Album Notes & Community Reviews

Despite intense criticism for signing to a major label, Anti-Flag unleashed perhaps their most overtly political record with 'For Blood and Empire'. The highly energetic pop-punk album is a scathing, anthemic critique of the Bush administration and the Iraq War, packed with driving guitar hooks and aggressive gang vocals.
