Crass

[gorillafuck]

Who here listens to the anarcho-punk band Crass? They are one of my favorite bands, and my favorite songs by them are probably Sheep Farming In The Falklands, End Result, and It's The Greatest Working Class Rip-off.

[FreeFocus]

I only like a few songs, most notably "Bloody Revolutions" and "If There Was No Government." Those are really good.

Gave my 2 cents there.

[gorillafuck]

I agree that they are too serious, they even poked fun at themselves for it in Have A Nice Day

[thejambo1]

[Sasha]

dont like Crass never did, not musicaly and espacely not politicaly.
I'm with mark barnsley (http://users.macunlimited.net/markbarnsley/) on this one, he once said when crass came up in an discussion that Crass with their pacifist preaching was the single most damaging thing ever to hapen to the revolutonary potential of the punk and anarchist scene.

[AAFCE]

I like Crass.

Favorite song is "Fuck All Government"

Gives me the lulz

"So What" isnt too bad either

[Foldered]

Crass has always been one of my favourite punk bands.

[Incendiarism]

I can't even listen to them anymore. I've honestly tried to put on one of my favorite songs by them(So What) and I just turn it off because it makes me mad for some reason.

I used to be heavily into them for the longest time, now I just can't take the pacifist posturing, the moralistic preaching, or the crappy musicianship.

[Louis Pio]

Crass is horrible, nuff said.

A better idea would be to check out the myriads of punk bands who are better musicians and write better lyrics

[ZeroNowhere]

Crass are nothing compared to the Subhumans. Nothing.

[Lord Testicles]

I like Crass, some of my favourite songs:

Crass were fucking Brilliant! IMO

They are the embodiment of PunkRock not to mention the awsome druming

but i hate how they have people worship them their great but come on their not like a holy untouchable band or something along the lines like that

also not a big fan of pacifisism but eh

Crass were wannabee punks but they never were....

[Dave_OI!]

Crass are nothing compared to the Subhumans. Nothing.

agreed

[Invincible Summer]

Crass - I tried to like them, but I couldn't take their terrible production and generally bad music.

I like punk, but Crass is just terrible.

It's all about the crust for me.

They rejected their pacifism at the end.

[StalinFanboy]

Crass were wannabee punks but they never were....
I have this strange feeling that they never really cared a bunch about being punk...

[nuisance]

One of my favourite bands.

[Qayin]

fight war not wars!

kidding crass sucks.

[xMSMx]

Crass... No!

[Skin_HeadBanger]

I love Crass. Big A Little A is a great song. I personally like Conflict more though.:thumbup1:

[Kernewek]

I like crass penis envy would be my favourite album, always thought crisis were better though

[thejambo1]

good call i always thought crisis were a top class band,death in june were a bit dodgy tho.

[Kernewek]

probably put crisis down as my favoret political band, had some classs tunes

used to listen to death in june a lot when I was younger, dunno what I saw in them now
I'm not sure how to view them really, on one had they seem to promote a romantisised view of nazism but then one of the members got kicked out for being a nazi, think their image is more about the main guy getting off to big men in uniforms rather than any political motivation

[Anarchyandpeace]

I love Crass. Big A Little A is a great song. I personally like Conflict more though.:thumbup1:

Love Conflict too :thumbup1: Any Discharge fans ?

[Angry Young Man]

[Arise!]

Flux of Pink Indians :cool: They lie,we die :thumbup1:

[Riot11]

Cant say I was ever able to get behind Crass. To little talent I would suppose. But what ever to each their own.
