One of the great things about Punk Rock's first wave was it's incorporation of all ideologies.  Although most new musical movements are youth movements reactions from what was before it, the land of British Anarcho-Punk could put out a band led by a middle age Jewish Russian Immigrant mother of 4.  That would be the Poison Girls, led by Vi Subversa, who passed in 2016.

This 4-track EP had 2 hits I played on the radio all the time in the mid-80's.  "Take The Toys From The Boys" is an anti-war missive couched in a religious dirge.  The title track is a feminist line list done with conviction.

The other tracks are less memorable.  "Tension" is a cool Psychic TV style audio soundscape.  The track "Perfect Crime" was  recorded for the TV programme Rebels or Hooligans.

For lovers of Crass, or Anarchy in general.
