Album Notes
Personnel: Henry Rollins (vocals); Dez Cadena (guitar, background vocals); Greg Ginn (guitar); Charles Dukowski (bass); Robo (drums).Personnel: Dez Cadena (vocals, guitar); Henry Rollins (vocals); Greg Ginn (guitar); Robo (drums).Photographer: Ed Colver.Perhaps the quintessential California punk band, and one of the 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. Though the group's speedy, full-frontal assault laid the groundwork for the faster-and-louder generation of punks to come, the guitar interplay of Greg Ginn and Dez Cadena is still melodic, and often even hook-filled.The songs, delivered in an impassioned rant by a young Henry Rollins, are classic Cal-punk, mocking American complacency ("Six Pack," "TV Party") with a winning combination of anger and satire, as well as an ingratiating sense of structure. Also included on the disc is the early, pre-Rollins EP JEALOUS AGAIN, on which the band similarly rages against the machine, though the attack is a bit less refined. DAMAGED is an American punk classic, and the cornerstone of any punk collection.

Black Flag. Punk when it was DANGEROUS, SCARY.
Created: 18/11/07
) Here is the band that launched a thousand imitators. I remember when punk was not mainstream. It was exciting, a little dangerous, a little counter culture. Not the pop stylings of Green Day (not that there is anything wrong with that...)but raw, emotional punk. Greg Ginn's out style of guitar showed flashes of genius, with Henry Rollins seething vocals. This album was the "White Album" of my generation. When Henry shouts "I Want to Live... I wish I was dead." it is like poetry that sums up the adolescent angst of the Reagan era. A must have.

When I bought this CD and put it in my stereo, it was the first time I had ever heard Black Flag. I've usually heard them credited as the forerunners of hardcore punk, so I had (somewhat naive) expectations that it would sound something akin to Stretch Arm Strong or Sick of It All. What it DOES sound like is basically poppy Ramones punk with yelling vocals which hit no pitch in particular. The production is really rough and the syncronization of the instruments is not exactly tight. That being said, I think Black Flag has accomplished with this album exactly what they wanted to. This is how it's SUPPOSED to sound. The production sounds like crap because that's how punk production SHOULD sound. Admittedly, if I'm disappointed, it's probably because I expected it to sound different than it does. It's grown on me, and I think it has some really strong songs on it. For all I know, the more I listen to it and get more acclamated to what they were going for, I'll probably like it more.

Classic 80's Punk
Created: 25/05/08
Essential to any punk collection...Rollins is at his best and this is the type of ground breaking work that has resulted in so much of what we hear today. There are some classic songs and some that sound like noise, but you need to read the words, think about the time, and put on your Van hightops and try some slam dancing...
rise above and not much more

What can I say, if you're a fan of punk you probably have this in your collection or did at one time. My only complaint about this version (I assume there is a re-mastered version out there) is that it is too quiet. This music demands you crank it up!
