The second album from the legendary band Crass, Stations of the Crass, features a powerful blend of studio recordings and live performances, showcasing their distinctive sound and unwavering political stance. Released in 1979, this album remains relevant, both musically and politically, making it one of the best political punk rock albums of all time.
This vinyl edition includes three sides of studio material paired with 17 live tracks from their unforgettable performance at the Pied Bull in Islington. The guitars and bass intertwine seamlessly, creating a wall of sound, while the drums deliver a satirical military rhythm to their anti-establishment rants. Crass continues to inspire generations with their unapologetic approach to punk music.
