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.

Back In Stock

back in stock in the year of punk 1977, the jam's exploded onto the music scene with this seminal debut album. the raw, unfettered aggression of the band's approach was well in keeping with the spirit of the times, but the heart of their songs and sound lay in the mod movement of the mid-'60s (early who, creation, etc.). singer/guitarist paul weller comes off like a cross between joe strummer and the young pete townshend, bashing unreservedly through 'slow down,' one of the r&amp;b tunes that inspired the original mods. weller extols the virtues of frenzied dancing and nonconformist youth culture ('non-stop dancing,' 'away from the numbers') over the raging three-chord attack of bassist bruce foxton and drummer rick buckler. the pure punk insouciance of his words and delivery is a perfect match for the raging but hooky arrangements, which basically consisted of the band walking into the studio and blazing through their live set. rickenbacker guitars never sounded so thick, and skinny ties never seemed less geeky.
