ANARCHO PUNK CD SERIES VOL 2 ANTI-STATE OUT NOW
'Anti-State (Anarcho-Punk Compilation Vol. 2)'
21 track CD only: 68 minutes: Label: Overground Records Cat. No. OVER 105VP
CD
'Anti-State' is the second release in Overground Record's Anarcho-Punk
series that is chronicling and serving as the definitive guide to the 1980's
Anarcho-Punk scene.
'Anti-State' has been pain-stakingly compiled from over 1000 recordings from
vinyl, demo cassettes, unreleased studio recordings and live gigs from the
mid 1980's before settling on 21 tracks, 12 of which are previously
unreleased.
The sleeve notes by Sean McGhee recall the history of the scene that was
pitched in direct conflict with the Thatcher government and how the State
directed their henchmen the Police to enforce their rule. This was the era
of the miners' strike, inner-city riots, CND, the Cold War and war in
Northern Ireland. The Anarcho-Punk scene proved to be a rallying call for
many disillusioned punks and their protestations would prove to be a
constant thorn in the side of the establishment.
The series is already being hailed by reviewers and listeners alike as the
most important punk re-issue series for years. This series is an aural
historical document of an integral, important and hugely influential part of
UK punk scene that has, until now, been largely written out of punk history.
The CD includes previously unreleased versions by some of the better known
bands from the scene such as Flux of Pink Indians, Subhumans, and Amebix
plus rare recordings by Chumbawamba, Blyth Power, The Mob, Poison Girls and
Toxik Ephex as well as some lesser known, but none-the-less interesting
bands Toxic Ephex, Decadence Within and Polemic.
The 24-page accompanying booklet contains detailed biographies and many
unseen photos on each band.
'Anti-State' captures the anger of an era when the youth were in direct
conflict with the establishment. The sound is energetic and often angry and
typically delivered with an intensity lacking today. 'Anti-State' is a
soundtrack of those times.

A TOUCH OF HYSTERIA - The Rulers/ URBAN DECAY - Severalls/ THE MOB – Gates of Hell/ FLUX OF PINK INDIANS - Progress/ BLYTH POWER - Hurling Time/ AMEBIX - Axeman/ SUBHUMANS - So Much Money/ FAMOUS IMPOSTERS – Fighting Again/ POISON GIRLS - Bully Boys/ DECADENT FEW - Lowlife/ TOXIC WASTE - Traditionally Yours/ TOXIK EPHEX - Nothings Permissive/ DISRUPTERS - Stonehenge/ DECADENCE WITHIN - A Breath of Fresh Air/ NO DEFENCES – Willing Cripples/ CHUMBAWAMBA - Revolution/ CIVILISED SOCIETY - I Can Be Free/ SINYX - The Plague/ ASSASSINS - From the Gutter/ POLEMIC - Deceptive Ideals/ ERATICS - Capital Punishment
