Were you aware of Ian Astbury's adoration of Crass and of his involvement in the anarcho-punk community? About Crass he says "They lived a communal lifestyle and their motto was anarchy, love, and peace... And after the show they would share whatever they had - food, clothes, everything - with the audience, then they'd move on. They were a big influence on me."
A part of a then growing scene/community called positive punk - one which shared many of the same values and beliefs so important to Crass and others, Southern Death Cult, Sex Gang Children, and more spearheaded a then new and vibrant music community. So yes, do check out Richard North's piece if you can.
