The Flag - Tobacco Bay

Review by Mridul Pareek

Flag's album "Tobacco Bay" is a powerful and high-energy collection of punk rock tracks that are sure to get fans of the genre pumped up and ready to go. With a lineup that includes some of the most iconic names in punk rock history, including Keith Morris (Circle Jerks, Black Flag), Dez Cadena (Black Flag), Chuck Dukowski (Black Flag), and Bill Stevenson (Descendents), it's no surprise that the album delivers a hard-hitting and intense sound.

From the opening track "Burning The City Down" to the closing song "Go To Hell," "Tobacco Bay" is a non-stop barrage of punk rock fury. The lyrics are politically charged and angry, with themes ranging from social injustice to personal struggles. The musicianship is top-notch, with each member of the band bringing their own unique style and energy to the mix.

Summary by Mridul Pareek

Standout tracks include "The Chase," which features a driving guitar riff and a catchy chorus, and "It's Not My Time To Go-Go," which showcases Keith Morris' signature snarl. "Tobacco Bay" is a must-listen for fans of punk rock, and a testament to the enduring power and relevance of the genre.
