Black Flag - My War lp "Despite some less than stellar reviews, My War was a solid record. I love the songs, as well as the artwork. I’ve gotten myself into a few arguments over th e years about it being one of their better releases, and maybe I am biased, as it was my introduction to Black Flag, but I stand by it being one of their best. The band covered some more experimental ground with My War, there are solos, and metal influences scattered throughout the record. The songs are longer, and they changed up the typical song structure, but I think it for the most part, it worked in their favor. The biggest downfall of the record in hindsight was that some of the songs are simply just too long. Even “Can’t Decide” doesn’t need to be five minutes. That being said, whether “Nothing Left Inside” was too long or not, that riff could get a pit going strong to this day." - Maximillian Power / Punk News Show more
