Ended up living with a guy who looked exactly like the dude in the drawing. And yes, he thought of himself as a punk while also being a skinhead and extremely sexist and racist. He got his ass handed to him for talking shit in a club one night and I never saw him again. Still owes me money. Dick.
That whole compilation is chock full of goodness. If I had to pick a personal favorite, it would probably be Sepultura’s take on “Drug Me”. Just balls to the wall and not letting up for a little over a minute.
It's kind of sad that skinhead culture was appropriated by fascists in the 80s. Growing up at that time makes me feel like I had a bit part in This Is England. I remember kids at school buying tight jeans and sitting in the bath to shrink them onto their legs. It was fun before it was scary.

Or credit, at least.
