"El Corte Ingles" has withdrawn all discs by the Basque group "soziedad alkoholika" after threats from unspecified far right groups acting in support of AVT (the association of victims of terror one of the two umbrella groups for such victims of the basque conflict in Spain). Who have long campaigned for the bands "who are closely aligned with independence movements and lyrics promote terror" to be "punished.
http://www.minutodigital.com/noticias/1551.htm

Soziedad Alkoholika or S.A. was born in 1988 at the end of a punk wave which had found popularity in anti-establishment sentiments throughout the peninsula but particularly in the basque country and the lyrics concentrated on the "basque problem".
http://www.soziedadalkoholika.com/
"At the beginning, they wanted to be called Amonal, but this name was already used by another band. Soziedad Alkoholika was selected as the name for the group because it has never been a sacrifice to any member in the band to go from pub to pub."

The logo they used on discs and t-shirts was an obvious visual pun on the seal of ETA which accompanies all its communications and is to be found on their 11 discs so far.

it is reported that "El Corte Ingles" withdrew the products after unspecified threats were made to its retail operations throughout the state.

You may see both logos in the image attached (if not edited)

the spanish asks if the similiarity between logos is a mere coincidence.
