Sound - 9 Anti-flag have returned to form. In the first album since Underground Network I can say this is the Anti-Flag I fell in love with. Not to say The Terror State, For Blood And Empire, or The Bright Lights weren't bad just not as good as previous efforts. This is the first CD after dropping their major label and you can tell. 11 songs clocking in around 30 minutes. The bass work is fantastic as usual with the songs having a healthy split between singers as well.

Also without George Bush Anti-Flag are important. On their seventh album "The people or the gun" there's no less aggression. For me, this is the best genre release of the year so far. When their last one, "The bright eyes of America", came out, I thought that the Flag have reached their climax - but with "The people or the gun" they even top this off! Songs like "The economy is suffering - let it die" or "The gre(a)t depression" (among others, Tim McIllrath of Rise Against makes a guest appearance on this one) are just great catchy songs forcing you to dance along. Customers also bought.

Indictments abound on The People Or The Gun, Anti-Flag's seventh full-length that proves Pittsburgh's politically aware punks haven't lost their bite nor bark. The album never challenges the conventions of a political punk rock record. Because so many political punk rock records have come and gone, Anti-Flag missed another opportunity to at least make The People or the Gun a little more compelling than its army of predecessors. 70. Even if People or the Gun does nothing to break new barriers musically, fans of their early work will be pleased to hear a return to form.

The new album sounds more like an EP than an album - a little bit like their previous EP, A Benefit for Victims of Violent Crime, but this time all the 10 (plus one) songs have never been released before. Basically, after I heard this disc the first time, I wanted to go down in the streets with a molotov.
