  • Anarchy is freedom.

    socialism, marxism, collectivism is all bullshit and is not freedom.

  • Where in the fuck do you get "racist and fascist" from anarchist? Lots of labels being tossed around; for all the gums flapping about what they "know",seems like not fuck one of you understood the song, or even tried to.

  • @AncientChildVII i believe the message is divide and conquer

  • si no buscas una solucion tu eres parte del problema!!! CRASS

  • would not suprise me, if this lot now have banking jobs in the city. Anarchy! what a joke.

  • @ronpx200e i believe penny is still running the collective thing. I'm not quite sure.

  • There's so much more to tuning than just Crass but it was a good idea. If they get paid a big wad to play then who cares. I wouldn't pay for it unless it was a new album and really interesting Pop. For them to be POST PUNK now makes no sense.

  • Alot of their guitar riffs are dull now. Not to be rude, but it's sort of time for them to do something new.

  • Utimately, the whole point of Crass was to create a ghetto Johannesburg sound that frightened all races. They really were sort of sponsored by Black people in EMI.

  • First of all, religion can definitely lead to revolution. There are many cases of passive resistance disturbing a system so much that it crumbles. Also, if you really are Anarchist, that is the most cowardly way to view politics and for the most part, I thought Crass was mocking Capitalism in this tune. The band mocked everything Anarchist and was Capitalist, Socialist, and Communist. They were, for the most part, Republican and religious, if you ask me. Also, Crass are highly Conservative.

  • It's so obvious CRASS were POP PUNK. just look at how much the band wanted to be like the STONES and BEATLES.

  • @mediattackrecords they were too into f*cking and partying to really be a POP band. Their new stuff is mostly POST PUNK.

  • @mediattackrecords i cant believe theyre REPUBLICANS but i guess they are. Its the oddest thing I've ever heard that a POP PUNK band would not care to try and be profitable. They're so Conservative it's hardly what I consider to be Pop anymore.

  • @mediattackrecords I'm a Liberal Democrat. I highly doubt Crass is Anarchist. That would be racist and fascist if they are. You should ask them if they really agree with cockney Republican politics before you go with it. They'll most likely say it's a revolutionary uprising. If you really agree with how revolutionaries set up people like Lennon and Warhol or that PUNK has the heroic values you need in life then you must be nuts about fascism. I think CRASS makes a few good points. See above.

  • Crass are nazis. I read a lot of stupid and misinformed comments, but you really dont know what are you talking abaut. Stop embarising yourself, you show complete lack of knowladge.

    Crass are nazis? HA-HA.

    I apologise for my english.

  • It's hard to say if I like this song because first of all I really love the clash despite how they kind if sold out. And I don't really grasp how being neither left nor right Wing and just being an anarchist will solve anything. Nut I agree with most of their views... Despite them being lame hippies

  • @samtron75v1 they're not hippies, they critisize hippies. being a pacifist doesnt make you a hippy or passive

  • @Misikuta i know that perfectly well. I was just joking around because they are ex-hippies.

  • @Misikuta What? Theyre about as hippy as it gets. Theyre POP PUNKS, not quite POST PUNK and not quite PUNK.

  • @samtron75v1 I like the Clash also. They really didn't sell out. From what I hear the concerts were a flop with noone paying to get in. Safe European Home is all about how they most likely came from a middle to lower class ghetto also.

  • i sleep to this album on repeat<3

  • fuck the crass thar a nazi punk band i kick nazi punks asses

    

  • @chrisphy2 You're a fucking dickhead.

  • @slumpytube CRASS ripped off 70's PROTO PUNK cockney Republican vocals. It's nothing new, you moron.

  • @mediattackrecords For someone who wishes to get his pointless little "I was there, I know better" bullshit across, you have a splendid way of annoying people and defeating the object.

    Oh, and go fuck yourself you pompous know-fuckall prick...have a nice day...

  • @chrisphy2 eeee what ? crass a nazi band... wtff are yu talking about ? and ..hemm..George Bush is an anarcho-punk yeah yeahhh XD

  • @chaospunx11 Crass are nothing but obnoxious.

  • rockin makin gme feel sicvk n shity

  • Cool

  • chaos punks you worthless cunts!!!

  • No one's joining in against fascism, since capitalism has started pretending to be all about the people with shit like xfactor and 'vote for me tv' and 'we're here for you' news papers and 'this movie's about how shit us capitalists are' movies and 'look i'm making meat eating ethical' jamie olivers. Desensitising us to war and murder is happening, over population isn't even being thought about. Stay Sensitive people. Don't let anyone blunt your edges.

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

  • Exactly!..all most stupid cunts can think about is how much harder they are than everyone else...lose the fucking shit ego! 'punks' that only worry about whos tougher or whos 'still punk' are cunts, hows that any different from being a snobby prep douche..hehe, ignorant fuckers...when really unity for a cause, like freedom or what have you, should unit people from all damn walks of life!!! i say goddamnit...I am done ranting : p

  • See Crass women Eve Libertine & Gee Vaucher interview & Music in She's a Punk Rocker U.K

  • @OscarTheOptimist: I know. I never said Steve Ignorant conformed to anything. Really, I was just adding some levity to the discussion.

  • Anarchy and free-dumb = opposites

  • kamatayan para sa mga pasista

  • Seeing a "Crass Mix" brought to you by YouTube breaks my heart..

  • think for your self.....

  • "The name is Crass not Clash"

  • I mean 'boring'.

  • @pirateXsatellite Eh, politics are dirty too mate.

  • Dirty fucking politics that'll get us all shot

  • WHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO­! (by the way.)

  • Check out BURNT CROSS if you like Crass style music

  • love the sentiment, but sayin become an anarchy is the way farward is just another rule,, one fuckin ruler for another imo, sayin that the tunes are no bad,,,,

  • Excellent, brings back happy happy memorys of my youth......

    cheers

    Andy

  • really, really nice. i like this a lot.

  • my god they're awful - it's so true... thank god they have ideology to back them up!

  • @antigen4 thye are art school kids not punk rockers

  • @alvicious  haha... whachoo talkin' about....?? Where do you think punk rock was born...? Nearly ALL 'punk' bands came out of art schools. Sex Pistols (through mclaren), the Clash, the Buzzcocks, even the relevant american ones like the DKs - you name it...

  • @antigen4 yeah i guess you are right. i'm just bitter because i'm working class and not some snob with white liberal guilt.

  • @alvicious bahhh...!! unfortunately in the USA you can't really bring up the education card without bringing money into it. In england lots of people go into university because it's free... beats the HELL out of working!!! I'm from canada myself so grew up somewhere between the two...

  • @antigen4 LOL Canada!

  • @antigen4 It's not free to go to Uni in England- you get a loan but you have to pay it back.

  • No one ever made me listen to punk. I just chose to listen one day, but I don't agree with everything everything they say. Its just another form of funk. On its way to progress we had grown, but little white man needs to reap the seeds it has grown. Punk music was just an outcry for change, but poor old white man needs to re-arrange.

  • @XyPunk77 shut up

  • Political hippie punk coffee house bullshit crass

  • @LethalDosageInc409 Stick to your adhd favourites

    What have you got to do with punk ?

    laughable

  • @LethalDosageInc409

    fuck off twat. what wank are you into?

  • @LethalDosageInc409

    'neat little labels to keep us all apart.' You ain't listening pal.

  • Where's the political awakening in todays punk song? Like the lyrics!

  • @antifascistmilitant They're probably too preoccupied with Hot Topic.People fuck up everything.

  • Whats the best way to find mp3iiiiify to download this mp3? Someone told me to google mp3iiiiify.

  • This is a fantastic and still very relevant song about the patronising self-righteousness fascism of the left, like the modern day SWP/UAF/etc.

  • There is not authority but myself ? GD F ,,,really ? :O) jk

  • @SpringChatty How old are you ? :)

  • @kiribula

    old enuff. :O) What about you ?

  • from the title people assume this is a racist song...these people should listen to the fucking song and hear its message before they comment

  • BNP 2010[X]

  • anti-swa biznitch. white power beliefs will be non-existent in the future when everyone is mixed and there is no "pure race bs" thank god for evolution!!

  • What's that song Crass did that went "do they owe us a liveing?" How about "do they owe us health care?" Of course they fucking do!

  • @dogma264 SHOT BRAINCELLS YAY!!! ;P

  • Death to Nazis

  • what youve just said makes it clear you didnt listen to anything in this song

  • @ZogSoldier Vicious mindless violence that offers nothing new.

  • @ZogSoldier Why does this have so many thumbs up when the song is against this kind of statement?

  • @ultimatedude this song has different messages to different people. That is the amazing thing about music. Crass is an anti nazi band after all.

  • @tommytowne I think they are anti racist, they are anti nazi because they hate thier ideas, but do they think all nazi people should die? as they say, Vicious mindless violence that offers nothing new, Left wing violence right wing violence all seems much the same. Meaning, Killing nazis wont change anything the same way killing jews is. It doesnt mean every nazi wants to murder jews, so why do it back? even so, we are men, not animals.

  • @tommytowne Post too long. Its the cycle of violence, man started fighting since the start of time, has it ever resolved anything? no, because we are still doing it. But thats just my opinion

  • @ultimatedude I never said anything about killing nazis and yes we are animals, not men. We are humans. I am not advocating violence just pointing out that crass is a legendary anti nazi band. My point is that the message this song gave you is not the same message for others.

  • @ZogSoldier You missed the point of this song.

  • @WMUnited people are fools. all these "crass" fans are just PC PIG police. fuckem'

  • @ZogSoldier And commies.

  • @ZogSoldier

    Whats a fucking Nazi ?? Do you even know ???

  • @ZogSoldier not death. change to nazis.

  • "funny" thing is, real nationalsocialists -- those above the label, who were above the left/right dichotomy from day one -- are in line with crass, and technically blazed a similar trail sixty odd years ago. nevermind divisive labels. they were a continuum of the volkisch rebels and original ecologists. scrap your system history. wwII "history" begs revision. buddhists, muslims, heathens, christians, atheists, and even jews (a minority) fought under the swastika. shoah business = $. who profits?

  • Its only bands like this and Earth Culture that kick ass these days!!!!

  • personally, ive given up caring about the rulers and how id should conform to their rules. also to anarcists and their views.

    Just feel tired now. look after myself and my immediate fmily and friends.

  • @stevocarton LOL, it's called "getting old"! Welcome to the club! We were listening to this stuff over 30 years ago. Now the major concerns are eating enough roughage, remembering to take the high blood pressure pill, always urinating right before bedtime to cut down on late-night trips to the bathroom, and making sure the rent/mortgage is paid so you have a roof. Sad as it is, in the end it is Bob Dylan's words that apply more than Steve Ignorant's..."You're gonna have to serve somebody".

  • when i first saw this i thought i agreed and for a long time i did but not anymore, not that i think the word nigger means much. but i mean im bi and i would smash someones brains out if they called me fag. and yeah the antiracist stuff does actually change things. but i know what they mean by liberal garbage. its just false humanism. lol but im a communist anarchist so lol much for marx.

  • fag

  • so true

  • I like the word TOSSERS. Very cool!

  • amen

  • umm.. why cant anarchist be on utube?? being Punk is not just about rebel, is about passion for the music... and youtube got tons of good punk music dude

  • I bought all their albums in my youth. They did have some good points but i can't honsetly say that i believe anarchy would work in the real world

  • sell your records !

  • Ok then let me quote someone whom i respect alot. Jello Biafra."How many liberators want to be dicatotors, EVERY theory has it holes when real life sets in! How very true EVERY THEORY! YOU sound like a muslim fundamentalist. I hope i didn't upset you little boy

  • BY the way left wing violence is way better than right wing violence. I would defnitely stand up to one of those russian skinheads who was beating up someone innocent. NAZI PUNKS FUCK OFF!!

  • how bout the collectives durning the spanish civil war???

  • i have never heard about the collectives in the spanish war

  • yeah it can happen just take a look around you when TRUE anarchist do something every one stops and looks the e.z.l.n. the greek riots it can happen but not in our life time all we can do is pave the road for our sons and grandsons years from now

  • it will work better than this shit....

  • true true true all is true, but what I get from the meaning of "Anarchy" is "Be yourself, dont let any of does bitches think they are better than you, and do what you want to do without any limits but always respecting the others"

  • That sounds like the perfect philosophy to me and something i subscribe to. thanks for your message

  • crass's words are true today as they were back them.we are all still niggers to the rulers of this land

  • faites chier merde, on s'en tape de vos conneries,du blabla tout ça,et ça change quoi au final? nada,nicht,nothing,alors vos blabla,j'en ai rien à cirer,ça fait tourner la machine,un produit rien qu'un produit ,voila ce que vous êtes,recyclables en plus ,alors un conseil,faites pas chier et allez au bistrol du coin (au coffee shop pour les chanceus) et enfilez vous une bonne bibine bien fraiche (un bon spliff pour les chaceux) mais de grace ,fermez-la!

  • They were certainly not fascistic in their politics. Indeed, they allowed people of any political 'faith' into their gigs. They were, therefore, hated by left & right.

  • Crass is the realy PunkRock

  • "if you care to take a closer look at the way things REALLY stand...you'd see we're all just niggers to the rulers of this land."

    im gettin that tattooed on me for sure

  • Anyone else watch this? Penny is chilling naked in the Dial House garden for about 10 minutes total. Way to be a rebel! XD

  • haha..good call !!!

  • Damn, I had to watch an ad before I could see the video.

    An ad before a Crass song, that sucks lol.

  • the "minimovies" thingie is not an ad maybe youre mistaken..?

  • @Patricknows  LOL!

  • @Patricknows

    That's who is distributing the piece.

    Most anyone who invests themselves to making documentaries wouldn't call it a money making enterprise. I think this online venue rather than $50 dvds is no exception when it makes it accessible to everyone.

  • fuckin make one yerself !!!!

  • where could i get a giant crass flag like the ones i allways see pictures of?

  • hey dasgemuse they made them... make one yourself... just need some dye and sheets...

  • I think the last time people experienced true freedom and anarchy (or at least the closest thing to it) was back in those Wild West days. just driftin all across the land and doin whatever. Of course there were a lot of killing and shit though, but i still find it interesting.

  • Just a reminder: since a couple of weeks, you can watch the full documentary at the Minimovies website. If you enjoyed this trailer, be sure to see it!

  • @SubmarineChannel can you link me please.

  • Comment removed

  • Ha ha ha these comments, divisive infighting! "Dirty little labels to keep us all apart!"

    United we are so much larger than our media and governments, but we'll never realize it, we just keep on playing their game and pointing the finger at eachother. Sad but amusing.

  • Plenty of people are slaves to media and religion. And it's a plague that crosses the boundaries of countries, race, and class. The fact that anyone is pointing fingers and saying "your country this" and "my country that" as comments on a Crass video is sad.

  • love this song listen to it at lest 1nce every day

  • And I hadn't intended to insult Americans at all if it wasn't for timothyxmcveigh insulting my country. Yes, you are pretty much slaves to the media and the dillusion that is God.

  • stop hating so much and accept people for there differences its not like there harming any other but themselves...yeah its true 99.9% percent of the world (not just america) are mental slaves and dont even know it with there materialism religion and what not but please dont complain about it it makes you look silly why do you even care so much? whats the point of caring for things you dislike?

    just live your life being happy and having fun and stop hating people..even stupid people are nice.

  • Like I said before comments such as mine would not have been made if timothyxmcveigh hadn't insulted my country and its people. I did the same, I don't see why you are aiming your attention at me. And I never said that there wern't other people in the world who blindly follow the media I just said that they're mostly Americans. Have I clarified it enough for you?

  • If you read my previous comments I mentioned that.

  • I never stated that all Americans are fat and dumb. I said that the vast majority of the population are, so you are the ignorant one friend. Yes you do have some very intellegent and athletic people (I have yet to meet one) but you do. All I'm saying is that the large majority of the populous are EXTREMLEY un-educated in the international affairs of other countries (You might say that they don't care however you are all so keen to voice your opinion on a subject you know so little about).

  • Lol, chill out, I thought we were on the same side here....

  • You said 100%, that's ALL! And the majority of Americans are uninformed because the media keeps them that way! You must understand American culture to understand Americans! If anything you should want to HELP inform them than to just insult every one of them!

  • Following the media? I've seen it firsthand an American woman came into one of my friends practices for a check-up and she said that she though the UK was by Africa until she came. Furthermore the amount of idiots and fat people you have in your country is un-believable, I'll admit every country has their fair share but your country takes the biscuit.

  • America is so plastic

  • And Americas 100%Fat and 100% Idiotic. You're all followers of the media and take little to no notice of whats happening in the world. Don't expect to insult a country without one being hurled back at you.

  • lol now who's following the media making stereotypes like that.

  • And you are quite ignorant for stating that we are ALL fat and idiotic. I am of average weight and keep myself informed on a daily basis, and not only through standard media, obviously...I'm watching a fucking Crass video!

  • oi there, anyone can help me set connections with Crass or Dial house?

  • Totally correct. Their anti-violence message was a bit naive. Antifas don't object to violence - but this must be carried out in RESISTANCE only. This tactic is consistent with anarchism. Contrast this to the Searchlight/UAF con merchants. But I think Steve was having more of a pop at the ANL - who like UAF and STW today, were SWP controlled.

  • Isn't that one of the reasons they broke up? Because of conflict between their pacifism and their feeling that pacifism was outdated (i.e. "youre already dead")... I dont know...Anyways, Murray Rothbard always said the only just war us Americans ever fought was the revolutionary war because it was directly in a resistance for freedom. I know left and right anarchists don't agree on a lot, but I think the idea that violence should only be for defense is almost universal.

  • Fair points. Though I would argue that the majority of anarchists reject this label of 'left anarchists' and 'right anarchists'. Anarchism is about abolishing left and right - for these are defined by competing claims of power, rather than to abolish power itself.

  • You're right. I consider myself an individualist anarchist. I believe in all the cliche ancap ideas etc. It kind of baffles me when people call it "right anarchism". I had democrat parents and despise the right for most of their ideologies. Besides that ancap is much closer to classical liberalism than it is to modern or classical conservatism.

  • Absolutely correct. Even a politician with the best of intentions cannot succeed. The corporates and their like pull the strings. We have to undermine the bastards by refusing to participate by as much as we possibly can.

  • Steve says that he regrets singing, left wing, right wing, you can stuff the lot, as they ended up with Thatcher. He feels it was a mistake to encourage people not to vote. I reckon that ideal was relevant, is relevant and will always be so. Left, right, it does not matter. Why should we, the majority, put up with the stupidities of the Liberal/ Labor, Republican/ Democrat, Tory /Socialist dichotomies, whose efforts are to defeat each other, not to assist all people? Vote them all out!

  • But isn't that strange thinking on Steve's part? Because on the flip side, you could argue Labour governments are passively accepted like some electoral placebo effect. Tories, through their unapologetic arrogance, always show power for what it is. Once she was in, you couldnt be neutral. You either loved Maggie, or wished for her BBQd head on a plate. Before the Falklands, she was toasted. Then they bought her lies, and state violence now had the full force of voters behind it

  • Yes, I reckon it is a strange conclusion by Steve. I hear where he is coming from but the ethic left/right stuff the fucking lot was the correct way to see it no matter who is in power. Either side has got some product to sell and some reason to keep centralised control of our lives. Left or right maintain contempt towards us. They disrespect us and our potential, so stuff em. The trick is to stop voting for them by not buying the products. Sometimes that can take a lifetime to reach that point.

  • It feels like a re-run of 1979. A Labour government that has got us up to our eyeballs in debt - through a mixture of bailing out capitalism's perrenial failures and funding its pet social engineering projects. And a Tory opposition that has dropped Cameron's fake Guardian-appeasing green liberal bullshit, and revealed its true authoritarian Thatcherite colours. Even the 'radical' options, like the Greens - want us to pay to clear up capitalism's shit.

  • Well said, it's sound like the same old set up.

    I watched the above doco on minimovies last night. Good to get an insight into Crass and Dial. As a young punk rocker it was always hard to get my head around how to divorce myself from the system but Rimbaud had already done a good job of doing that. It takes a good shift in thinking. Here in Oz we have permaculture but it has taken me 30 years to embrace it! I reckon I must be slow witted!

  • this is great!

  • That bassline is awesome!

  • Superb!

  • bear in mind when this was ; before anyone starts waffling on about immortal tech or michael franti

  • Next week, the full documentary 'Crass: There's no authority but yourself' will finally be posted on the Minimovies website. If you enjoyed this trailer, be sure to see it!
