Album artwork for Penis Envy by Crass

Penis Envy - one the fiercest punk records ever made, released when most had written the genre off as dead. A ferocious, laceratingly intelligent, resolutely feminist din which sets the template for riot grrrl a good decade early. It's also possibly the best rock 'n' roll record you've never heard, spiced with surprisingly avant-garde forays into sound collage and musique concrete. There's even a bit of Afrobeat. Think the Manics' Holy Bible, The Beatles' epic freak-out 'Revolution 9' and Huggy Bear on 90s shame-fest The Word. It's like that, all at once.
