Background notes

Archive material and source history

White Flag formed in San Francisco in 1998 with Patty Schemel on drums, who had previously played with Hole. The band's sound pulled from alternative rock and punk, with Schemel's drumming driving their live shows. Their song "12 O'Clock High" became a notable single for them.

Guitarist Melissa Auf der Maur, who would later work with The Smashing Pumpkins, and bassist Kellii Scott rounded out the lineup. They released three albums over about seven years, including tracks like "Butterfly Revolution" and "Face Down." The band faced some criticism early on about being connected to Schemel's past with Hole, but they kept making music on their own terms.
