Skrewdriver were a rock band formed by Ian Stuart Donaldson in Poulton-le-Fylde, England in 1976. Beginning as a non-political, non-racist punk rock/Oi! band, Skrewdriver evolved into the most prominent neo-Nazi rock band in the world. Their original line-up split in January 1979 and Donaldson reformed the band with different musicians in 1982. The new version of the band played a leading role in the Rock Against Communism movement.

All Skrewed Up is the debut studio album by the British rock band Skrewdriver, released in 1977. It was issued with four different sleeve colours – green, orange, yellow, and pale purple. It was later re-released in 1990 as “The Early Years” with five additional tracks, including the singles “Unbeliever” and “Streetfight”, originally issued on the German release. The Early Years is the only official release of the All Skrewed Up tracks on CD.

Ian Stuart Donaldson was the only member of the record’s line-up to play on future Skrewdriver releases.

The album contains none of the neo-Nazi-themed and white power-themed lyrics that Skrewdriver used later.
