5.0 out of 5 starsHow can people bag on this album? My personal favorite 'Flag LP
By Stephanie Sandlin on January 3, 2006
Format: Audio CD
Slip It In.

Ok, I'll admit something here. I'm perplexed how people can bash on this Flag record. Out of all the Flag albums I've heard and had at various times this is the one I come back to the most.

I recently encoded to WAV my vinyl copy I bought at Tower Records in Bellevue, WA in 1986 (oh the memories). I listened to the whole damn thing tonight while working out. I have to give it rave reviews. This album still rocks. Its almost as some other reviewers have said a mix of punk, hardcore and maybe a skosh of metal in there. I love the energy, the attitude and swagger. ( Its also a great album to do cardio to, but thats another subject.)

I think the flow of the record is great. The first three songs bust out the gate and don't slow down till Rat's Eyes. Then a brief reprieve and off you go again.

Favorite Tracks:
Black Coffee
You Think You're Evil
Obliteration (interesting song progression)
Slip It In
The Bars

This is a long way removed from Damaged, which is great on its own. My War I can't get into as much, sludgey and the material isn't as ferocious. Plus, I don't think that album flows as well and the band doesn't seem to being into it as much.

Seems there are factions of fans who like specific angles of 'Flag. Chalk me up as one who thinks Slip It In is one of thier top tier albums. Fusing punk, hardcore, 70s hard rock and charging hard makes it thier most complete album. It does what few artists dare to do - fuse genres. It works brilliantly here.

Would recommend this and Damaged as a introduction to 'Flag.

Fun sidenote to this LP - Etched in the vinyl after the last song on each side is a message:
S1: "Only The Steaming Liquid of Caffeine... Stark ... Starker"
S2: "And Walked Out Into the Bright Light without Sunglasses"

I don't know if the CD has this. Thought I'd throw that one out there.

5.0 out of 5 starsVery underrated and the last essential Black Flag album.
By Ferguson on August 8, 2005
Format: Audio CD
I'm not sure if it's the best Black Flag overall but it's certainly one of them.

There's a couple of things i've never understood about how 'Flag fans perceive this album. One is how it isn't considered up there with "first four years", "damaged" and "my war" when it's easily as good as any of them and the other is that people rag on this but love "my war" which i find mind-boggling as "my war" is far more sludgey and complex whilst this is actually quite, ya know, hardcore. Listen to this and "my war" together and then tell me which is the most straightfoward hardcore album. Black Flag are often described at being the point in rock history where The Stooges met Black Sabbath and if "my war" is their most 'Sabbath influenced album then "slip it in" is the Stooges album as it's the most sexual album the 'Flag made. That's not to say the Black Sabbath influence and lurching tempo changes found on "my war" aren't here, they are on songs like "obliteration" and "rats eyes", but there are also vicious hardcore songs like the title track, "black coffee", "the bars" and "my ghetto" here too. It's just that the band could really play now (Kira and Bill Stevenson are the best rhythm section they ever had and Greg Ginn in his prime is a true heir to Ron Asheton from The Stooges) and weren't interested in making minute-long-thrashes anymore.

Don't get me wrong, i agree that the later albums "loose nut" and "in my head" are both pretty horrific (although there are demo and live versions of songs from both which are ferocious like the '82 demo of "modern man") and while i do have a slight fondness for the "process of weeding out" e.p i can see why yer garden variety hardcore fan was disgusted by it and would have to admit that it is a prog/jazz-rock noodle-fest. "Slip it in", however, is still Black Flag at their best and is the last truely essential album they made.

5.0 out of 5 starsThe best of the best
By andrada on July 2, 2014
Format: Audio CD Verified Purchase
The best of the best: Black Flag, the foundation of American punk and west coast HC, at its better time, with a furious album which catches the intensity of Greg Ginn and his creative capacity as a composer snd protester, longer songs with killer riffs and sarcastic lyrics and Rollins screaming like a maniac years before "death metal" came up. A masterpiece of underground fast music, simply dirty, loud and angry as it should always be!

5.0 out of 5 starsBlack Flag - 'Slip It In' (SST)
By Mike Reed VINE VOICE on May 15, 2007
Format: Audio CD
I've never been the biggest fan of hardcore, but I do know a great record when I hear it. 'Slip It In' is the band's third effort that was originally released in 1984. Tunes I found myself playing a lot off here were the title track "Slip It In", the in-your-ugly-*ss-mug "Black Coffee", "Rat's Eyes", "The Bars" and the body slammin' classic "My Ghetto". This is the sort of music that lures you to drive around at 3am and smash up every mail box (the ones they have by the end of the driveway) within a two mile radius. Line-up: Henry Rollins-vocals, Greg Ginn-guitar, Kira Roessler-bass and Bill Stevenson-drums. Should appeal to most fans of Misfits, the Germs, Minor Threat and Dead Kennedys. Believe I saw guitarist Greg Ginn's post-Black Flag trio, Gone play an actual in-store appearance. Wasn't just a three song mini-set, it was like a 45 minute show that had nearby tenants calling the police. You KNOW you've had a great time when that happens. Highly recommended.

5.0 out of 5 starsBeginning of the End
By Jethro M. on March 30, 2015
Format: Audio CD Verified Purchase
Slip It In is an extension of the sound Black Flag utilized on its second album My War: heavy, cathartic, intense, dense and progressive. At this point, Black Flag was considered by many to be one of the leading bands of the American punk scene. The album pursued the newer, lengthier song arrangements that Black Flag would develop until its demise. It also features Henry Rollins' further development as a songwriter, contributing four of eight tracks on the album. This album also demonstrates Black Flag’s increasing use of instrumentals, where Greg Ginn demonstrates his increasingly more complex playing style.
