Nah I don't hate you.

Damaged is brilliant, an undeniable masterpiece. The problem I've got with it is fairly simple and fairly superficial. I think I've listened to that album 100 times...it was THE album of my early teenage years. The lyrical topics struck a real chord with me, and the generally angry and biting nature of the album was inspiration. I love Damaged, but I know every single note of that album, therefore I no longer find it interesting.

My personal favourite Black Flag release NOW, is Who's Got the 10 1/2. It captured the raw, furious and energetic sound of later 'Flag, giving a much more personal and intimate take on their work. Great stuff.
