Jake from the HERETICS anarcho punk band wrote this. Probably the best first hand account of London Punk around the time of Crass squatting the ZIG Zag club, Wapping Autonomy Centre or Centro Iberico. Loads of old names will come back to anyone involved in English punk back then. Tampax Wankstain, Scarecrow, Sniper. If you ever soaped a stamp or read Kill Your Pet Puppy you'll love this. Listening to an old Heretics tape, singing my head off to Substitute writing this. When did we all get so old? How did we all get so old?
Rest In Peace all those who fell during the punk wars.
