Tommy Gun’ is a high-energy punk anthem released by The Clash in 1978, from their album *Give ‘Em Enough Rope*. The song critiques terrorism and warfare, with powerful, machine-gun-like drumming and sharp lyrics from Joe Strummer. Directed by Don Letts, the music video captures the band’s raw and politically charged performance style.
