Faccia A Faccia

One of the longest running punk bands in Italy, Klasse Kriminale were founded in 1985 by leader Marco Balestrino, a singer, fanzine-editor and label-manager, whose role in the skinhead scene over the past 25 years has been somewhat crucial. Influenced by early Reggae, '82-era UK Oi!, and Punk, but also following in the footsteps of Italian skinhead pioneers Nabat and Rough (90% of their songs are typically sung in Italian), Klasse Kriminale's career has been long and scattered with success.Originally released on the New Rose sub-label, Division Nada (run by Berurier Noir's singer Francois), and long out of print, it's about time that their classic Faccia a faccia from 1991 becomes available on vinyl again, with it's original and extremely distinctive Alteau artwork.
