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.
