In the late 70s, Rollins entered the punk rock scene as a roadie for bands in the DC area. After being the substitute lead singer for Teen Idles, he founded State of Alert, releasing the EP "No Policy" in 1981. His breakthrough came when he joined Black Flag in 1981, becoming the band's frontman. Black Flag's albums, including "Damaged" and "My War," reflected Rollins' intense stage persona.

While still part of Black Flag, Rollins went on solo spoken word tours, releasing albums like "Short Walk on a Long Pier" in 1985. The Rollins Band, formed in 1987, toured extensively and released several albums, making the singer immensely popular. His spoken word albums, such as "Sweatbox" and "Talk is Cheap" were a huge success.

After gaining recognition through his music, Rollins appeared in TV shows like "Sons of Anarchy" and "The Henry Rollins Show." He performed various roles in films like "Heat" and "Bad Boys II." In 2004, he became a familiar voice on the radio, hosting shows like "Harmony in My Head" and "KCRW." He even started a podcast with his manager, titled "Henry & Heidi," receiving positive reviews from Rolling Stone and The A.V. Club.

Rollins has written several books, including "Black Coffee Blues," "Do I Come Here Often?," "Pissing in the Gene Pool, Bang!," "Art to Choke Hearts," "See a Grown Man Cry," "Now Watch Him Die," "Smile, You're Traveling," "Get in the Van," and "Eye Scream" among others. Moreover, for the audiobook version of the 2006 novel "World War Z," he voiced the character of T. Sean Collins.

In 1999, Rollins sold his LA residence for $740,000 and purchased a new home worth $2.2 million. In 2021, he listed his Hollywood Hills property for sale at $3.9 million. The residence featured a 60-foot living room, a formal dining room, an open living area, an eat-in kitchen, a vocal recording booth, studio spaces, and a sauna room.

Rollins identifies neither as atheist nor spiritual. Despite lifelong bachelorhood, he maintains close bonds, particularly with Ian MacKaye and William Shatner, which often raises a question about his sexuality. He is a fervent human rights advocate, championing gay rights after a high school classmate's tragic bullying incident.

His anti-homophobia stance is evident in his spoken word tours, promoting justice and equality. Passionate about supporting troops, Rollins toured with the USO during the Iraq War. Furthermore, his activism extends to freeing the "West Memphis Three" and endorsing cannabis legalization.
