Black Flag
My War
LP
SST Records

1983

I first heard My War the summer after my first year of college. My War was exactly what I needed at the time; the brutality, the dense often claustrophobic feeling of the record perfectly captured what I was, and still am, feeling at the time. I listened to this record so often that it became a joke amongst my friends whenever they came over I would have this on my turntable.

This is a rather influential record. Bands like Eyehategod, The Melvins, and Annihilation Time are greatly influenced by this record. A lot of people say that Rollins ruined Black Flag, but those people pose hard. Seriously if you don’t like My War, you don’t deserve to listen to Black Flag.

As far as I know, My War is still available from SST Records.

Here are mp3’s of My War & Three Nights.

These songs are posted for sample purposes. I post them so that people can be turned on to cool music and hopefully return the favor for someone else. Each mp3 will be up for one week and then will be taken down. please support the bands and labels by buying these records and checking them out when they play your town. DIY hardcore punk bands deserve your support as an alternative to Clear Channel/MTV/RIAA nonsense.

If you are the artist or copyright holder for this song and would like it removed please email me and it will be removed in a timely manner.
