دانلود کتاب The Story of Crass

If you grew up on punk music in the 80s, you had an opinion of Crass. You either loved them or hated them, but very few were indifferent. For me, the band had a mystique that transcended their music and I have to say, I was more interested in the look and content of their records than the politics of the band.
The packaging and design of all the releases really kept me buying, not just Crass, but all bands on the Crass record label. Crass used design very effectively.
And this is featured in the book prominently (graphic designers take note). Just about every question I would have for the band is answered in the book. The use of art, the relationship with the press, the private lives of the members examined. I had to nick a whole star off the review though because there is no index not enough pictures. This book is the best thing I have read on Crass though, George Berger, though, mentions that his preferred Anarchist Band was the Poison Girls. I do not agree, but would certainly read a book about them. Whad'ya say George?
