Antidote were a one-off collaboration between The Ex and Chumbawamba (although a 7" white label bootleg, 'One Does Not Sell The Earth Upon Which The People Walk', appeared some time after this EP – if anyone has a high quality rip of this I'd be very grateful and happy). Both bands are at their politically angriest best here and the musical synergy is enjoyably intense. They pull no punches with the lyrics – in essence ALL FASCISTS ARE FAIR GAME! There's no room for nice liberal debates about 'freedom of speech' when braindead boneheads are marching down your street, something they were still doing a lot of at this time (although AFA and friends were soon to take care of much of that). The tactics of the fascists may have changed, as have our responses, but the message remains the same – ¡They Shall Not Pass!
OP's opinion: @@@@@
A classic 7"
Don't reckon this one is as good (but still decent)…

Cheers for that mate
I read that Antidote did a tape release on Sky and Trees Records back in the mid 80's. Having listened to this, it's definitely got that feel to it – I wouldn't be surprised if this is a vinyl pressing of that tape. I'll have to do a bit of research and see if I can find out more.
