Die for the Government
Die for the Government is the debut album by the U.S. punk rock band Anti-Flag, released in 1996. After this album, bassist Andy Flag played with Anti-Flag on their EP North America Sucks, but left soon after as they couldn't get along as a band. The CD booklet bids farewell to Andy Flag.
The front cover gives the title "Die for the Government", but side of the CD reads "Die for Your Government". Also the "title track" is actually named You've Got to Die for the Government.
