| | Black Flag (band) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Most of the band's material was released on Ginn's independent label, SST Records. | | | Black Flag's music defied categories: Along with being among the earliest punk rock groups to incorporate elements of heavy metal, there were often overt jazz and contemporary classical elements in their sound, especially in Ginn's guitar playing. | | | The record was to be distributed by now-defunct Unicorn Records, a subsidiary of MCA. |

| | For all intents and purposes, Black Flag invented the hardcore punk sound that most punk bands emulated in the '80s and '90s. | | | Black Flag defined the essential American punk aesthetic, influencing thousands of young punk bands across the country, the vast majority of which never came close to the quality of prime Black Flag. | | | Black Flag weren't concerned with being the best "punk" band. |

| | Black Flag concerts were typically an utter mess, which suits the songs perfectly, making this chaotic explosion naturally one of their best releases. | | | Via the band's still-thriving SST label, Black Flag played an essential role in the development and popularization of American punk. | | | Black Flag was, for all intents and purposes, America's first hardcore band. |

| | BLACK FLAG PICS |
| | There are so many bands (and fans) who do not realize what this musical group did for the punk music industry. | | | They paved the way for the likes of Blink, Green Day, and any punk band that claims to be punk. | | | It is a known fact that any new band claiming to have punk roots would reflect on the teachings of Nervous Breakdown, Fix Me, Jealous Again, Wasted, I've had it, and anything SST Records pumped out of the 80's. |

| | See, the band was listening to Hendrix and Hakwind and other stoner/psychedelic/experimental un-punk music while touring for Damaged. | | | Black Flag is the band, the only band that's worth a shit. | | | Black Flag is a damned good band, but if you want to listen to an even better hardcore band around for just as long, buy a Bad Brains album. |

| | Perhaps the quintessential California punk band, and one ofthe founding fathers of hardcore, Black Flag is to America what the Sex Pistols are to the U.K. DAMAGED is the band's most loved album, featuring some of its best-known songs. | | | People talk about the British punk music classic bands but there was absolutely nothing as vitriolic and full of genuine fury as this album at the time. | | | If you listen to this album in the spirit it was intended to be then you will see why, rightly so, this was one of the most important punk albums ever. |

| | An admirable document of what was happening at the time, the 75-minute Live `84 isn't for the first-time listener, but does to remind us of how important this band was to face of modern punk music. | | | The sound quality of Live '84 CD isn't lop-notch (the release was originally on cassette only), but it does a good job of conveying the Black Flag live experience. | | | The chops of the rest of band hold up better under the strain: Ginn opens the set with the epic guitar solo known as "The Process Of Weeding Out" and Stevenson and Roessler ably keep up throughout. |

| | While recording the album, Black Flag received an offer from a small label named Unicorn, which also owned the Hollywood studio where the album was being cut. | | | Dez Cadena (third Black Flag vocalist, later guitarist): “When the Ramones first came to L.A., we knew that they were a punk rock band, but because they were on a big record label, we expected them to be in a big Winnebago and traveling like rock stars. | | | At one point, the band was enjoined from using the name Black Flag for any release, even on recordings that had been made prior to entering a deal with Unicorn. |

| | Black Flag - My War |
| | Black Flag was the only band I've ever seen whose live shows were attended by those who loved them and hated them in equal proporations, and this only added to the thrust of their energy. | | | Fans of the band were admittedly split over it, but I loved it with a zeal I'd not known before. | | | Sure, they were a thrash band in 1981, but this mid- to slow-tempo, pain, angst and agony sound became the meat of Black Flag, what the Flagship was all about. |

| | Black Flag recorded their debut E. 'Nervous Breakdown' in January of 78 although due to lack of dollars in the kitty of the tiny label promising its release, the tape remained unvinyled until a, year later when the dark flag four formed their own company, SST. | | | Another hard core band, X, suffered a similar fate when the man read some of their lyrics. | | | He's an old friend of the band and hails from another emerging bastion of hard core punk, Washington DC. |

| | This show is available on vinyl as a single side of a vinyl EP that feaures the Rollins Band and Gore. | | | The fact that this CD is from 1994 suggests perhaps that the makers of this CD were trying to capitalize and join the bumper crop of Rollins Band bootlegs in that year. | | | This CD provides a decent sounding record of a very early Rollins Band peformance at the El Mocambo club in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. |

| | SST Records- Perfect Sound Forever |
| | SST, the record label, was formed in 1978 when Black Flag guitarist/founder Greg Ginn needed an outlet to release his band's music. | | | Such a statement may sound corny in this day and age, and the Minutemen were in fact quite a corny band at times, though this is no Sham 69 for-the-kids bogusness, it's a band stating punk as an idea, not a musical style. | | | The band had been going for two years (originally under the title Panic) and had built up a solid fan base in the LA area, and so spurred on by the DIY spirit of the time, he did what many others like him did: he started his own label and released the Nervous Breakdown 7". |
