Shortly after the release of their landmark 1979 LP London Calling, The Clash found themselves being referred to in marketing and by fans all over as "The Only Band That Matters". This moniker attaches itself well to a band that made protest and social justice a major focus of their lyrical messages, so it has stuck fairly well all these years later.
According to a 2013 interview with CNN, Mick Jones said, "the record company came up with that; it wasn't us. We weren't like trying to blow our own trumpets. It was kind of a moniker and it stuck. Every group wants to be the best group when you're young."
CBS Records, the label that The Clash were signed to throughout their run as a group, definitely used the slogan abundantly to help sell the band even harder. Musician Gary Lucas has claimed to be the originator of the phrase at the record label, as he was working in their creative services department at that time.

Who is The Clash?
They were a British band from the 70's and 80's. They did that song "Rock the Casbah".Answer: What is The ClashThe clash was an English punk rock band that was active from 1976 to 1986. They were one of the most successful abd iconic bands from the original wave of punk rock in the late 1970s, and went on to incorporate punk with reggae, rockabilly, dance, jazz, ska, and eventually many other styles into their repertoire. The Clash were legendary for their intense stage performances. The Clash stood apart from their punk peers with their skilled musicianship and the passionate, left-wing political idealism in the lyrics of frontman Joe Strummer and Mike Jones. This contrasted sharply with the nihilism of the Sex Pistols and the three-chord simplicity of the Ramones. Although the Clash were a major success in the UK from the release of their first album in 1977, they did not become popular in the US until 1980.Their third album, the late 1979 release London Calling is an influential album in the history of rock music; it was released in the US in 1980, and a decade later Rolling Stone magazine declared it the best album of the 1980s. Rolling Stone also placed it at #8 on their list in 2003 of the 500 greatest albums of all time.The Clash's attitude and style, as much as their music, strongly influenced many other bands from the 1980s. In 2003 they were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. In 2004, Rolling Stone ranked the Clash #30 on their list of the 100 Greatest Artists of All Time. Epic Records dubbed them "The Only Band That Matters". -Wikipedia, the free encyclopeda www.wikipedia.org
