music_noteVinyl·15 tracksMCA Distribution Logo

First pressing is this issue (MCA logo on rear, "anti-parent" sticker on some, "UNI/4" matrices). First version recut/reissue is here: [r=1696396] (No MCA logo, "Kendun" matrices). Second version recut/reissue is here: [r=3953396] (no MCA logo, "Neo-Gelatinous" and S-9375/6 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. Some copies with the anti-parent sticker that were sent out for radio promotion have an additional sticker on the front of the cover stating: "Recommended For Airplay T.V. Party Rise Above" ℗ 1981 Unicorn Records, Inc. (on anti-parent and promo stickers) ℗ 1981 SST Records (on side B label) Runouts are etched.

℗ 1981 SST Records. 1982 issue with re-cut lacquer, pressed at Rainbo Records, (identified by the matrices; S-9375, S-9376) Back cover without MCA Distribution logo. First pressing is here: [r=581152] (MCA logo on rear, "anti-parent" sticker on some "UNI/4" matrices). First version recut/reissue is here: [r=1696396] (No MCA logo, "Kendun" matrices).

Housed in a heavy pasteboard/tip-on style cover (cardboard colored inside, not white). Some copies also came in a regular non-paste on cover, possibly after they ran out of paste on stock. Some copies have the labels reversed. On some pressings vinyl appears to be purple if held under strong light. Track A2 is written on the center label: 'Spray Paint The Walls'. Track A6 is written on the center label: 'Thirsty & Miserable'. "Thanks Merrill" for track A1.

Repress

Later repress with light blue/green labels. The easiest way to identify this pressing vs. the 1989 repress - [r374293] - is to look at the back cover. This pressing does not have a white mark visible between the Henry Rollins and Dez Cadena credits, and the barcode box is slightly bigger at the bottom than the 1989 repress. Runouts - "kdisc" is stamped, rest is etched.
