A perfect record.
"So, besides the Portastudio early on, William bought a Gretsch from a friend who sold it behind his dad’s back for £20 and then a Shin-ei fuzz pedal for a tenner from another friend, and here we all are still talking about this debut album 40 years later."

Long live CRASS!

‘We never had much fun – we were angry’: Eve Libertine on life with anarcho-punk pioneers Crass
Accused of obscenity and sued by police and Tory MPs, Libertine outraged the establishment as part of Crass. Now she’s back – and she hasn’t mellowed with age

My latest is a love letter to Chicago. "I see you stumbling through the stubborn, awkward rhythm of showing up, again and again. I see you fighting alongside people who sometimes frustrate and confuse you, and defending neighbors you may have never met, because you know they’re all your people."
In Chicago, We Run Toward Danger Together
"Faced with unrelenting state violence, Chicagoans have refused to be cowed," says Mariame Kaba.
