Anti-Flag Share Live Video For “Death Of A Nation” From Upcoming Live Album

In support of their forthcoming live record Live Vol. 1 – which hits stores January 20th (Donald Trump’s first day in office) – political punks Anti-Flag have just dropped a brand new video for their track “Death Of A Nation.”

“We chose ‘Death Of A Nation’ as the lead track off of Live Vol. 1 for a number of reasons,” says bassist/vocalist Chris #2. “The foremost being the parallels of emotions to the elections of George W. Bush and Donald Trump. The anxiety, fear and compassion we have for our brothers and sisters of marginalized and non-binary communities. The song was written as a call to arms to rebuild. The work needs done, we must come together to not allow sexism, racism, trans and homophobic bigotry to become normalized." 

In regards to the new clip, the longtime bassist touched on it briefly saying:  

“[Live Vol. 1] itself covers the entire history of the band, so the video does as well. There’s footage from some of our first shows to our most recent, further reiterating the idea that punk rock exists as a space where we are free to be ourselves. That the solace we seek is achievable.”
