my favourite Bad Brains moment is on Dillinger Four's live album. Hallelujah!

never dug em. But they do have a song about how homosexuals are responsible for AIDS...

Just don't buy a H.R. solo album!

"never dug em. But they do have a song about how homosexuals are responsible for AIDS..."

which song is that?

WE GOT THAT ATTITUDE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

fuckin one of my favourite fuckin bands ever

fuck i woulda killed to see em in 84 after i against i

or even after the first record

I saw them in 1995, they weren't bad then.

which song is that?

I can't remember the name. Gimmie a sec & i'll find out.

i saw them on the quickness tour - they were pretty average at that stage

heard some stories about them playing in the uk around 83 or 84 - hr doing backflips whilst stood between two coppers who were trying to close the show done

the live record i have is pretty tops

FVK Live in 85

bad brains are fucken awesome! totally awesome musicians. i saw at ev's when they toured with the meanies even though they didnt have HR singing they were still really good

even on a shit day they would still totally destroy all those other shit head hardcore bands (except black flag)

on that american hardcore doco

all the dudes still say bad brains were THE best

and heaven help u if you're opening for them

the thing was they were all actually really good musicians prior to being in bad brains they were all in jazz and funk bands.

"Pay To Cum" is still one of my favourite songs. I'm not usually that impressed by musicianship, but they play this song with such precision. It's melodic, hard as a Motorhead tune but yet groovy like the JB's and clocks in at 1 min 41 sec. It's just a perfect pop song. Fuck, I think I'm going to be as bold to say that it's my favourite song ever!...for the time being.

"never dug em. But they do have a song about how homosexuals are responsible for AIDS..."

That song was about how Minor Threat was responsible for AIDS

That song was about how Minor Threat was responsible for AIDS

I think FVK is my favourite BB song.

just bought the Live At CBGBs DVD. Let you know....

i've got that on order too... here is the full thing viewable online, fuckin' rad:-

NEW ALBUM

Original Bad Brains To Reform By Inny

Legendary proto-hardcore act Bad Brains plan a new album with the original line-up.

The pioneering reggae hardcore punks have been playing sporadically over the last couple of decades. They formed in 1977 and revolutionized punk rock at the time. Being an all-black punk band was a revelation at the time, and they used their heritage to bring Rastafarian religious iconography, jazz, funk and reggae to the burgeoning chaos of hardcore punk.

Bad Brains first broke up in 1984, due to singer HR’s volatile temperament, and it kept them in limbo for the rest of their career. Many splits and line-up changes followed. Their most recent album was 2003’s ‘I And I Survived’, which was mostly dub and reggae.

The spark for the new album was their recent farewell shows for legendary New York club CBGBs. Guitarist Dr. Know told Billboard that the shows were “tremendous.” He continued, “It was really an honour and a privilege to have so many good friends and see them all. We were back together for a week; we hadn't been together for a long time."

He promised that the new album will be a mix of old and new style Bad Brains, and it will be produced by Beastie Boy Adam Yauch, aka MCA. They also announced during the CBGBs shows that they plan a new tour titled The Re-Ignition Tour.

Build a Nation was produced by Adam Yauch of the Beastie Boys. It reunites band members H.R., Dr. Know, Daryl Jenifer and Earl Hudson for the first time in more than a decade.

Pay To Cum Along - Millions of Dead Cops

We don't need your Jah's fascist doctrine

We don't need to be so uptight

Hide your eyes from the truth

Not to be free but to be right

New World Order of old world lies

Jesus dons a new disguise

When people gave you homes and love

You gave back hate from high above

Couldn't help us fight the fight

Get together black and white

Returned all support with abuse

And intolerance beyond excuse

Black hardcore, hot and mad

Such good lyrics, it's so sad

Could have taken up a stand

Been the most important band

Looking out for number one holiest of guests

Smoking crucial herb while ignoring all their debts

They have shown for all to see, being musically blessed

Makes you no better than anyone else

Frail and human like all the rest

Oh well, we tell you what it cost

We'll never know what was lost

Your selfishness has been a burn

A lesson bitter we had to learn

We don't need no Jah jive security

We don't need to be so uptight

See you hide your eyes from the truth

Not to be free, but to be right

Rah.

In appreciation.

i love bad brains but mdc fkn owned them on that one

I've flicked off Chinese Demo-crazy (you snooze, you lose) in disgust.

It's Rock for Light time now. FVK.

About 8 years ago there was a little add in the local paper saying badbrains where playing at the newtown r.s.l... i went in and asked for tickets but they didnt have a clue what was going on and didnt have bad brains playing...so i went home and sure enough it was in the paper and i hadnt imagined it...i never got to the bottom of that weirdness.. i can only assume it was some kind of prank.

'Black Dots' was my first Bad Brains cd, still my favourite...

...oh and I played drums in forementioned cover band...
