Was this ever a Slayer shirt, or did someone at Top Shop just google 'Skull'

What film was that? I'd quite like to see it, although in my head it features lots of upper middle class boys with dirty dreadlocks sitting around on the floor in puddles of zeppelin cider pilling to high heaven while trying to talk about the merits of bumbags and courier bikes. Did Crass ever make ANY merch? People tell me they didn't, but I've seen people wearing Crass shirts.

Even I am too young to have seen Crass - but I knew loads of people when I was a teen in the late 80s who were about in the Crass period and none of them were 90s style Crustafarians who came with bands like Citizen Fish - the ones I knew were relatively lower middle class old punks or hippyish squatter types. 

Yeah, Crass seemed to be more of a lifestyle than a band.  Definitely latterday hippies, in their own way.  And there were lots of T-shirts (maybe not "official" ones, I don't know), lots of logos painted on jackets.  But I can't remember any of my "punk" acquaintances actually listening to them.

I think they are probably one of my favourite bands  - not sure about the lifestyle though  :P

i don't have a problem with Crass, just a certain minority of crust punks. haha.

Just the impression I formed, very much as an "outsider".  :P

I did hear some of their music at the time, but can't remember much about it to be honest.  I know I didn't like it, but maybe I'd appreciate it more now?

Phil - I doubt it, unless you are into anarco-punk it is unrepentantly bad - but I guess I wouldn't like the stuff you liked in 1987 (especially hair metal - although I confess that somehow I own Twisted Sister's first album and kind of got it when I last listened to it).  

[Philly Q]

You're probably right.  And I still like (most of) the stuff I liked in 1987.... and the stuff I liked in 1977, for that matter.
