In the eighties, The Alarm tried sooo hard to be U2 but could never quite measure up. Where Bono could be overblown as well as profound, Mike Peters just came across as bombastic.

Now the mimicry continues. Only this time it is The Clash they are imitating on their latest release, "Guerilla Tactics".

As usual, what is lacking in depth and vision is made up for with impassioned rally crys and more volume. The Alarm suffers from having lots to say but no real message.
