Also fully agree with your pointing out the limits of what he actually said. But... I happen to know he's down on ALL drugs (yes, the ganja included). Hey, that's his trip, whatever. It certainly won't affect how I feel about Black Flag (or even early Rollins Band... I remember seeing them at Lollapalooza 1 back in 1991, and they kicked ass live) Fully agree with Black Flag assessment. Also fully agree with your pointing out the limits of what he actually said.

BOOM! BOOM!" and call it music, and the people that make simple noises and have the nerve to call themselves artists). i had a PS1 game called MUSIC and i could make better sounds than a lot of what i hear today. PS he said "shitty drugs" not all drugs, im a ganjaman myself. and to all rollins haters : you can go fuck yourself, its comedy so grow some balls and stop bitching. Black flag is one of the best punk acts ever (even though thats just my opinion lol). and for the record i love ambience and can get into almost anything he has a good point, i think people are getting the wrong idea about what rollins has said. he didnt say "all electronic music sucks" hes just dissing the "non music fuckheads" (the namecalling is uncalled for but hes talking about the people that go to clubs to hear "BOOM!

He is just jealous that people are getting off to things that he can't relate to. Would you rather go see a comedy show / spoken word for Henry Rollins or a DAft PUnk concert???? No need to answer that....hahahahha clearly money and success have diminished Rollin's perception of what underground, experimentalism, status quo, DIY, sampling, John cage, blah blah blah actually means anymore.

Jay Leno had him make a quick stop by and chat one night, very entertaining. However I think the 70's was Rock n' Roll as it was destined to be, and fuck Rollins' "anti-drug" stance. Its okay to fight, spit, destroy stuff but drugs? Whoa, Henry no take 'em drugs. I have, and still do, and I create music in my studio, though I lack funds to promote my CD - sort of Alice In Chains / Megadeth style. Henry got funds, but no songs. No legacy. "Yeah, well he was in Black Flag. So what. Did they influence an entire generation like CSN&Y? Led Zeppelin? Aerosmith? Those bands now carry a whole new legion of fans. Henry makes a stupid video, as does DJ Steve Porter. Both are what is wrong with today's music. Got time for six pack abs? Then you ain't got time to make good music. I used to dig Rollins.

It just means different floats for different boats in different moats! And, btw I do play the guitar and keyboards as well but I don't think that in and of itself makes me anything besides a person who plays guitar and keyboards. I do agree about creating your own songs and compositions... But that CAN be done in many ways not just a couple...
