Crucifix was founded and fronted by Cambodian-born singer Sothira Pheng, whose family had fled the country when the Khmer Rouge seized power.
They were distinct among American underground bands for their strong D-beat musical characteristics and anarchist content. The band’s debut 1983 full-length album “Dehumanization” on Corpus Christi Records, an offshoot of Crass Records, is often considered to be their definitive work and a cornerstone of political punk.
