"The Press Corpse" turns up on For Blood and Empire, the sixth studio album from American punk rock band Anti-Flag, released in March 2006, its title a grim pun on the press corps. The whole band is in on it: Justin Sane sings lead and plays guitar beside Chris Head, Chris #2 plays bass, Pat Thetic drums, the other three add their voices, and all four share the writing credit.
The album was the band's first for RCA Records, a move that drew criticism from plenty of people given the anti-corporate message Anti-Flag had started out with. Like every song on the record except "State Funeral" and "Cities Burn", this one gets its own short essay in the CD booklet laying out what inspired it.
