Hoist the flag

It's time to discuss the relative merits of the Black Flag back catalog. It's also a chance to start a new chain e-mail! Be sure to cut and paste it into an e-mail to everyone you know. Or else, of course, you'll get the curse:

1. Who was their best vocalist?
2. What was their best full-length or EP?
3. What's your favorite release?
4. Does anyone care what Henry Rollins has to say about anything?
5. Can Black Flag even remotely compare to the Pipe Bomb Cigarettes?
6. What did or would your parents think about you listening to Black Flag as a kid?
7. Best Blag Flag member side project, spin-off, or band that supplied a Flag member?
8. Biggest douchebag in the band?
9. Best Flag song to fuck to?
10.Just how cool a name is Robo anyway?
11.Could Black Flag have beaten Prince & The Revolution in a basketball game in 1984?


Here are my answers:
1. Hank
2. Damaged
3. My War
4. Yes.
5. No.
6. Horror. Disgust.
7. Descendents
8. so many, many choices.
9. "Revenge" from Jealous Again, but only because it's under a minute long.
10.sorta nifty.
11.Oh hell no. Dudes can ball, man.

1. Keith Morris
2. Damaged
3. Nervous breakdown
4. "If you see the you that I see when I see you seeing me, you'd see yourself so differently, believe me." Not really.
5. See track #9 on the PBC's A Tree Falls in the Forest.
6. That I was suicidal.
7. the Circle Jerks
8. Chavo
9. "No More"
10. The best.
11. It's a close call. Rollins was good at the point, and could play really tight D on Dr. Fink. Wendy and Lisa's perimeter game was no match for Greg Ginn, who was cool as the other side of the pillow from the outside.

Charlie Murphy: [referring to the Prince basketball game] "That cat could ball, man."
