Today, one of the versions of Black Flag released a song for free download. The incarnation of the band featuring Greg Ginn and Ron Reyes released “Down in the Dirt” on the band’s website via SST Records. And as the band finalizes plans to release an album and tour, they also managed to take a shot at the Keith Morris incarnation of the band:
SST Records is proud to announce a free download of the first new BLACK FLAG song in many years. On the upcoming 22 song LP to be released this summer, “Down in the Dirt” features Ron Reyes on vocals, Greg Ginn on guitar/theramin, My War bassist Dale Nixon on bass, and Gregory AMoore on drums. The band will begin touring in May in both Europe and the U.S. ***note: not to be confused with the ‘fake’ Flag band currently covering the songs of BLACK FLAG in an embarrassingly weak “mailing it in” fashion*** We urge you to check out the real Black Flag when they hit your area.
The band’s tour dates are after the jump.
