Crass were a punk rock band from Epping in England and progenitors of militant anarchism that became pervasive in the punk music scene. Their philosphical influence on numerous punk bands from the 1980s on cannot be overstated, even if few bands mimicked their more free-form musical style. Whereas the Sex Pistols' anarchism seemed to be a self-consciously nihilistic prank, Crass's anarchism was more directly linked to the libertarian socialist or communalistic varieties of 20th century anarchism.
