Black Flag was one of America's first hardcore punk bands, emerging from Southern California and gaining international prominence. They played a vital role in the development and popularization of American punk through their SST label. Despite numerous personnel changes, Black Flag persevered until 1986, exploring the intersection of punk and heavy metal. Guitarist Greg Ginn founded the band in 1976 with vocalist Keith Morris, and remained the only constant member until their split. In recent years, Ginn has resurrected Black Flag for shows and announced plans for extensive touring and new material.

Guitarist and songwriter Greg Ginn founded Black Flag in 1976 along with vocalist Keith Morris. They were initially called Panic before adopting the name Black Flag a few years later. Ginn remained the only consistent member until their split in 1986. In 2003, Ginn brought back Black Flag for benefit shows featuring contributions from both old members and new players.

In January 2013, Greg Ginn announced that he was relaunching Black Flag with vocalist Ron Reyes for extensive touring and recording new material. At the same time, Keith Morris and Chuck Dukowski launched a separate project called Flag to perform the music of Black Flag alongside former members Bill Stevenson and Dez Cadena as well as Descendents/ALL guitarist Stephen Egerton.

SST is a German disc mastering and lacquer cutting company that operated under this name from 1969 until November 2016. It was founded by a sound engineer, *name*, as a side job to his main occupation with the German public broadcasting company. In 1971, *name's wife* started cutting due to an increasing order volume. The studio had two disc mastering studios equipped with Neumann VMS80 lathes. After the Brüggemanns retired in 2011, the studio was owned and operated by *Daniel Krieger*. The cutting engineers at SST included Christa Brüggemann (1971 - May 2011), Daniel Krieger (since 1997), Michael Haas (1995 - 2004), Martin Wegner (since 2011), and Alex Nimmermann (since 2014). In November 2016, the company moved to a new location and was renamed to Schallplatten Schneid Technik GmbH.

Back In Stock

This is the last if not the greatest of all the Black Flag albums, but this is full of great songs and a massive production sound that makes a wonderfull farewell album mixing raging hardcore with beatnik jazz and Sabbath-esque wizardry.
