No need to insult me, how was I supposed to know? I was checking out Crass for the first time....

ive listened to both crass and subhumans for years, and i remember finding mickey mouse is dead - crass on kazaa so I had to download it thinking it was something i havent heard, but it was subhumans. Dicks vocals can sometimes sound ALOT like Steve Ignorant, so I can see someone who is not familiar with the songs getting the two confused. Smash the Mack by Crass does have mention Mickey Mouse -
"The bricks of our world
That you cover in plastic
Will sail through your plate-glass windows.

E.T. go home...
E.T. go home...

Mickey Mouse fuck off."

Maybe thats where this whole thing started? who knows, but Crass were more than a band, they were activists who protested through poetry (check out Eve Libertine, or Joy De Vivre's writing styles) Ten Notes on A Summers Day is one of the most original albums ever created. No band to this day (with the exception of Submission Hold) has been able to recreate that style. (submission hold though, are far superior musicians and singers, but the concept is the same)

I think its pretty safe to say discharge has created just as large phenomenon with thre music as cras did. But I agree that even though discharge may be very influential they didnt bring about the "true" arts I.e. poetry, paintings, collage style. But they certainly have the band following crass has.

There they were in a pile. A pile of little arms. And I remember... I... I... I cried. I wept like some grandmother. I wanted to tear my teeth out. I didn't know what I wanted to do. And I want to remember it. I never want to forget it. I never want to forget. And then I realized... like I was shot... like I was shot with a diamond... a diamond bullet right through my forehead. And I thought: My God... the genius of that.
