Anarcho-Punk: Music and Resistance in London 1977-1988 by David Insurrection is the distillation of three years work. It's the story of an oft overlooked scene. Anarcho-punk in the 1980s truly rocked the boat. Much more than music it set out to change the world and in a not insignificant way did just that. It inspired a generation of activists, artists and musicians to take up the fight for a better fairer world. They tore down the walls. The Sex Pistols may have opened the door but the Crass punks charged through it. This is their story. As we return to the embattled 1970s and 1980s David takes us on a journey where we visit some of the scene's most significant locations and hot spots, to places where change mattered and the spirit of revolt burned brightest.
