Posted by aubin on Tuesday, November 24, 2009 at 12:00 PM (EST)

Carbon/Silicon, the ongoing project from Mick Jones of The Clash, Big Audio Dynamite and Tony James of Generation X have posted their second album for free download. The band, first announced in 2004, had become known for their open policy towards file sharing, making all recordings available freely online and encouraging bootlegging at live performances. The band has four songs available on their myspace page and countless more on their official website.

The new record follows their 2007 album, The Last Post, and can be found here.

Definitely gonna give these guys a listening, always eager to support bands who support free digital music.

There's one song in there that reminds me of a Stryder song... just with Mick Jones singing.

Stryper???

It's easy to support free music when you've already made your killing from the music industry.

Really? There's a ton of bands / musicians who've made a lot of money in the music industry. Are there others who give away ALL their material for free?

KungPowza (November 24, 2009)

I totally agree with you, which is why I don't get why more major recording artists don't follow suit.

CBS fucked the Clash. Joe said one of his biggest regrets was signing that contract without reading it. Now people other then the members in the Band are making money off of what I feel is the greatest band of all time. Read a book.

The Last Post had a couple decent songs, but that was it. I hope this is better.
