Swastikas for Noddy is a 1988 album by English music group Current 93.
The lineup for the recording was: David Tibet, Steven Stapleton, Jhon Balance, Rose McDowall, Boyd Rice, HÖH, Ian Read, Freya Aswynn, and Douglas P., Gary Carey and Bee.
The album was re-released in 1993 under the title Swastikas for Goddy. All references to Noddy were changed to Goddy due to copyright issues.
Fans called the album "the pop album", because compared to the former style of the band, this one consists of more structurised songs with acoustic instrumentation.
The material was reworked and rerecorded, and released in 1989 on United Dairies as Crooked Crosses for the Nodding God.
Since Yesterday is a remake of the Strawberry Switchblade song of the same title, this is Rose McDowall's full time band.
