Description
Black Vinyl LP
Black Flags astonishing burst of productivity from 1984 to 1985 five studio albums, a live record, and an experimental EP created a lot of impressive music, but Loose Nut is the pinnacle. On albums like Family Man and Slip It In, the band experimented with everything from Sabbath-like metal to spoken-word to lengthy jazz-tinged instrumental explorations, all of them pretty much ignoring the hardcore velocity of earlier records like Damaged and Jealous Again. But Loose Nut returned that early aggression and speed to the bands more experimental sound, with devastating results. This Is Good, one of Henry Rollins most anguished songs, is the clear highlight, but the sardonic Bastard In Love and the brutal Annihilate This Week are nearly as powerful. Guitarist Greg Ginn keeps the solos to a minimum, and Kira Roesslers melodically intricate bass is prominent throughout.
