Brigada Flores Magon was a French punk band from Paris . The band members came from the militant punk and redskin scene and played street punk with lyrics that were often political, influenced by anarchism and revolutionary ideas. The band's name pays homage to the Mexican revolutionary Ricardo Flores Magón , who, in their opinion, was one of the fathers of anti-imperialism and thought leaders of anarchism. They released four studio albums and, according to their own account, played over 500 concerts in different countries.
