ANTI FLAG - FOR BLOOD AND EMPIRE

With America on the brink of becoming a police state, Anti Flag's new album hits really close to home. Being on RCA hasn't toned down their passionate songs of injustice at all. Perhaps the only difference between THE TERROR STATE and this album is a sound that comes across more polished. Justin Sane and his comrades tackle issues like the Project for a New American Century, the WTO, and the American media. "Depleted Uranium Is a War Crime" ends the album with one of the strongest tunes on the disc and features Rage Against the Machine/Audioslave (Rage Garden) guitarist Tom Morello. Yet another stellar release from one of the best politically-motivated bands today. It's music with a message that's well worth picking up!
