  • Gagieboi I could be wrong but I think that person is wishing peace to our own kind not to the establishment. Whos side are you on?

  • @OscarTheOptimist You talk about tearing down the establishment and then finishwith that hippie shit "Peace dude?"

  • Granola rock!

  • See Steve Ignorant in No More Propaganda, 77 minute DVD.

  • @OscarTheOptimist I definitely agree, man. Politics has gotten lazy in America.

    Everyone is so passive about everything.

  • @INITIALSJE Hard for people to feel hate in this country. Whenyou have ipods and v8 vehicles and food stamps and unemployment. Or newcloths from banana republic. No the lines are blurred. People dont watch the news they say its depressing That makes me want to kill myself If you dont care and thats the general feeling how can I hope to be anything more than a marytar.08 presidential election was a fucking joke No one new the mans issues. "They said you said you knew his issues" idk his issues.."

  • @OscarTheOptimist I think anarchism still has it's purposes, sure but it depends on your perspective use of it. I was just saying that the real punk movement is dead.

    I never said it's spirit died.

  • @INITIALSJE

    punk people say is dead yet could it be that punk has yet to show its change to other values in live that most peopled havent associated punk with for a long while snice to much punk of its day people knew for anti goverment or anti drugs(straight egde momement) it could be we all yet have to see the second comming of the good ole punk in the new generations of people hardcore anarco all the punk generes will come back if the powder kegs hit with just the right spark.

  • @dadyoman You're right to some degree. I'm not knocking what you're saying at all. And I think the attitude is still here, it's just never going to have the same energy as it once did.

  • @dadyoman Punks not dead.

  • ANARCHY AND PEACE!

  • Stonehenge 1979 never forget it

  • CITIZEN FISH play Birmingham UK on Friday 27th August 2010. theticketsellers.co.uk/buy_tic­kets/events/?id=10011628 for tickets!

  • After 30 years of listening to it I still don't know what punk is or isn't. But I sure know CRASS are fantastic

  • The biggest bunch of humourless hatefilled numbskulls I have ever had the pleasure of listening to! Long live Crass.

  • As a matter of fact, Craas really ain't no Punk Rockers. They said so themselves, by stating they just made noise because apparently that was the way to reach te youth in those days. But they are definitely not a bunch of hippies, but serious anarchists, except maybe teve...

  • Crass not punk? Hippies? what the fuck! Dumb ass knows nothing of punk music history, so a lesson ya cum dumpster .yeah so Anarchy and peace is what they called for but knew it never could be - they were political punk, really started it. Way before the pistols they had that purley industrial english fuck you punk style all to their own you dip shit. No one sounded like them, some tried but failed except the pistols who got the anarchy shit drictly from who - yeah ya putz - it was fucking Crass

  • @Syncue Crass were a good band but they didn't start before the Pistols mate. Check your facts. Btw anyone saying "THIS AND THAT IS NOT PUNK" clearly has no clue, and there's plenty of idiots like that nowadays.Punk is not an elitistic clique, it's actually the opposite, it stands against any form of elitism because it stands against any form of oppression. There are no dress codes, no rules other than mutual respect.

  • LUST FOR HATE U FUCKIN INSANE?

  • Really, Crass was just a bunch of old hippies jumping on the "punk" bandwagon. They weren't real punk rockers. Fact.

  • what? are u insane? fuckin' hell.............

  • No i'm not insane, it's a fact that Crass were a bunch of old hippies jumping on the "punk" bandwagon. They weren't real punk rockers and never will be. It's a fact.

  • what? are u fuckin insane?

  • back then scene jumping wasnt like it is today. all this shit was just getting going. im sure youre a douche tho.

  • @timhx1138 I'm glad one of your hobbies is "learning" because you've got a long way to go. Calling someone a "douche" is so internet age that it doesn't mean anything. And don't talk about the "scene" back then because you have no clue. Absolutely no clue, and the same goes for 95% of people who claim to understand what punk is. The world is now polluted with internet age kids pseudo-punk rockers and you're obviously one of them.

  • its called banned from the roxy. first one is anyway

  • fucking awesome... check out the Crass video I made!!

  • fuck de banks

  • we need a new rebellious anarchy band like this that is new.

    im up for it.

  • @george1punk2 my band

  • yea fuking punk rock jaja

  • @george1punk2 No, we don't. Punk lives on through the original songs, but an actual resurgence of punk will never happen again. U can't do something like that now days. It wouldn't be the same thing however hard u try. You can try & be original but it won't b called "punk". There r tons of great bands that spawned out of the punk movement & r still around today, as well as newer bands and even they understood the importance of evolving into something else, as do most of the bands from that era.

  • @george1punk2 i'm in a anarcho band :)

  • @george1punk2 we could call it "storm in an English Breakfast teacup". Funny as hell. And serious as yeah yeah yeah.

  • @george1punk2 people are too much of a pussy now to create a band like this. Green day? Fuck 'em. They're nothing but greedy wankers. The casualties? Nothing but fucking posers and sellouts. Fuck 'em. Fuck 'em ALL.

  • yeeeeaah

  • No Crass no political opinions, Crass Rules

  • One of the very few "original" punk bands.

  • Crass,good band,good idea, self oppressing idea. Atleast they tried though.

  • to slow for me...no bad feelings,but dont like it! :(

  • this is before speed

  • ok!i respect that! but i cant no listen to this!but respect anyway!!!

  • i understand but what it lacks in speed it makes up for in anger try listening to the real album not any live stuff ! this is the roots of hardcore music no crass no discharge-no thrash

  • You know what is annoying? Reading all these comments on who's punk or not....it's just a word like any other word, when it comes down to it we are just HUMANS.....just respect each others opinions and please stop bickering for ten pages....

  • i totally agree

  • I fell off a chair. That's punk.

  • "PUNK"...doesn't care about what anyone thinks,"PUNK" has no regard for opinions or concerns.

  • that is punk:respecting each other opinions and not hating anyone!

  • Comment removed

  • I have no idea why I like them. In terms of Music I only know what I enjoy and what I don't.

  • thats bloody awful!

  • i know isent it wonderful fuck i love it

  • a band that changed so many lives would i have been the person I am without this band exsisting???

  • i certainly would not be...

  • Punk Rock, dai suki desu.........

  • too many times people confuse aesthetics with substance.Who gives a shit if one calls onself a punk? Sometimes people do try too hard though. But I wouldn't call them a poser. Only people with insecurities about themselves are gonna call someone a poser. Punks are all like-don't judge me!...but i am gonna judge you...you are a poser! It's just a bunch of adolescents looking for a more authentic way to live...discovering their identity.

  • whats the problem w/ wanting to live more authentically. why dont u leave the punks alone, there going out there exposing themselves to haters(like you), and doing what they love, going to concerts listening/playing music, having fun, while all u do ks sit back in ur chair and analyze them. someone should analyze u. hav u realized that everyone who has played music, has done it to live a more individual authentic life, so therefore u mustbe against music, and its purpose.

  • I dont understand that word "hater" whats the problem with hate? I hate the government for proposing ID cards, does that make me a "hater"? No it means I dont want to lose my right of owning my own iris and fingerprints

  • For those who misunderstood my former comment, I am saying that A.I am responding to people calling others posers B. I like Crass C. I like punks and their music-especially peace punk.punks are trying to live a more authentic life and that is a good thing in my book. D. Let punks live their life and don't judge them E. Most punks are young. F. I was a punk, but now I'd rather identify myself as being a human rather than being "punk" G. Punks can be judgmental.

  • i couldent agreee any more man

  • tl;dr

  • what gig is this from?

  • what a bunch of really ugly people...ha ha ha

  • you dont have to be beautiful to make good music

  • Whether you choose to believe it or not, punk is a subculture, and subcultures have their own fashions. I don't think there's anything wrong with with dressing like a punk if you're original with it, and you're not just in it for the look. If you don't want to dress a certain way, then don't, and who gives a fuck how anyone else dresses? People make big deals over SOMEONE ELSE'S clothing, over nothing.

  • ya man, people who insult others for wearing clothes they think r stupid are most likely insecure about themselves, and would never make a fashion statement

  • anyone that says there punks are a bunch of posers because they might look like one or say there one, but thats all they do nothing else really, but for the music thats cosidered punk rock ......its some damn good music. SKA is a little better though. thats just what i think haha.

  • i guess you arnt that punk or know a lot about it

    cuz punk is nothing about fashion so you cant look like a poser

  • hey bro I never said I was a punk and what I mean is if you say your a punk your not one cause your just trying to get some attention and the same with people who try to look like a hardcore punk cause those are the posers. Now for the ones who don't really work that hard to look like one or say there one to get attention and show there one with their actions I'm guessing are one thats all I mean.

  • strong, strong unaware.

  • ok, lets clear something up: crass NEVER said they were punk, they said they were INFLUENCED BY punk!

  • ....who fed you the wrong pills?

  • Crass is a punk band.

  • they have all the hallmarks of a punk band, i suppose they probably are a punk band, what i was trying to say was that they never TRIED to be a punk band.

  • kallicles is talking shit. Everebody who believe in anarchy can be punk.

  • Crass ist soo geil =)

  • el anarko punk, es más ke una musika punk, ES MENSAJE ANARKISTA no komo esas banditas de mierdas komo los sex pistols ke mataron el movimiento punk

  • Fuertes palabras, de alguien con videos de Blink 182 en los favoritos...

  • no voy a negar que me gustan algunas de esas bandas, pero jamás las he apoyado (en cuanto a compra de materiales y en general) y mucho menos considerarlas punk porke no lo son,,,,, a parte no son bandas como los sexpistols que jugaban de muy anarkos y muypunks, y no sabian nada de nada,,, mas que hacertodo por dinero

  • Di, sí le gustan esta bien, solo que me parece gracioso que las escuche y luego ande acusando a bandas de matar el punk

    Y los pistols ERAN punk, no todos los grupos de punk eran anarquistas, vea a the Clash, ni siquiera eran todos tan abiertamente politicos, buzzcocks y the Ramones, por ejemplo. Los pistols eran provocadores, esa era su cosa, Johnny no queria parecer anarquista para la gente que lo entendia, queria asustar a la sociedad conservadora inglesa.

  • al final el punk es a lo igual que la musica contenido no forma y muxas bandas se quedaron en lo segundo

    otras envejecieron dignamente y no se dejaron mansillar por el dinero ni la industria

    hoy en dia el punk no existe blink 182 , good charlotte , my chemical romance payasean con la estetica y la falsa postura para llenar sus arcas

    alla los parvulos imbeciles que los consideran clasicos .

  • punk was born n died with sex pistols is like saying TuPac was the only HipHopDude all around world and the others are just imitators

    sorry 4 the bad english ...

  • the pistols weren't the first punk band, the first band to be called punk were the stooges, in a review they were insulted by being called "punk rock", its where the phrase comes from.

  • Actually, you're wrong. The phrase "punk rock" was coined in the liner notes of a music compilation called "Nuggets". The Stooges, as many other punk predecessors such as the Mc5, The Fugs, The Holy Modal Rounders, were known as "freak out" bands, because they played raw electric folk. Punk was born from the Lower East Side of New York City, by anarchistic squatters. Punk just means inexperienced, or that you don't need any experience. Anyone can do it, and that's what makes it so remarkable.

  • feeding the five thousand was fuckin awesome.

  • OH MY GOD...... HOW CAN YOU SAY PUNK = SEX PISTOLS..... they were in the scene, but maybe the lesser influential band for the anarcho punk movement

  • anarchy discribes so mutch in one time , its a culture, life style, filosy and probably the biggest anti movement form today.

    "We work our hole life, we get money, we buy things, we get money horned, we build up laws to protect our property, we create Polices and militeries to do this fysicly correct, we get goverments that build the laws, and we, the people vote the goverments in to this fake "democraty".

  • You fail.

  • dude

    you don't know shit

  • like saying Apples are not fruits..

  • callate basura de seguro eres uno mas del monton de idiotas que no saben del punk tonto post punk de mierda

  • Nope Subhumans werent realy political, I did an interview with them on a tour back in -84 and they didnt really understand why I asked about politics. They were in it for the fun of it, according to themselfes anyway. Crass on the other hand, they really were into politics.

  • crass and sub humans were the more hardcore political elements rather than the more comercialy viable pistols conflict are a good band in this vein alsocheers fir posytins

  • Sex pistols are also punk. But saying that Crass isnt punk only men that you havent got the slightest idea what punk is!

  • the idea is: punk = sex pistols

    think whatever you want but it's like that

  • CRASS is the political fire of punk, Crass is the very defenition of anarcho-punk.

    Crass defined anarcho-punk, that is a fact and you can bitch about it as much as you want. Crass is among the most important bands in the history of punk!

  • sex pistols are real punk.. not these clowns..

  • fuck you talk to Johnny Rotten hed probly love these guys

  • you don't know anything about him.. he'd hate these morons.. and he's right

  • dude just listen to PiL (johnny's band if ur curious) and ull see the point hes political and would appreciate fellow anarchists

  • i know who pil are.. anyway anarchy in music starts with sex pistols.. these clowns are only bad copies and they also hate sex pistols.. so i dont think johnny loves them..

  • 'thisisnofunatall' do you really believe sex pistols was/is anarchists. yer one gullable fucker if you do!

    using the word anarchy to scare a group of old people and conservatives does not make you an anarchist. neither does being rich little cunts.

  • i know pistols weren't anarchists really..

    but neither they want to be.. but tell me genius.. what does the word anarchy mean for you?

  • Everyone has a fair chance and can live together without fighting and killing, living a natural existance, allowed to express themselves fully to get full extent of what they can do outside of a 9-5 job.

    no war and no bastards trying to gain off our backs.

  • beautiful words.. but we're not in a fairytale unfortunately.. anyway how does it connect with sex pistols??

  • i dont get yer?

  • and so who was your speech reported to??

  • again i dont really understand wot you mean , my 'speech' as you put it was aimed at you as you asked a question. The fairytale thing wot you said is a fuckin joke, how is it any more fairytale like than a capitalist society run on exploitation and greed?

    it was the sex pistols part i didnt get

  • it was a joke because things you said there are all impossible and unfleasible.. anyway i agree with you about capitalism.. even if i don't think sex pistols are connected with it

  • "CRASS is the political fire of punk" that is exact man.

    beyond uderstandable total chaos. this is FIRE

  • It's shit AND great!

  • peace punk dosnt mean your a hippie ignorent fucks

    it dosnt mean there wanting complete peace as tree huggers

    peace as war and shit

    there political

    "fight war not wars"

    god all you people do is bitch over the computer

  • Whats the name of the second song?

  • this band is more expiremental than punk

  • PEACEPEACEPEACE

  • HATEHATEHATE

  • "i am the god of punk. i decide who is a real punk or not.you all fall short and dont deserve the ever elevated title of punk. keep sewing patches to your clothes and yapping about lame political theories and one day i will allow you to be a real punk."(jaketapes75)

    No jaketapes you're just another shit bag that has nothing better to do than bash punk rock. So fuck off!

  • crass is punk

  • crass was the real deal. no ambition other than too speak their minds, you have to respect that.

  • a lot of these bands were local an played local to us at the time, who else saw crAss or the epileptics, eratics, newtown neurotics,shellshock, sods, etc etc all day festivals triad bishops stortford? remember siouxsie an the banshees she sang topless once before they made it big, also saw adam & the antz when he WAS a punk lol, eyes looking like he may of had some chemicals? all before he was a pirate lol,

  • i was 14 when crass were playing regular, in about 79, there was a small shop in hoe st walthamstow london E17 called small wonder records, this was originally the only place to get their records. i am not slating the punks of today but i was there 1st time, saw most bands of the era live. it was good fun..

  • hah. y dont you just fuck off mate. noone gets to decide who is punk. fuckin fascist

  • i am the god of punk. i decide who is a real punk or not.you all fall short and dont deserve the ever elevated title of punk. keep sewing patches to your clothes and yapping about lame political theories and one day i will allow you to be a real punk.

  • god of punk

    most punks i kno are athiest therefore you dont even exist

  • gods of hippies not punk...

  • a punk is another way of calling someone a little bitch

    the music punk is music and that only

    no one can be a punk unless they are callign them selves a bitch

    punk is a type of music

    'tis not a description

  • Shite song shite vid great band.

  • bloody slideshows...

  • e kuesto era il vero punk kon ideali!

  • ''They say we're trash...Well the name is Crass,not Clash...''

  • Crass was regimented in style, but they weren't closed minded and didn't give people a hard time for not being anarchist, they merely looked down on the cowardice of people who supported their message but refused to act on their beliefs. However, they were happy to entertain regardless of their audience's political leanings.

    But the Casualties suck. Any band that has the word "punk" or "punx" in the title of over half its songs is a joke.

    Stop singing about the forty and start drinking it.

  • yeah, crass is far, far away from my favorite band, but rather them than casualties. crass atleast have a clue what they sing about. however, the song "punk is dead", by crass led to idiocy for all future.first they did that song, then exploited made their punk's not dead, and from that on people fight on that instead of serious topics. Does anybody really care if it's dead or not?

  • You guys are all stupid talking smack on youtube

    Shut up

  • fuck the hippies

  • oi! punx are the best, fuck the rest

  • Punx are as bad as those who consider Green Day punk.

    Punx=No.

    Punks=Yes.

  • green day?? I don't listen that. skins and punx against hippies sluts like you. oi!-punx are the best fuck all the rest. (Understand like that?)

  • I don't listen to Greed fag either. You are a stupid poser, you write 'punx', its spelled 'punks'. And why fight hippies you stupid cunt, you obviously only listen to idiot bands like Casualties. I don't like crass that much either, they are closeminded and whines on others for not being anarchists, aeh you are too stupid you don't deserve my time cheers I listen to real hardcore and oi not casualties

  • have you ever met a fucking hippie?

    are you fuckin 12?

  • true but the casualties have the song punx unite and they sher as hell are punk

  • singing 'punx unite' don't make them punk...plus that song, if that's the one I'm thinking of, is just a complete ripoff of Sham 69's If the kids are united.

    But sure, they sure have some songs that are good.

  • Anyone who enjoys punk from the early days you tube Johnny Dole and the Scabs. 77 Sydney punk.

  • bullshit crass

  • right back at ya

  • q fea webada

  • OUR FOREfathers need to be worshiped. Our foreMOTHERS need CRASS.

  • kids aye..

  • What is the second song called like?

  • ANARCHOPUNK!

  • In the world all punks are united!

  • fuck to peace punks

  • fuck to peace punks!!

  • !!!!ANARCHO-PUNK-4-EVER!!!!

  • "If there was no government" there would still be arseholes. Human beings-funny bunch eh!?

  • There will always be some cock that wants to be in charge.

  • One fuckin life, live it!!!!!

  • much more relelvant than all these newer posts

  • This is what we need now, shame nobody took a blind bit then, got swept up wiv the rest.Fuck the law... Do what you want....

  • Its too late for the world to go into anarchy. The governments of the world have killed too many people for them to just say "lets just stop". I mean how are people whove lost their families ever going to forgive the bushes and blairs of the world? And also we would never all live in peace. Thers too many violent peoople who would love the idea of no government and no punishment for committing crime.

  • i love the lyrics of the band

    CRASS punk 4ever!!!

  • Anyway was that Elvis at, 2:40?

  • I don't know maybe they'd give it a shot. But somethings gotta change. Someones gotta change it though. That's the problem with this world... Or one of the many anyway. Okay I need to stop before I make a 2 page debate with my self..

  • Actually, world peace is possiable although far from now. There will always be wars but we can end some hopefully. Anarchism is way too radical for this world. It would be telling all governments to stop what they're doing and end it. It would be chaos with the people who rely and beleive strongly in the government. I think a global reform is much more realistic and we need it. Hopefully some one out there is listening...

  • therodoflove greenday and fall out boy hahahaha there not punk at all you need to do some reading and learn up on punk and if you dont thats fine stay with your MTV corprate music and stay naro minded cause your type of thought is why we have no fight twords the government anymore

  • therodoflove........just die ......your probely the only person iv said that to in the last like 2 years so please falow my advise

  • I'll die when you can spell

  • "I like real punk like Fall Out Boy, Greenday, NOFX not this noisy, dirty rubbish."

    What kind of a cunt are you?

    Fall out boy? what the fuck is that emo shit, Green day?? they are great but with they wish they invented stiff little fingers before jake burns did

    As for NOFX........... They are the one punk band worthy of the title punk band.

    You need to do a lot of research and also Growing up kiddo.

  • chya guys, crass invented punk, didn't you know that?

  • On a second listen I think he screaming for some soap and a sponge.............

  • Can anyone tell me what hes screaming before the song starts up? To me it sounds like "silverminer" but that doesnt make much sense.

  • Sounds like 'save the miners' which may tie in with the miners strikes in the early 80's.
