Crass ORIG UK 2ND Press LP Feeding of the 5000 EX ’78 Small Wonder Hardcore Punk
Crass
The feeding of the five thousand
Original UK 2ND Press LP released in 1978 on Small Wonder Records Records. Cat: WEENY2. Comes with booklet with 6 crossed out on front and 5 written next to it. Booklet is in Excellent condition.
Perhaps the most uncompromising early British punk record, though a long way from the best. This is far more interesting for its form than its content; super-brief, incoherent rants over pummeling drums and incomprehensible vocals were made into a hardcore cliché by the early '80s, but were impossibly radical and noisy in 1978. If you're at all left-of-center, you can find a good deal to sympathize with in the lyrics, addressing class warfare, social hypocrisy, organized religion, and punk rock itself with serious venom. It's not without humor at times, either, as on the famous chorus, "Do they owe us a living? Of course they f*cking do!" (A lyric sheet, always an essential item for Crass releases, is provided.) But the melodic and textural qualities of the record, not to mention the throat-full-of-vomit vocals, are so unrelentingly harsh and monotonous that it's difficult to imagine anybody playing this for pleasure.
Tracks: Asylum/ Do they owe us a living?/ End result/ They’ve got a bomb/ Punk is dead/ Reject of society/ General bacardi/ banned from the Roxy/ G’s song/ Fight war, not wars/ Women/ Securicor/ Sucks/ You pay/ Angels/ What a shame/ So what/ Well?..do they?
There are a few light spindle marks on labels. Record has some light scuff marks that cause a few light crackles throughout and is in Excellent condition. Cover has light ring wear and is in Excellent condition.
