Flux of Pink Indians - The Fucking Cunts Treat Us Like Pricks (1984)


Flux of Pink Indians were an Anarcho-Punk band formed circa 1980 in England. Their relatively short career  which ended in 1987, saw the release of 3 politically fueled, noisey Punk albums. The band was previously known as The Epileptics (and later Epi-X after some British association regarding epilepsy started whining about their name) a couple years prior to changing their name to Flux of Pink Indians. They were certainly one of the better bands to come out of the Anarcho-Punk scene in the early 70's/late 80's. Anarcho-Punk itself helped shape other popular genres such as Grindcore or Crust Punk. It also helped in the foundation of Folk-Punk, which in turn shaped Indie-Folk as it is today. I've always found it interesting how genres that seem so different, like Anarcho-Punk and Indie-Folk, can still end up being very related.
