Early Anti-Flag is really sweet....The more recent album is pretty good but the earlier stuff is growing on me.

UNDERGROUND NETWORK, ALTOINATIVE COMMUNICASHON!

They are such hypocrites, advertising shirts in Hot Topic while writing songs about the destruction of capitalism.

Anti Flag is as punk rock as Sum 41.

If your referring to the new stuff, than yes your right....Especially their new album Bright Lights Of America, they kinda drifted from punk....I blame it on Morissey's producer.

Yeah, their old stuff was punk, but the last few albums aren't punk. Mohawks and left-wing lyrics don't make up for how poppy they truly are.

For Blood And Empire was punk, that was a great album.

This doesn't sound very punk to me.

YouTube - Anti-Flag - This is the end (for you my friend)

YouTube - Anti-Flag - One Trillion Dollars

YouTube - For Blood And Empire - Hymn For The Dead

Sounds more like Good Charlotte with political lyrics. It's pop-punk at best.

They're not as punk as everyone makes them out to be.

I agree those songs lean more on the pop punk side. But Press Corps, Depeleted Uranium, Cities Burn are very punk....Well, not very punk but better in the sense of the new album type of punk.
If that made sense.
