Praise

Barred for Life is a book with heart. It also avoids the trap that similar single-subject photo books fall into. There’s actually a narrative arc, thanks to a series of interviews with former band members interspersed throughout, telling the story of the band and its fans.”
—BlackBook 

“Most band tattoos look like complete shit. But Black Flag transcends this rule because even the shoddiest stick ‘n’ poke versions of the punk band’s logo, four rectangular bars, somehow always look great. Having a crooked and faded set of the bars myself, this compilation reminds me of how meeting others who’ve defaced themselves similarly often means meeting your new best friend or future wife.”
VICE Magazine

“While the book is packed with insightful interviews and tales from inked fans and band members, it’s Castaldi and Ebersole’s beautiful black and white photos that are most impressive, and leap kicking and screaming from the pages.”
