Cut the Crap is the sixth and final studio album by the English punk band the Clash. It was recorded in early 1985 at Weryton Studios, Munich, and released on 4 November 1985 by Epic Records. It followed a turbulent period for the band, after the dismissal of co-founder, lead guitarist and principal songwriter Mick Jones and drummer Topper Headon, by lead vocalist Joe Strummer and bassist Paul Simonon.

Cut the Crap is the sixth and final studio album by the English punk rock band the Clash, released in November 1985 on Epic Records. It was recorded after members Topper Headon (drums) and guitarist Mick Jones had been fired from the band, and their manager Bernie Rhodes took over studio production. The album is considered their weakest, and was ridiculed on release by the UK weekly music press. Rhodes recruited the then unknown musicians Nick Sheppard, Pete Howard and Vince White to replace Jones and Headon. The Clash split up soon after

It’s the only Clash album not to feature Jones and, boy, is he missed. Mick Jones had been the heart of the Clash – providing the emotion, the yearning, the melody, the groove – and without him, the band were reduced to a two-dimensional mess, a relic desperately trying to stay angry and relevant

Almost every biography or documentary ever made about The Clash ignores Cut the Crap. There are many reasons for this, including that Clash fans generally hate the album, and the fact that it’s nearly impossible to get anyone involved with the album to talk about it. The core members of The Clash had been Joe Strummer, Mick Jones, Paul Simonon, and Topper Headon

Cut the Crap is the Black- Sheep of Clash Albums. It has been demonized by critics and fans alike but is it really that bad". In 1982 Drummer Topper Headon was booted for excessive drug use. Then the following year guitarist Mick Jones was sacked due to a horrible falling out with Joe Strummer. All that remained of the original clash was Strummer and bassist Paul Simonon. in 1985 they enlisted Nick Sheppard and Vince White on guitar and Pete Howard on drums. With Strummer in the lead Cut the crap came to be. Sadly the title pretty much sums up the album.
