Anti-Flag

Jello

Any fans out there?

They've recently released a new album called ''For Blood And Empire'' on RCA Records, a major label, their 7th studio album. However, they insisted they want to keep things their way, not wanting to change their sound or ways.

They've come a long way since the release of ''Die For Your Government'' in 1996.

So opinions on the band/new album?

(BTW I do not work for RCA and am not promoting Anti-Flag, just in case we have another incident like what happened to Frank Cronin.)

Not my cup of tea tbh. But there's a few on here that like 'em.

lols. I'm a pretty big fan. Nearly wet myself when *someone* told me they were playing wasted in August, but was devastated to find they're only playin the Holland one.

Yeah, but what would you say?

I used to like their song called "Police Brutality" but then I heard Urban Waste's version of it and it blew me the **** away.

But yeah, I just really don't like Anti-Flag and their lyrics annoy the **** out of me. They're a pack of brown nosers.:)

Spot on.

There is no doubt Anti-flag have some good songs and some more good songs that I find are ruined by his voice at times. Would love to see them though.

Yeah Justin's voice does get really annoying. I prefer Chris' big time, but ya can't win everything.

Same here, they just have that annoying "American sound trying to be a Punk band but it's actually not" crap type of band.

Err? Yer man from the Bouncing Souls doesn't scream. He's got a pretty good voice actually.

Do you ever use proper punctuation? Nah, I thought not.

Wow, go get yourself some punk points.:rolleyes:

It's all comes down to personal preference on some one's voice though. I just don't see how you can compare Greg's voice to whiney emo vocals.
