Bad Brains

Fifteen tracks of whiplash-inducing hardcore punk played with impossible precision. A raw, tape-saturated document of the band that redefined speed and spirituality.

An explosive burst of positive mental attitude delivered with terrifying speed and technical mastery.

Moments Worth Listening For
the whiplash transition from the breakneck speed of 'Banned in D.C.' to the heavy, half-time groove of the bridge
the sheer impossibility of the drum fills on 'Pay to Cum' which sound like a machine gun being fired in a small room
the sudden, cooling relief of the dub-reggae track 'Jah Calling' appearing amidst the high-velocity punk chaos
