Punk pioneers Crass continue their vinyl reissue series, repressing their limited releases of adjacent artists through Crass Records, in association with One Little Independent Records. Following records from Honey Bane and Jane Gregory in March, reissues from Captain Sensible and Omega Tribe will be released on August 26th.
The series, including over twenty bands and solo artists recorded at the legendary Southern Studios and produced by Penny Rimbaud, continues with two historic pieces of the Crass Records catalogue; anarcho-punk outfit Omega Tribeās debut release āAngry Songsā, and cult icon Captain Sensibleās āThis is Your Captain Speakingā. The anti-establishment themes explored by both artists remains as pertinent today as they were upon their release over forty years ago.
āThis Is Your Captain Speakingā by Captain Sensible (a founding member of punk rock legends The Damned) mixes pure punk audaciousness with hints of psychedelia and goth as well as choral music, to create something undeniably āCaptainā. The EP features vocal contributions from the band, Dolly Mixture and engineer John Loder's young daughter Tash. Penny Rimbaud, who wrote the lyrics for the first track, āWhat D'Ya Giveā, features on drums throughout. Tongue-in-cheek and also raw, the EP represents a pivotal moment when two of punkās original trailblazers joined forces.
Tracklist:
1. (What D'Ya Give) The Man Who's Gotten Everything?Ā
2. Oursouls to You
3. The Russians Are Coming
