Anybody like these guys? The only song I ever knew by them was that Tubthumping song that was a big hit several years back, and I was not a fan. A
friend sent me a bunch of their albums and they're pretty damn good. They have an album named Anarchy that I've been listening to like crazy for the
last week. It's really damn good. Their oldest stuffis more punk, but over the years they've blended a lot of musical styles together and made it
sound really good.

wasnt some of them from the SUBHUMANS or something?
Each aspect of the soul has it's own part to play, but the ideal is harmonious agreement with reason and control.

I never gave them a chance because of that terrible song that was played on the radio.

They were around for years and years before the "hit." They were part of the Crass collective who were always more on the "pop side." I'm under the
impression they gave a good amount of the proceeds from that to causes they supported.
And as far as "pop"/"dance" radio hits, I think it's a pretty excellent song.

I didn't like the hit single, but the other stuff I've listened to has been damn good.

...Lyrically it sounds like 90% of Hardcore songs to me. Musicaly, there are definitely worse songs on the radio.

Saw them way back before the hit song came out and it was the biggest hippie nonsense I've ever seen. There were barefoot women in flowing dresses
twirling around through the crowd handing out flowers. The music was terrible and the attitude was beyond obnoxious. On the other hand, had the
tubthumping song not been ridiculously overplayed, I might have thought it was halfway decent for the pop type thing it was...

Crassholes.
Well, its this place where nobody works, and the pigs don\'t give you any shit. Everyone smokes weed and gets drunk all day. Its a place where
cunts like me and you can truly take it easy and relax. Know what I mean?
