FLUX OF PINK INDIANS / The Fucking Cunts Treat Us Like Pricks (1984)

The title and art are both clearly meant to offend, but not in a juvenile way. It's a direct, if obtuse, method of raising awareness for one of the themes explored on the album: the kind of abuse that goes on behind closed doors. It's also a noisy, feedback-infused, hate-filled attack on the kind of society that allows such activity to happen. When I say 'noisy,' I mean it. Even fans of traditional anarcho-punk may find the tumultuous compositions challenging or even deplorable.

FLUX OF PINK INDIANS / Strive to Survive Causing Least Suffering Possible (1983)

If you like CRASS, then it's almost certain you'll feel similarly about Hertfordshire's Flux of Pink Indians, because they belt out the same kind of British anarcho/punk that's sadly dead these days. It's pissed-off, anti-establishment, rousing and raw emotion in the language of music. That's all you really need to know.
The reissue, with a different cover, added an earlier E.P. 1981's Neu Smell.
