Crass' politics/lyrics sometimes overshadow their sound, but if you need a place to justify what they can do musically, this is a fine spot. Steve Ignorant can snarl every bit as heedlessly as Sid Vicious. The bass player is clearly listening to a shitload of reggae. And although there's a high quotient of militaristic drum rolls, when Joy de Vivre steps up to the mic to make some z-grade pun about Margaret Thatcher, she's as fierce as anything on a Slits record.
