The Jam were an English punk rock band formed in Woking, Surrey in 1972. Comprising of Paul Weller on vocals and guitar, Bruce Foxton on bass guitar, and Rick Buckler on drums, they achieved widespread popularity during the late 1970s and early 1980s with their catchy tunes and socially conscious lyrics.
Known for their energetic live performances and distinctive mod style, The Jam became one of the most influential bands of the British punk movement. Their music blended elements of punk, new wave, and mod revival to create a unique sound that resonated with audiences across the UK.
With hits like "Town Called Malice," "Going Underground," and "That's Entertainment," The Jam left a lasting impact on the music industry. Despite disbanding in 1982 after just six years together, their legacy continues to inspire generations of musicians today.

Rough Trade Essential

All Mod Cons from 1978 is where everything really came together for the Jam. The songs and the writing matured by leaps and bounds compared to This is the Modern World. Weller has some of his best work on this album including the beautiful ballad English Rose, the stumbling anger of the title track, and the chilling Down in a Tube Station at Midnight with it's rapid fire drums and funky walking bass lending a real sense of urgency to the story being unfolded by Weller. His social commentary here is biting and pissed off and though the music spread out in more directions with Weller building off his various influences (especially R&amp;B), the spirit of the album is punk, through and through. a wonderful album that gets stronger with every listen and it remains one of the great original punk albums as well as one of the great British albums of all time.
