Crass remasters 'Best Before 1984'
Crass has remastered their compilation Best Before 1984, which rounds up Crass singles and a few other stray tracks. The release appears to be a continuation of
The Crassical Collection
. Right now, only a digital version is available, and for the time being, the band is giving it away for free./ Check it out right here.
Crass co-founder, producer, and drummer Penny Rimbaud stated: "“Crass was then and this now, but the lyrics remain tragically relevant, indeed, Crass were often so prophetic that it’s only now that their warnings might make sense to those who in the day preferred to keep their heads firmly buried in the sand. ‘Global warning? Nah, let’s go down the lido.’ Where the Pistols and The Clash now sit comfortable in the backlit annuls (or is that anus?) of rock’n’roll history, Crass continue to contribute to the ever-growing voice of global dissent.“"
