Stations of the Crass is the second album by the English anarcho-punk band Crass, released in 1979. The record, originally released as a double 12-inch, includes live tracks from a gig recorded at the Pied Bull pub in Islington, London, on 7 August 1979. The first three sides contain the studio tracks and play at 45 rpm, while the final side features the live material and plays at 33⅓ rpm.

The album's name is a pun on the Stations of the Cross, a series of depictions of the Passion of Jesus Christ traditionally found in Catholic churches. The cover art features a photograph of a wall at Bond Street station on the London Underground System, which had been defaced with Crass's slogan "There is NO authority but yourself".

Stations of the Crass is considered to be one of Crass's most important albums. It is a scathing attack on capitalism, sexism, racism, and all forms of authority. The album's music is a mixture of fast, aggressive punk rock and slower, more experimental tracks. The lyrics are often polemical and confrontational, but they are also full of humor and wit.
