I don't know if it's possible to be any more bad ass than Bad Brains. A bunch of dreadlocked Rastafarians who break open the DC punk scene and become some of the most skilled, most influential punk rockers ever. And they still played reggae too. And their name is Bad Brains. Credit to Flawless Hustle for spotting this one.PigeonsandPlanes

Maybe because it's been sooo long since they had a quality release, but more likely it's because they got some nice rasta vibes working in this one as well as the thrashers, complete with Dr. Know's menacing and crunchy lines (I always kinda feel like I'm listening to a hardcore and scarier version of that sound you'd hear in the Jaws film just as someone was about to be torn up).I did a brief ...

Bad Brains Live At CBGB 1982
over 2 years ago

This track is from the live recording that was made during a special Xmas show Bad Brains did in 1982 at the legendary CBGBs.

What I also love about them is that in between the fits of fury, they go into the mellow reggae music and it not only sounds great, it helps eve...

One Sunny Summers Day...
over 2 years ago

I got into Bad Brains long after they were first popular. I first found out about them after I bought the punk rock photo compilation book "Fuck You Heroes" by Glen E Friedman. I saw the band in many photos. They looked wild and really interesting. I went to my local music store one day in 1995 and picked up my first BB album: God of Love. I got home and put it on my CD player one sunny summer ...
