It's a good cover, but they didn't need to change the line 'Punk rockers in the UK' to 'Punk rockers in LA' after mentioning British punk figures, 'UK pop reggae' and the British Army...

The Clash shall never be topped, this is quite the cover though and I HATE covers, hats off as well but no one can redo the original White Man In The Palais, such a brilliantly written song.

Yet another great cover by 311. This album...Burning London...is really, really good. If you don't have it I definitely reccomend picking it up.
