Album Review
Laying down the groundwork for what would become one of the most visceral bands of all time, Nervous Breakdown was the first release from Los Angeles' Black Flag. While it is certainly more "punk" than their later work (singer Keith Morris sounds like a graduate from the Johnny Rotten school of diction, and Greg Ginn's guitar work is less modal), all the songs have the basic elements of what made Black Flag special: rage, anger, intensity, cynicism. Most definitely the blueprint for what would be termed L.A. hardcore, Nervous Breakdown is one of the quintessential releases in the history of American punk/independent music.
Customer Reviews
Oh joy
The way this orchestra plays is superb. I'm moved to tears. Very relaxing. I have no ear drums you see but I can feel the vibrations.
One of the great EPs of our time
It truly is, from Greg Ginn's opening (as usual, bone grinding) guitar intro of "Nervous Breakdown" to the 49 second wail of "Wasted", every song here is a true classic and essential for any burdgeoning punk-rock fan. You can hardly call yourself otherwise if you do not own these songs!
