#2694 Crass - The Feeding of the Five Thousand

Do They Owe Us a Living? is one of the greatest punk songs of all time. It's as angry and hooky and blunt and recklessly tight as anything out there, branding you with its message in a minute twenty.

And this is one of the great art punk albums, end to end. Harrowing, fearless, slashed with flashes of noise and screed, dropping to seconds of silence in the flash of an A-bomb, but packed with hooky moments and thrilling production. It's as unflinchingly furious and nasty as a totally enjoyable album can be. An unequivocal, bracing classic 4.5/5
