    Class War Biography

    UK Anarcho Punk band from London.

    Band members: Francisco Carreno, Ian Bone (4), Martin Wright (17)
    ---

    1) Class war is an England based Anarchist organisation.
    They released the "Better Dead Than Wed" 7" record in 1986.
    The single was released to coincide with the wedding of Prince Andrew and Sarah Ferguson and the front cover featured a picture of the royal couple kissing with the title of the single part covering the picture. The rear of the sleeve featured a picture of the changing of the guard overlaid with a black and white image of an inner city riot.
    The single was released on the Mortarhate label and had the catalogue number MORT 000

    The EP contained three tracks, the first two on the A side, and the third on the B side.

    1. Class War - Spoken word over a piano background.
    2. Better Dead Than Wed - A punk track about the royal wedding.
    3. Rap 'n' Durge - A powerful angry monologue over a funky backbeat featuring brass and bass. Rap 'n' Durge was about Class War's attitude to the Royal Family as a whole rather than just the Royal Wedding.

    Run-out groove

    The run out groove of the record has messages scratched in both the A and B sides:

    * A side: "EAT THE RICH!"
    * B side: "July 23. You know what to do."

    Insert

    The single contained an insert giving Class War's stance on the wedding along with full contact details for regional Class War groups and the paper.

    2005 release

    The title track has been updated and re-released as a free mp3 download available from the Mortarhate site This time the image is of Prince Charles riding a horse bearing a striking resemblance to Camilla Parker-Bowles.

    2) Straight edge hardcore from Australia
