Black Flag - My War
The artwork for Black Flag's second album "My War" was done by Raymond Pettibon who was the bands founder Greg Ginn's younger brother. Pettibon was originally the bass player for the band when they were known as Panic. After discovering that another band had claim to the name Pettibon suggested the name "Black Flag" and designed the classic four bar logo. His pen and ink artwork created a visual companion to the hardcore music of the time with it's often violent and anti authority lyrical and visual themes. These days Pettibon is one of the most saught after artists of our times and commands a high price for his original works.
