Black Flag - 1984 - Slip It In


Black Flag's first album that really demonstrates its shift towards punk/metal crossover. The title song is awesome and the second half gets really experimental and sludgy.

Leftöver Crack - 2001 - Mediocre Generica


Super fucking hardcore. Lots of screaming, anti-globalization themes, and some really awesome riffs. Plus some hilariously irreverent classical interludes. Great crusty ska-punk. Highly highly highly recommended. Get ready to fucking kill some cops.

Metallica - 1987 - The $5.98 E.P.: Garage Days Re-Revisited


Haven't actually listened to this yet, but it's some rare Metallica shit if you're interested. It's all covers of old metal songs.

Black Flag - 1985 - The Process of Weeding Out [EP]

A crazy EP, basically created with a general intention of stretching the notions of what could and couldn't be considered hardcore punk. Before I go any further I should mention that the entire thing is instrumental so if that turns anyone off, this is your moment to run in fear (but seriously, Henry Rollins doesn't make a single appearance). For those who are still with us, check it out. It's wierder than a lot of Black Flag's other stuff, but it's a good listen. Greg Ginn's guitar is crazy as ever, harmolodic as always. I think it's cool because they clearly know they're pushing past true "hardcore punk" into new territory. One could seriously argue whether or not this is proto-post-hardcore or some other ridiculous term for hours, but I'm not gonna get into that (although I will admit I'm generally a huge proponent of genre categorization and whatnot, here it's just not important). It's Black Flag. It's a significant departure, but it's still Black Flag and it's very listenable.
