Bought this CD when it first came out. I love it. Flux of Pink Indians really take you back musically to the ages of Rudimentary Peni and Crass. This is the ideal FoPI album to get if you're trying to decide which one to buy. Favorite song is Sick Butchers.

This is one of the greatest,rawest,in your face anarcho-political albums of all times.It combines Crass-like
topics-in a little less emphatical way -with corrosive hardcore punk,
full of guitar feedback and shouting ,characteristic of this style.There are,nonetheless,some twisted melodic lines
along,which gives this band their unique and peculiar sound.I really can't reccomend this highly enough,and if you
can put up with some less than perfect sound,¨Live Statement¨features all of these songs at a live performance in Nottingham,versions being even rawer,especially the singing.Bear in mind,though,Strive...has a rather uneven tonal quality to it,so an equalizer is mandatory to unleash the astonishingly authoritative drumming delivered by the
drummer,it does'nt get better than this,mind you

This cd took a few good listens to get into it. But i did notice all the feedback they put in there songs get annoying as hell. They have a unique sound..its worth a listen to what the bands of today were influenced by. I enjoy this way more then all them punkcore record (...).

A fierce Anarcho Punk Band, Flux of Pink Indians were a great band but not that great. this band, Rudimentary Peni, Conflict, Crass, etc. were all in the crass label and I consider these guys to be part of the "Crass Team." Flux sounds like Crass except with a different lead singer. Tube Disaster, Some of us scream some of us shout, and Take Heed are the best songs on this disc.
