Talk:The Feeding of the 5000

How do you like that when I wrote "The Feeding of the 5000 is the first album by Crass, released in 1978 after the demos in 1976 and form in 1977 in the UK. Some songs off of this album have Parental Advisory and Explicit Lyrics and Content of guitar solo sounding like David Bowie post 1972 or The Ramones post 1976". -Michael

Well, I for one didn't like it too much. Aside from being two run-on sentences full of unrelated facts, it doesn't make logical sense by my reading. How could "guitar solos" earn an "Explicit Lyrics and Content" label? After reading the above, I can't even tell iff the album itself earned a warning label. And "Parental Advisory" stickers didn't even come into existence until the 1990s, AFAIK. Tuf-Kat

<exasperated sigh> 'Feeding' definately DID NOT have Parental advisory stickers on the cover. It DID NOT have 'explicit lyrics & content' labels. As TUF KAT says, these didn't even exist until some years after 1978. What's more, it has NOT got any guitar solos on it, it DOESN'T sound like David Bowie in 1972 or any other year. Arguably there are vague similarities with the sound of the early ramones, although Crass' sound is much more complex than the ramones, and a comparison with them would be highly misleading. Have you ever heard anything by Crass BTW Micheal? quercus robur 09:09 Mar 14, 2003 (UTC)
