About this album
This Is The Modern World finds The Jam tightening their mod-punk attack into a sharper, more focused statement. Released in 1977, the band’s second album caught Paul Weller, Bruce Foxton and Rick Buckler pushing beyond debut-era rawness toward a concise social snapshot of late-70s Britain. With its clipped rhythms, wiry guitar and restless energy, the record leans into songs like the title track, “The Modern World” and “In The Street, Today”, mixing punk immediacy with a keen eye for urban detail. It became an important step in the group’s rapid rise and a key early document of British mod revival confidence.
