Vinyl: VG
Cover: VG
1981 landmark hardcore LP, original pressing w/ the "Anti-Parent" sticker. Comes with two copied inserts, the paper seems different from other inserts I have seen from this SST era. Sounds great on my set up, especially when played very loudly.
First pressing is this issue (MCA logo on rear, "anti-parent" sticker on some, "UNI/4" matrices).
MCA Records (with which Unicorn Records had a distribution deal) distribution chief Al Bergamo announced that the company would not distribute this record, deeming that "It just didn't seem to have any redeeming social value" and because, as a parent with two children, he found it an anti-parent record. "Damaged" was eventually released by Unicorn through an independent distributor. Later, after Unicorn's bankruptcy and almost two years of litigation during which Black Flag was forbidden to release any record, the band re-released and distributed it through Greg Ginn's own SST Records.
This record cost Black Flag $8,000 (USD) to produce. 25,000 pressed.
Lyric sheet was available by mail.
Some early copies released with a sticker stating "As A Parent..., I Found It An Anti-Parent Record..." on the back of the jacket, covering up the MCA distribution logo.
