Christ - The Album (Crassical Collection)

CRASS, the punk legends who famously proclaimed "There is no authority but yourself," have gifted us with a reissue of their seminal album "Christ The Album" as part of the Crassical Collection. This collection may be old, but it’s still as hard-hitting as a pint of warm lager to the face at a dingy pub gig. In typical CRASS fashion, "Christ The Album" delivers a powerful punch of political outrage and DIY ethics. The band’s anarchic spirit seeps through every track, from the scathing critique of consumer culture in "Reality Asylum" to the rallying cry for resistance in "How Does It Feel." The album's abrasive sound may not be for everyone, but for those willing to embrace the chaos, it's a cathartic experience. The unpolished production and raw vocals add to the authenticity of the band’s message, making it feel like a call to arms rather than just another punk record. While some may dismiss CRASS as too radical or extreme, there’s no denying their impact on the punk scene and beyond. "Christ The Album" remains a timeless piece of musical protest that resonates just as strongly today as it did upon its original release. So grab a copy, crank up the volume, and let CRASS remind you that there is indeed no authority but yourself - and maybe a bit of CRASS for good measure.
