”LITIK ÄR DYNGA”
— Men det har ju funnits gårdar då och saken hade skötts. Inte gjorde de den någon skillnad ibland också, de som suttit där länge vad man sade om det uttalan.
— Känner den då känner den...
— Tror du inte man kan gruppa den då?
— Inte genom att bråka och demonstrationer. Det tror jag bara gör den sämre.
— Men sökas jollas på andra sätt menar du?
— Jag brukar försöka snacka med den, och få den att inse hur fel den har. Det kan man göra mer?
■ FASCISTMUSIK
— Men England och Sverige finns det ju somliga som menar att punk är fascistmusik...
— Det beror på reaktionen. Och den kan finns för att ungarna vill inte veta nåra fördomar på skolan det gick. Och vad retyr med den stora generationen som ser? Jo, man påminner dem om Hitler ...
— Hur vill du förklara nazismen i England ?
— Den unga svarta — den som är födda i England i alla inte ha sin göra med det vita England . Delsas musik? och snappar fördomar så gott det går. Men den unga är bara intresserade av sin egen svarta kultur. Det blir rebeller — ”soul rebels” — som inte passar in.
— Kanske finns det hela kvarter där det bara bor svarta. Och där ett par ungkraserka bråkar om en sådan lyks att ett kvinna då är det inte så jävla konstigt. Den behöver pengar. Ja. Den kan inte få nåt jobb och måste stjäla för att skaffa pengar. Men för varje vecka den som växer knutarre sämre.
— Om unga vita arbetarna då? Har de ju inte heller några jobb...
— Jo, det påstås ju att ”punks” och ”dreads” i London närmar sig varann. Reggae-banden har t ex börjat spela på vita klubbar. Men jag är skeptisk. Jag har varit på relevanta konserter där publiken fanns mig för att jag varit vit. Det har bara varit fritidspunkts av vad jag haft i Hackney .
■ MOTSÄTTNINGAR
— Vad säger ju också starka motsättningar mellan vita musikalis och invand-rard gula Indien...
— Reaktionärerna sover ni? Med en liv det så gör den är väldigt duktiga på att driva super markets. Varande gata i vartenda centrum i varenda stad har en publicistisk super market. Och är du vit och inte har nått jobb och inga stålar så går du dit och snor det du behöver. Man grillar inte den man snor av — och man grillar inte dig.
— Musiken kommer ur arbetslösheten kan du snytt ut ett tidigare åsiktslöts. Men du själv själv underhålla mycket?
— Enda som jag slutade skolan för åtta år sen. Den låten har jag haft ett jobb i ungefär fem månader. Jag har tagit vilka jobb som helst. Disk-brare, teatermaskineri...
— Hur blir det i framtiden tror du? Kommer du att sluta som Sid Vicious med näsan fullen av flickornas på hotellrummen?
— Skulle tro det...
Alltså. Det kommer att sluta som för Johnny Rotten . Han säljer ”gamla sanningar”, ”moraliteter”.
De hungriga vargar i ett land — som inte bär fram för nåra med sanningar ( David Bowie , Bryan Ferry , Paul Simon , Lou Reed , Mick Jagger , Crosby , Nash , Stills och Young , Dylan , Queen ).
INTERVJU: BENGT ERIKSSON — MATS ZETTERBERG FOTO: MATS BACKER — THORE ANDERSSON
På den här bilden ser ni Clash när den spelade på Dad’s Dance Hall i Malmö .
Jag tycker fortfarande att deras första LP är den bästa platta ett engelskt punkband gjort — 100% musik, melodier och texter. En klart politisk platta.
Men live på Dad’s var det inget vidare. Oljud-ita (har som Clash -lyssnare) som och Mick Jones pekades av att det helt enkelt inte kunde hålla takten. Någon inte fanns och melodierna försvann i oljudet.
Man har dessutom sett engelska punkband i London — som spelar som en larm bara sanningen, utan oljud (dem som spelar just nu är det sista som nånsin kommer att göra — då var Clash inte heller särskilt energiska.*
Och det verkar lika löjligt när man väl avskalat denna punkdröm. Men i Sverige har det fått tag i det lite för till för där dyker den inte upp i Dada .
Ändå får alltid punkbanden en publik-schaft i Sverige . Det kan man förvåna sig över. Men jag tror att det uppväxer som jag är mer förvånad över att det i Sverige inte ens finns nån rock som kan ge punkpubliken det punken ger dem.
England är bara det-ts Sverige — och tvärtom.

CLASH : AT DAD'S DANCEHALL , MALMÖ 7/10-77
The "famous" Lund group New Bondage was the first opening act. And they really fired up the crowd, largely because the singer and guitarist Henrik Hwargård came out with nothing on his upper body and black Lou Reed glasses, a huge contrast. They ran through their songs with wonderful energy and feeling. They played, among others, their upcoming single " Shocked & Defeated ", their own " Got No Job ", and Wayne County's " Cream In My Jeans ". This was probably the breakthrough for New Bondage . Now they can be counted as one of the best punk groups in Skåne , if not the best.
The Malmö group Problem was the next band. They didn't have a particularly successful evening even though they got to borrow the Englishmen's equipment. Only the song " Jag Vill Inte Ha " ( I Don't Want ) went over well.
After a half-hour wait, Strummer and Co. came onto the stage and immediately kicked off with " London's Burning ". It is a tremendous feeling to see and hear Strummer scream: "London's burning with boredom now/London's burning dial 999" . After this song, the little Johnny Rotten -copy Nicky Headon hammered out " 1977 ". Paul Simenon rumbles with his bass, and Mick Jones is a damn good guitarist, but he hardly gets to show it at concerts; however, he showed it during the soundcheck. There, he did some wonderfully beautiful solos and got lovely tones out of his guitar. After " 1977 " followed a lot of songs in quick succession. Including the rebellious " Hate & War " and the new single " Complete Control ", which is a lovely mix of punk and reggae. A direction that The Clash will likely show on their next LP, which should come out sometime early next year. They also played " Remote Control ", " Janie Jones ", " 48 Hours ", and a lot of other songs from the LP.
LITTLE NICKY HEADON, WHOM YOU RARELY SEE IN PHOTOS
After 50 minutes of wonderfully beautiful music, the concert was over. But by then, they had managed the encores " White Riot " and " 1977 " (one more time). The Clash are without a doubt the pillars of punk along with the Sex Pistols and perhaps some other group; they proved that this evening.

NONCHA ALLT : Were there any punks there? MICK JONES : Yes, there were a few, but the main thing isn't being a punk, it's that you like the music . NONCHA ALLT : True, but in Germany they mostly listen to electronic music, like Kraftwerk . PAUL SIMENON : I don't know, I don't listen to that stuff . NONCHA ALLT : What do you think of the other punk bands in England ? PAUL SIMENON : Half of them are just crap, but there are some good groups, such as Glen Matlock's Rich Kids . NONCHA ALLT : Do you believe this talk that Glen Matlock wrote the Sex Pistols' songs and that they are nothing without him?

CLASH : PÅ DAD'S DANCEHALL , MALMÖ 7/10-77
Den "berömda" Lundagruppen New Bondage var första förbandel. Och dom tände verkligen publiken, mycket beroende på att sångaren och gitarristen Henrik Hwargård kom in utan någonting på överkroppen och svarta Lou Reed -glasögon, en enorm kontrast. Dom drug igenom sina låtar med en härlig energi och känsla. Dom spelade bl.a. sin kommande singel " Shocked & Defeated ", deras egen " Got No Job " och Wayne County's " Cream In lly Jeans ". Detta ver var nog genombrottet för New Bondage . Nu kan dom räkna sig till en av de bästa punk-grupperna i Skåne , om inte den bästa.
Malmö -gruppen Problem var nästa band. Dom hade inte någon direkt lyckad kväll fastän dom fick låna engelsmännens utrustning. Det var bara låten " Jag Vill Inte Ha " som gick hem.
Efter en halvtimmes väntan så kom Strummer och Co. in på scenen och drog direkt igång med " London's Burning ". Det är en fruktansvärd feeling att se och höra Strummer skrika: "London's burning with boredom now/London's burning dial 999". Efter denna låten bankade lille Johnny Rotten -kopian Nicky Headon igång " 1977 ". Paul Simenon mullrar med sin bas och Mick Jones är en jävligt bra gitarrist men han år knappast visa det på konserter men han visade det på sound-checkingen. Dů gjorde han några underbart sköna solon och fick fram härliga toner ur sin gitarr. Efter " 1977 " följde en massa låtar i snabb följd. Bl.a. upproriska " Hate & War " och den nya singeln " Complete Control " som är en härlig blandning av punk och reggae. En riktning som Clash visar antagligen på sin nästa LP som ska komma någon gång i början på nästa år. Man spelade också " Remote Control ", " Janie Jones ", " 48 Hours " ech en massa andra låtar från LPIn.
LILLE NICKY HEADON SOM MAN SÄLLAN SER PÅ KORTTCHE
Efter 50 minuters underbart skön musik var konserten slut. Men då hade man hunnit med extranimren " White Riot " och " 1977 " (en gång till). The Clash är utan tvekan punkens stötepelare tillsammans med Sex Pistols och kanske någon annan grupp, det bevisade mon denna kvällen.
...INTERVJU MED THE CLASH EFTER SOUND CHECKINGEN... / ANARCHY & BITCH
JOE STRUMMER : PAUL SIMENON : NONCHA ALLT : Dom säger att The Jam gjorde succé här förra gången. Ja, då får väl vi spela ännu bättre idag dâ. Vet ni vad som hände med The Stranglers ? JOE STRUMMER : Jo då... NONCHA ALLT : Var ska ni spela imorgon? PAUL SIMENON : Något jävla ställe som heter Ronneby .

NONCHA ALLT : Det var ju där som dom kastade ägg på The Jam för något tag sedan. Pörresten var spelade ni igår. PAUL SIMENON : Jag vet inte. Kommer du ihåg det Mick ? MICK JONES : Ja, det var i Hamburg . Det var ung. 1000 personer som såg oss. NONCHA ALLT : Var det något tryck uå? MICK JONES : Jo faktiskt. NONCHA ALLT : Var det några punkare där? MICK JONES : Jo, det fanns några men huvudsaken är Ju inte att man är punkare utan att man gillar musiken. NONCHA ALLT : Jo,men i Tyskland lyssnar dom ju mest på elektronisk musik, som Kraftwerk . PAUL SIMENON : Jag vet inte, lyssnar inte på sådant. NONCHA ALLT : Vad tycker ni om de andra punk-banden 1 England ? PAUL SIMENON : Hälften av dom är bara skit men det finns en del bra grupper så som Glen Matlock's Rich Kids . NONCHA ALLT : Tror ni på det här snacket om att Glen Matlock skrev Sex Pistols låtar och att dom utan honom inte är något?
PAUL SIMENON UNDER JINTERVJUN.. FOTO ARTCHISE
PAUL SIMENON : Jag vet inte, jag spelar ju inte i Sex Pistols . NONCHA ALLT : Har ni hört många av dom här nya banden? PAUL SIMENON : Nã, vi eller rättare sagt jag går inte ut så mycket i London . MICK JONES : Finns det folk som gillar dom här banden så låt dom göra det, bara dom har kul. NONCHA ALLT : Vad tycker ni om dom amerikanska banden, t.ex. Heartbreakers och Wayne County ? JOE STRUMMER : Jag har sett dom men jag gillar dom inte. NONCHA ALLT : Men Ramones då? JOE STRUMMER : Jo, dom är skitbra och Patti Smith Group också.
