Black Flag was formed in 1977. We first recorded in 1978.
I like a lot of electronica. I like older jazz rather than newer.
There are several books out on punk history, but I haven't read any of them. I was there.
There aren't enough people who are scaring the kind of people who work at these record companies.
Most good things happen with time; especially music, which needs time to breathe and to find its own way.
We aren't as concerned about the live aspect as other labels. The best live bands are the easiest to record.
The biggest disappointment has been seeing the number of people in this business with very shortsighted views.
The public is usually slow to catch on to new things, and it's important that musicians stick to their guns and not look for that instant gratification.
As a label, you have to treat every group and every record as a unique entity. I think that that has been our success, rather than relying upon a fan base.
