Nothing divides punk
rock more than bringing in those loveable anarchists Crass into the
debate.
For some Crass in
their attitudes, music and beliefs were the first to crystallise the
potential of punk as a political force and to effect change by challenging
both the system and the individual. Indeed Crass had the power to
touch and change people's lives in ideas and thoughts.
For
others Crass were the death knell to a movement that had progressed from
having no rules and a scattergun approach to all philosophies and mores to
what appeared to be a more rigid organised and political approach that was
as restrictive and as intolerant as the very people and organisations it
attacked.
Whatever your
viewpoint the band certainly made an impact . |
