Anarcho Punk

A politically radical UK punk subculture developed in the late 1970s-80s by bands like Crass and Conflict, pairing DIY punk fashion with explicit anarchist, pacifist, and feminist politics as inseparable from the aesthetic. Cruder and more aggressively ideological than mainstream punk. Common pieces include black clothing covered in hand-stenciled anarchist patches, mohawks or liberty spikes, studded leather jackets and vests plastered with band names and political slogans, steel-capped Dr. Martens, ripped fishnets, military surplus trousers, and anti-war or anti-corporate pins.
