Anti-Flag

Pittsburgh anarcho-punks mix political leanings with fiery pop-punk for hefty following.

Biography

Making their debut at a local Pittsburgh radio station in 1993, Anti-Flag got together for the sake of expressing their disgust at religion, nationalism, and fascism. In 1997, after releasing a handful of singles, opening for their idols the U.K. Subs, the Exploited, and the Circle Jerks, and briefly touring the East Coat (which led to the departure of Andy Flag) Die for the Government was released, and 20,000 copies, four bassists, and four North American tours later, Anti-Flag gained their reputation for recapturing the old-school ethics of punk: fast, loud, obnoxious, and anti-everything that ends with an "ism." ~ Mike DaRonco
