Anti Flag（2023最新Anti Flag百科介绍）_百科资料

简介

1993年，乐队成立；1996年乐队首张专籍《Die For Your Goverment》发行。

演艺经历

1993年反旗乐队在当地匹兹堡广播电台首次亮相。出于对美国国家主义、民族主义、政府法西斯行为和宗教组织的憎恨，Anti-Flag成员们走到了一起。

1996年乐队首张专籍《Die For Your Goverment》问世，这张对政府、富人、警察毫不留情的专辑是一张让社会主流人士泛尽胃酸的唱片。此后，他们的每一张专辑都保持了相当的批判力度。当然，随着乐队成员的不断成熟，作品的抒情性与建设性的比重也相应地有所增加。

1997年，贝司手Chris Head的加入完整了乐队的阵容。

1998年，Anti-Flag建立了A-F录音室，重新录制了当年的绝版唱片North America Sucks，再加上一些先前没有发表的歌曲，制作了专辑Their System Doesn't Work for You，这也是A-F录音室制作发行的第一张专辑。

1999年，A New Kind of Army发行，乐队不仅仅是希望把他们的信仰与信念传达给广大的歌迷，更重要的是要将乐队的宗旨延续到整个世界。

在Warped Tour的一整个夏季，乐队崇拜者的队伍不断扩大，并且结识了一堆新的朋友，其中就包括Fat Mike（Fat Wreck Chords唱片NOFX组合的成员）。

2000年，Anti-Flag应邀参加Vans Warped Tour（极限运动音乐节）。在此期间，乐队成员结识了拥有Fat Wreck Chords录音室的大牌朋克明星Fat Mike（NOFX乐队主唱）。这次邂逅产生的友谊，孕育出Anti-Flag在Fat Wreck Chords旗下的两张专辑。

2002年2月， Mobilize发行，其中大部分是乐队2001年12月在其家乡的现场演出记录，当然，也不缺少录音棚里制作的一些歌曲，特别值得一提的是"911 for Peace"，它完美地诠释了当时世贸中心所遭受的恐怖袭击。

2002年早期，Sane发行了一张个人专辑Life， Love and the Pursuit of Justice，其风格依旧延续了乐队一贯的政治立场。

2002年的秋天，Anti-Flag和Bouncing Souls的BYO Split Series合集问世，紧接着一年以后，乐队又发行了他们的全新专辑The Terror State。03年，Liberation将Anti-Flag的四首歌曲收录成一张专辑Live at Fireside Bowl，随即发行。2004年发行的DVD“Death of a Nation”收录了乐队为宣传The Terror State在美国巡演的记录，同年，A New Kind of Army问世。

2004年美国总统大选，各朋克乐团和演艺界人士联合起来发起了“反布什”2004年大选投票运动，毫无疑问，Anti-Flag是其中的一员。

然而，没有想到的是，乐队于2005年4月签约RCA旗下，随即在来年的三月推出了全新专辑For Blood and Empire。

2006年的冬天，乐队贝斯手Chris的姐姐在一次凶杀案中丧身，2007年10月，乐队在其自己的录音室里录制了这张唱片A Benefit for Victims of Violent Crime，以帮助那些同样遭受不幸的家庭，这张限量版的唱片的所有收益都将捐赠给CVVC组织。

人物评价

这支乐队有着超级激进的政治态度和无穷无尽的年青能量。但与一般的校园朋克乐队不同，他们很少把荷尔蒙撒在无头无脑的青春爱情上，而是把愤怒矛头指向虚伪可恶的美国政府、贪婪奸诈的资产阶级和野蛮自大的“警察大爷”。

《For Blood And Empire》里的13首作品除了继续保持着Anti-Flag最勇猛的音乐取向以外，也大胆地吸纳了不少旋律化的元素。像《The Press Corpse》和《1 Trillion Dollar$》这样的作品就不但有着好听的旋律，甚至连主唱Justin Sane的唱腔都不那么愤怒了。难怪有的评论里会将这张专辑称作是“Anti-Flag自组建以来最好听的唱片”。这与他们签约主流厂牌不无关系，尽管像Sony/BMG这样的公司他们关心的向来都仅仅是钞票，但他们也都绝不是傻子，签下Anti-Flag这样一个政治上的“刺头”，他们自然会在音乐上对乐队有所限制：歌词你们怎么说都行，但旋律你得弄得好听一些，让那些原来只喜欢Green Day和Blink-182的孩子们也会掏钱买Anti-Flag的唱片。
