UK cassette and record label Broken Flag was founded in 1982, and whilst not having released anything for a long time, it has never officially ceased to exist. Their primary interest was radical music, noise and power electronics. They first released music by label boss Gary Mundy's project, Ramleh, but later also by Le Syndicat, M.B., Controlled Bleeding, Giancarlo Toniutti and various Mundy solo projects.
As Loud As Possible magazine first published the text by Steve Underwood (Harbinger Sound label boss) in 2010, but it is expanded here with additional interviews; updates; a reprint of two issues of Broken Flag's fanzine, "Even When It Makes No Sense"; and reproductions of many of the label's cassette covers. A fascinating read and an indispensable piece of industrial music history.
Paperback, 17x24cm, 144pp.
