Re: Band: Black Flag
11The First Four Years was my intro to the band and so I'm more partial to the Keith / Dez albums. Never quite got into Henry or any of the later stuff.
Live ‘84 all the way!M.H wrote: Thu Dec 22, 2022 9:03 am In My Head (Most sophisticated and fully realised, amazing playing. I would love to hear where they would have taken this sound if they'd managed another album or so. I also highly rate the first 2 Gone records if you're into this one.)
My War (Terrible, sterile recording, def missing that 2nd guitar, but there's enough live and demo tracks out there to hear these songs in a more rockin' form and the B-side really was an unprecidented trawl through v. dark waters indeed.)
Damaged (Tension, release, dynamics and drama. Still sounds explosive (2 guitars playing material mostly written / developed for one.) Personally I could lose 'T.V Party' and 'Six Pack' to make the record even more direct.)
If I could vote for Live 84 then I would.
