Black Flag in Sheffield

Black Flag is an American hardcore punk band formed in Hermosa Beach, California, in 1976 by guitarist Greg Ginn. Its catalog includes the early EP Nervous Breakdown and the albums Damaged and My War, as well as songs such as “Rise Above,” “TV Party” and “Six Pack.” In the early 1980s, Black Flag toured clubs and improvised venues across North America and Europe. Live ’84 documented a performance at the Stone in San Francisco, while Who’s Got the 10½? was recorded at the Starry Night in Portland in 1985. After the original run ended in 1986, later reunions included performances in 2003 and a renewed touring lineup led by Greg Ginn in 2013.
