{"product_id":"crass-best-before-1984-crassical-collection","title":"Crass - Best Before 1984 (Crassical Collection)","description":"\u003cp\u003eCrass were an English art collective and punk rock band formed in 1977 who promoted anarchism as a political ideology, a way of life and a resistance movement. Crass popularised the anarcho-punk movement of the punk subculture, advocating direct action, animal rights, feminism, anti-fascism, and environmentalism. The band used and advocated a DIY ethic approach to its albums, sound collages, leaflets, and films.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePainstakingly remastered and redesigned over recent years by Penny Rimbaud and Gee Vaucher, the Crassical Collections are a radical reappraisal of the Crass catalogue. The message remains the same, but with new visuals, improved sound and the added clarity of hindsight.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCrass as it was in the beginning, but with all the power of now.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBest Before 1984, number seven, is the one that almost got away. This brand new and final Crassical Collection is a deluxe double CD package re-mastered by Alex Gordon and Penny Rimbaud at Abbey Road Studios in 2018. Contains the original album plus a further album's worth of related material; good, bad and indifferent.
