Reissue of the Week: Flag of Democracy

FLAG OF DEMOCRACY — “Love Songs” EP
Ah yes, killer reish here of the second best record to ever emerge from the City of Brotherly Love. (YDI 7″ is number one if you were curious.) Anyway, F.O.D. seems to have gotten an unfair shake on account of being a “funny band,” and for pressing on far past their peak, but this six-songer is prime, ’80s East Coast suburban, lawn-mowing, hardcore thrash at its finest, a perfect kindred spirit with ADRENALIN O.D. The hyper-speed, snappy thrashers that fill the grooves of this 7″ are a crucial piece of the ’80s American hardcore puzzle that definitely need to be digested more than once if you fancy such things.
