Album Of The Month:Damaged

Album:Damaged

Artist:Black Flag


Representing the Los Angeles hardcore punk scene, "Damaged" came out
in 1981 and blew away everything in its sight. The songs are heavy,
fast and perfect for Henry Rollins' bark. When Rollins yells "We are
tired of your abuse" on "Rise Above," a million disenfranchised kids
shook their heads in understanding. "Damaged" was the album for the
quit, shy kid who was afraid to express himself. Black Flag gave him voice.
