Earlier this year, the internet was blindsided with the announcement of the reformation of one of America's greatest hardcore legends, Black Flag, featuring original guitarist and main songwriter Greg Ginn and the band's short-lived sophomore singer Ron Reyes. This would include a performance at U.K.'s Hevy Fest this summer with further dates still being added daily as of this writing. This would mark the first Black Flag tour since Ginn put the Black Flag name on ice in 1986. The tour will also be in support of a new record that is being released this summer.
But just a mere hour-and-a-half after the news of the Black Flag reunion came another announcement to set the hardcore heads on fire, the formation of a band called Flag. Flag would feature original Black Flag singer and current Off! frontman Keith Morris manning the mic and fleshed out with Black Flag founding bass player Chuck Dukowski,...

When two different Black Flag iterations each announced their intention to tour this year—one as Black Flag, one as Flag—smart punks knew to expect some sort of friction between them. And that anticipation has paid off, as the bands have finally started firing verbal shots at each other. Yesterday, Black Flag (Greg Ginn, Ron Reyes, and Gregory Moore) released a new single, “Down In The Dirt,” the first from a new LP due out sometime this summer on Sst. In the press release, Black Flag calls out Flag (Keith Morris, Chuck Dukowski, Bill Stevenson, and Stephen Egerton), deeming ...

Black Flag—the reconstituted version of the band that features Ron Reyes, Greg Ginn, and Gregory Moore, and not the one featuring Keith Morris, Bill Stevenson, and Chuck Dukowski that’s called Flag—has announced a summer tour. The group will tour Europe in May before jetting over to North America for six punk-packed weeks of shows. A full list of dates is below. This iteration of Black Flag has also hinted at the release of a new album, the band’s first since 1985’s In My Head. According to a press release from Sst Records, the band is ...

Two of Black Flag’s many iterations are reuniting, though neither of them involves Henry Rollins. One version is calling itself Black Flag and features Greg Ginn, drummer Robo (who left to join the Misfits in 1981), and singer Ron Reyes, who was with the band between 1979 and 1980. That crew will be playing Hevy Fest in Kent, England Aug. 2-4. Another permutation of the band will be out on the road this spring under the name Flag. That lineup features longtime bassist Chuck Dukowski, Black Flag co-founder and Circle Jerks/Off! singer Keith Morris, Descendents guitarist Stephen Egerton ...

Well, here's a blast from the past. Black Flag, the iconic '80s SoCal hardcore band, recently announced in a press release that a new album is in the works. Set to be released later this year, the record will feature guitarist and Bf founder, Greg Ginn, alongside singer Ron Reyes, drummer Gregory Moore and possible Ginn pseudonym bassist Dale Nixon.
Ginn and Reyes were the masterminds behind the reunion, deciding to collaborate once again after the two performed together at Reyes' birthday over two and a half years ago. The resulting quartet is a contentious iteration of the band, which has over the years included musicians like Keith Morris, Henry Rollins, and more.
Later this year, the band will be performing at the Ruhrpott Rodeo in Germany, the Muddy Roots Music Festival in Tennessee, and Hevy Fest in the UK. The latter show boasts a Black Flag lineup of Ginn,...

How can you be punk rock and a parent? The Other F-Word explores that question by examining the lives of a bunch of famous dudes who are giving it a go. In the rather touching trailer for this documentary, which arrives in theaters this fall, you’ll see The Red Hot Chili Peppers’ Flea, Blink-182′s Mark Hoppus, Black Flag’s Ron Reyes, and more than a dozen other musicians dealing with the challenges of raising a child — “homework, bath, bed” — in their line of wild work. “The two dominatrixes on my arm,” says Nofx’s Fat Mike while pointing to his tattoos,...

Watching Generation X turn 40, facing the consequences of a drop-out lifestyle lies a contradiction. How to you keep your edge while putting food on the table for your family? In your heyday, when it was just you, there were no bills, mortgage, dresses for the father-daughter dance, homeowner association fees, medical bills, etc. There was booze, cheap hotel rooms and rock-n-roll.
The problem with the punk ethos is a fear of selling out – which, having a family may require such a change. If you are going to raise your children in a middle class suburb, you have to tour. And tour these guys do – often spending over 100 nights of the year on the road

Most rock-centric documentaries fall into one of two camps: the hagiographical tributes to artists that frame and justify a performer's failings within the larger picture of his battles for success, and the warts-and-all examinations that tend to use the excesses of said performers as evidence of the inherent vapidity in the field. A good example of the former is pretty much any episode you ever saw of VH1's "Behind the Music," which today airs sporadic episodes profiling chart-toppers like 50 Cent but between 1997 and 2006 would spend 44 minutes running every conceivable artist through the same template of success-excess-redemption. For the producers of the series, drug abuse and infighting were an end in themselves. On the other side of the spectrum, you've got fascinating documentaries like Dig!, a riveting look at the egotistical brawling between the members of The Brian Jonestown Massacre and The Dandy Warhols. The film is utterly engrossing, but...

While I claim to be a tomboy and up until the age of 22 or so I couldn't imagine having babies (I was scared to even hold one lest I drop it), lately my ovaries have been crying out every time I see a tiny pair of shoes. Thus, when I saw the synopsis for The Other F Word at SXSW, I knew it was a documentary I Had to see; it's a narrative following various iconic punk rock musicians around as they discuss the responsibilities and life-changing aspects of going from anarchist role models to daddies.
The film is directed and written by Andrea Blaugrund, a strong female who rocked a leather jacket and motorcycle boots at the premiere. She is obviously in love with counterculture, and had been friends with Jim Lindberg of Pennywise for a long time. She was made...
