I don't think they would have ever actually said they wouldn't try to rise above "amature punk" given where they went to, but in terms of not caring about who likes them, it's true. I'm also pretty sure that the guy who said the band should lock themselves in a garage did not sleep very much afterwards for the rest of his life.
I wanted to say something about the actual sound on the album, which is great: having Jones's guitar on the left playing more subdued staccato lines and solos while Strummer's guitar is on the right playing full heavy rhythm. It's brilliant and this is one of the tracks that really shows it the most.
