Speaking of punk/funk hybrids, consider Gang of Four–contemporaries of the Clash and spiritual antecedents to Fugazi’s brand of political bass-heavy punk fury.
Punk has always been used as a vehicle for political dissent, but Entertainment! is one of its defining statements. From the album art with its white guilt and class warfare and the news-headline lyrics to the screeching guitars, angular drumbeats, and huge basslines, this is everything that has ever been right with punk.
