1. The earliest Crisis was a British and band, formed in 1977 which was active until the early eighties. After the dissolution of Crisis, Douglas Pearce and Tony Wakeford formed Death in June, Luke Rendall joined Theatre of Hate and Lester Jones formed Carcrash International.

Crisis performed at many rallies for Rock Against Racism (RAR), the Anti-Nazi League (ANL) and Right To Work marches eventually resulting in British music magazine Sounds using the phrase ‘Music To March To’ to describe their distinctly edgy, controversial and far-left leaning form of Punk Rock. Crisis gained a substantial following in the UK and Europe’s punk subculture. In early 1979 the group underwent a major change in personnel with Phrazer, the original lead singer and Insect Robin The Cleaner, the original drummer, being replaced by long time fan and roadie Dexter and Luke Rendall. After performing their last show supporting Magazine and Bauhaus in their home town of Guildford in Surrey on 10th May,1980 the decision was taken to dissolve Crisis.

    Terrible band. I can't believe we got bands like Death in June, Above the Ruins, and early Sol Invictus out of this. Who would have figured?

    "Тексты Crisis, как, впрочем, и сам коллектив, носили яркую анти-нацистскую направленность." Как иронично =)

    Тексты Crisis, как, впрочем, и сам коллектив, носили яркую анти-нацистскую направленность. Crisis дали множество концертов в рамках кампании «Рок Против Расизма» и на фестивалях «Анти-Нацистской Лиги». Но в музыкальном плане коллектив очень скоро отошел от традиционного working class punk в сторону большей комплексности и атмосферности саунда, заложив некоторые основы эстетики пост-панк.
