Fucked Up with Keith Morris performing 'Nervous Breakdown'

[latitudetwenty]

Karaoke version ;) A shame really because that IS the Black Flag sound.



[deathprince]

Keith is a God!!!

[devilred1971]

acidcakes i'm with u keith is my favorite vocalist with black flag

[jurrobear23]

Notice Pink Eyes losing his shit in the pit.

[AUSROTTENY2K]

this sucks. you can't even here him fucking singing

[Emort8]

Wish the youngsters in the front row knew their Black Flag lyrics. Sing along fuckers, how long are your icons gonna be alive.  They are 30-40 years your elder, youngsters!

[AccountForWhat]

All you Reyes lovers, after he quit (mid-set), (not straight after...) He started all this shit with them. Hit Dez in the face with a brick, smashed there van windshield, fucked up there Canada tour. He's now a born again Christian. I dig his voice but he seemed like a complete fake... He wasn't meant for BF. Rollins is the best (although hes now a washed up wannabe... everything). Late BF is far better in my opinion, Ginn was always too experimental to keep playing straight hardcore punk.

[mechanicalanimals015]

Awesome

[Oi325]

yeah keith morris was great in decline of western civilization with the circel jerks!!! RED TAPE!!!

[ben12895]

shit half those kids do not even know what theyre seeing. those fuckers in the back just standing there

[AcidCakes]

My favorite Black Flag vocalist period.

[distillersdemon]

I actually preferred Henry to Keith as Black Flag's vocalist. Not sure why. I just think his vocals worked better with the music for me.

I like Keith more in the Circle Jerks, which is why they're one of my favourite bands. :)

[80smoviesguy]

i think i'd have to say Ron Reyes is my favorite black flag vocalist

[markymangle]

Hell yeah! Reyes was the shit! He left the band too soon.

[fredyzpt]

I preferred Ron Reyes to Henry Ron just had something about him

[EmilyOlgs]

fucking hell as if you were that close to keith morris. the man is a LEGEND. wow!

[eatdogs]

ha ha, i like the metal dude up front headbangin'.

i couldn't tell, but i hope there weren't any dumb asses 'hardcore dancing' out there.

[BoredNBrowsin]

What the fudge are you on about? Lol. Explain to me what a hardcore dance is, and why people shouldn't do it to BF tunes.

[eatdogs]

it's the dumb 'fighting invisible ninjas' thing that the kids are doing nowadays.

oldskool hardcore stuff like slam dancing, and sort of two steppin' and circle pitting is the old stuff.

eh, it doesn't really matter, but this oldskool punk stuff is all adrenaline and there aren't that many breakdowns.

[duffers]

Alright fair enough, at shows I see it, and I don't dig, but who the fuck are you to be judging anyone? I personally think Radiohead is shit, but it's not my place to judge you, you are no better than anyone else.

And Peter, you sure like irony.

[antipeterleague]

that shit doesn't happen at fucked up shows. it only happens at fake hardcore shows.

[eatdogs]

good deal then!

i still need to catch these guys sometime.

[suretowin]

haha thats me doing the shitty stage dive 1:30 into the vid....that show was awesome.

[GINGGUY]

oh dude fucked up rules, nervous breakdown rules, black flag ruled with all their singers i'll be seein fucked up in toronto on october 19th cause they're awesome and always put on a good show, so put that in your crotch and rub it!! hehe

[Reegatron]

Hey band geeks! Shut up and enjoy the song!

[SteeeboMOFO]

LEGENDARY!

[nportena]

I saw fucked up january 1 it was amazing!

[bungoman]

i missed this by like 30 seconds =(

[ccbayer]

i wish you could hear him singing. keith morris is a dweeb but this song is amazing

[Drabgrey]

you're a dweeb, he was the singer for black flag, what have you accomplished? lol you suck.

[ccbayer]

no crap he was the singer of black flag. but now he has dreadlocks. he's basically exactly how he describes himself in "wasted." and he stole all their songs for the circle jerks.

[Drabgrey]

first off, i've never heard the circle jerks play any black flag songs, second i'm pretty sure keith did all the writing for those songs anyways, since HE was the one and only that is usually interviewed about black flag songs (that i've seen). i don't like dread lock either but if it weren't for that guy i'd have two fewer top favourite bands.

[ccbayer]

i exaggerated - there are two specific songs he stole - wasted and don't care. they're both on group sex. and since greg ginn was the main songwriter for black flag, i believe he probably wrote them. see the black flag song entitled "you've bet we've got something personal against you," for their response to him. don't get me wrong i like the circle jerks but i think this guy is a dweeb.

[Drabgrey]

fair enough

[GGAllinIsGod]

wasted and don't care are both songs are off nervous breakdown which keith sung on and is the first black flag release. if you don't think keith has just as much right to play those songs in circle jerks as black flag has right to play them without keith then i don't know what to tell you,

[GGAllinIsGod]

if you play music instead of just listening to it you'd know that so many bands barrow and cover everything from rolling stones to led zepplin and anything that influenced anything was influenced by something else.

[ccbayer]

why should keith morris have the right to those songs if he didn't write them? it's wasn't a "cover," he changed it for the circle jerks versions of the song. he left Black Flag unamicably...it wasn't an "influence" or a cover, he took the song, changed some of the words, and played it as his own. pretty straight forward. and what does playing vs. listening music have to do with anything...

and "don't care" wasn't on nervous breakdown.

[GGAllinIsGod]

if you play an instrument and listen to hardcore it's alot different then just being a critic of it. but if you don't then you wouldn't know. keith is the original singer for the songs we're talking about, so if they can go on playing the songs he sang on their record then he should be able to play them when he's not playing with them as a band. if you don't think that playing an insturment changes your outlook on music you're retarded

[ccbayer]

i stand corrected on 1 issue and that is ginn and morris cowrote "wasted," so in that respect i suppose he does reserve a right to use it as his own discretion.

[GGAllinIsGod]

considering all of the people we're talking about are musicians it would make more sense to you if you played music yourself- don't know if you do but it'd help. the influences thing i was speaking of is i heard people say before that circle jerks stole from other hardcore bands from the era and that's what i was saying had to do with influences or maybe paying tribute to bands that didn't get as much recognition but you must not have heard that so it doesn't matter.
