Never saw CRASS but I did see Conflict in their heyday. Sort of similar though I know exactly what you mean about the multi-media aspect of CRASS. Twenty years ago and they're releasing albums in massive fold out poster sleeves for 99pence. The posters are full of cleverly presented propaganda built around actual facts (usually the governments own) and then live, they're a full on multimedia experience with music, slide shows, films, completely decorating the halls they played in. Oh and they lived in a commune, ran their own record label and published their own books. <br><br>I too remember that time around the Falklands War and the Miner's Strike. CRASS seemed to be omnipresent. <br><br><!--EZCODE AUTOLINK START--><a href="http://www.southern.com/southern/band/CRASS/">www.southern.com/southern/band/CRASS/</a><!--EZCODE AUTOLINK END--><br><br>I've said it before here: Everyone on ths board needs to know at least a little about CRASS. Amazing people. <p></p><i></i>
