Bad Brains can be credited with inventing hardcore, and along with Minor Threat, they proved that you could play incredibly loud and incredibly fast and still be very musical and intelligent. Not only are Bad Brains a great hardcore punk band, they're also a great reggae dub Band as the tracks "Jah Calling" and "I Love I Jah" prove. As for the punk tunes, you can't get any better than "Sailin' On," "Pay To Cum," "Attitude," etc. No other Band can really match the intensity of these guys. The sound quality on the self-titled release can be a little poor at times, but the songs themselves make you forget those problems. H.R.'s sometimes high-pitched vocals might take some time to get used to, but in the end, this should become a favorite record of yours. Every fan of hardcore/punk should own this. Signature punk album This album is a rollercoaster. The fastest punk/hardcore songs (i.e.: "sailin' on" , "don't need it", "banned in d.c.", etc) are the steep downhill drops. The few calm reggae masterpieces are the slow, steady uphill climbing sections before you reached the top and go whirling dowhill again. All of this album is enchanting. The only thing a first listener must get used to is the at-times-high-pitched voice of H.R., which as you listen to the music more you learn to love. The power cord usage and solos of guitarist Dr. Know prove his talent. This musicianship equally matches the throbbing basslines and intense drumming of Darryl and Earl. If you respect the best of the best music, the truest hardcore punk, listen to this Bad Brains work and you'll be hooked. Every second of this roller coaster is well worth one's time. The best album by the Master Blasters Make no mistake, if you have never heard Bad Brains before, they are not for everyone. At times they can make bands like Black Flag sound like Destiny's Child, and this album will just plain kick your teeth in. The first thing that will grab you is Dr. Know's whirlwind guitar that carries you through their barrage of speed and thrash, but it's all held together by a terrific rhythm section. Bad Brains were influenced by reggae from the very start and it shows on their albums, there are a couple of reggae tunes. If you like it hardcore and haven't heard them yet, start with this one.
