In 1993 the Wu-Tang Clan redefined hip-hop with their gritty debut Enter the Wu-Tang (36 Chambers). With the proliferation of a whole slew of questionable solo projects from group members Raekwon (Immobilarity) and RZA (Digital Bullet--huh?) to a recently slapped together Ol' Dirty Bastard greatest-hits compilation, everybody's fave rap group have been on autopilot. On Iron Flag, the rap assassins from Staten Island give you sharp reminders of what made them so brilliant. Knob twiddler extraordinaire RZA mishmashes obscure soul riffs and horn blasts on "Uzi (Pinky Ring)" and "Rules," upping the mixing-console ante. "Back in the Game" brilliantly utilizes the ubiquitous love croons of Ronald Isley over a sparse piano loop and scattered acoustic guitars, while Flavor Flav's guest rants on "Soul Power (Black Jungle)" take this one over the top. Sure there are a few toss-away tracks, like "Chrome Wheels," where the Clan lazily rip misogynist rhymes over an uninspiring Alexander O'Neal sample, but eclectic, low-bpm numbers like "Babies" more than make up for the crew's few shortcomings. Ol' Dirty Bastard, the only Wu banger who couldn't record on this album, is in some correctional facility smiling right now. --Dalton Higgins

4 out of 5 stars Not they best.......2006-07-04

This album was pretty solid. If you compare it to the early releases except for the W this is nothin at all. After a few listens it grew on me. I just feel the production could have been better, but since I listen more for mic skills thats the reason i enjoy this album. This album will appeal to diehard fans more.

4 out of 5 stars Didnt like it at first..........2006-05-02

..didn't like this album at first but I've been listening to it all the way through a few times over the last few days. First got it about a year ago so I was surprised to find myself liking it. Some of the lyrics aren't as good as some other Wu-Tang stuff but the whole thing is pretty tight.

Most of the members shine throughout the album actually, especially GZA, Inspectah Deck, Method Man and U-God.

Beats aren't typical Wu-Tang stuff but they're banging, some of them may have to grow on you though. I hated Chrome Wheels, Radioactive and Soul Power at first for example. Overall it probably has to grow on you, but its a really nice album.

Top 5 songs:
Uzi
Radioactive
Ya'll Been Warned
The W (Bonus track, full version of interlude from The W)

2 out of 5 stars Dissapointing Wu-Album.......2006-03-21

as it was written: Wu-Tang ain't nuthin to f... with.
BUT this album was not good maybe 3 above average tracks and the rest are average and nothing special at all, not bad not good...

3 out of 5 stars Wu Flavor Gets a Twist.......2006-02-23

One can't help but compare this album to the Wu's previous, more generally accepted efforts; however, this one stands mostly on its own. Iron Flag shows both an evolution and an internalization of the Wu sound: the traditional Wu-Tang sound has come to an experimental point, and whether one likes the album or not really depends on one's own taste. None of the tracks are inherently bad; rather some just may be harder to get into than others depending on the person. By all means check it out, but if you're a Wu beginner, start elsewhere.
