White Minority

Black Flag was (is?) one of the most important bands in punk and hardcore, period.  Their first few EP's and LP's are essential to the history of hardcore, and punk in general.  Jealous Again is one of their earlier efforts which also features the band's second vocalist.  It's unfortunate that Chavo was only the frontman on this EP because he is definitely a show of force.  This might be blasphemy but I'd rank him above Keith Morris as far as being a vocalist is concerned - he doesn't beat out Rollins though.  This EP is second only to 'Damaged' in my opinion.  Anyway, here is a first press copy with the thick chip board cover.

  1. I totally agree on this release, some of their best stuff. I love Chavo's voice on this stuff too. I got a copy of this for a few bucks on ebay, but it has a big coffee stain on it haha. DId you know Chavo will be doing the vocals on their reuinion tour? Not too sure how I feel about that. Wish it was Rollins, but whatever. I'm still going!

    1. Yeah I heard that. I'm not sure how I feel about the reunion in general, especially with Chavo on vocals.
