This is the first Bad Brains song I ever listened to, which was today. I didn't like it. But it was stuck in my head all day, and I guess now I like it. Thats weird.
Gosh, I’m 34 now, living in Indonesia. I just found out this band after i saw Thomas Pridgen’s t-shirt. It blow my mind!!! Wish i discover them years earlier.
Never saw this until today and I bought the CD when it first came out in 1995! My introduction to Bad Brains.....why wasn't this video played much? Love it and still love the album....played it just yesterday!
Saw them first time on this tour, quickness and many times after, hr alwas brought it when i went, saw hr solo before this this at lamores brooklyn and lots of times in the 90s at the wetlands nyc, he was always hanging out downstairs and smoking with anyone and talking crazy, back when it wasnt a big deal to smoke weed at the wetlands
bad brains are awesome !!! 😈😈☺ . what they do is believing in thereself and there music . wish i had see them live in the earleyr days . such a passif agresifitty mixed with happiness and hope . fucking great !!!!
Haha. I smoked a fat spliff with HR in small room full of several others including a few of my friends and their bandmates as we were all gathered backstage at the Masquerade music club in Atlanta, Georgia waaaay back sometime in the late 1980s, I believe. I wish I could recall the exact year. That show was so incredibly intense and the stage and venue was so utterly tiny.
I feel ya. Finding it difficult to relate with my boyfriend on this subject. He's a musician & would appreciate Bad Brains. But has no interest in listening to, or learning about them. He's beautifully insightful. I believe he'd receive blessings & enlightenment with the influence of Bad Brain's legendary talent.
Well during the first wave of punk there was an all black punk band called "pure hell" they made it on (the equivalent to the billboards top 100 songs in the USA) on of their song made it to number 10 in the UK. No one really knows about them before they got signed the producers wanted them to switch to making Motown instead of punk. So when they refused the producer threw away all of their recorded music (because they had the Rights to it) But the story gets better Eventually Henry Rollins from black flag discovered one of their tracks and bought the Rights to their music back and helped them get inducted into the African American museum of pop culture
@eatherdrive HIGH FIVE! Without Bad Brains there wouldn't be a shit load of groups! It's cool, my son thought Carlos Santana was a "New Guitarist" on the scene at one point. Don't get too angry. Hell, some folks think Stevie Ray Vaughn is the king of Blues Guitar.
This album was released on Madonna's Maverick Records (she founded the label and signed them). Teamed back with producer Ric Ocasek of The Cars who did the Brains' classic early records. They toured with Beastie Boys, until HR smashed a guy in the face with a mic stand.
Yeah, I'm reading H.R.'s book right now. H.R. was the bands greatest asset, and what really also kept them from reaching stardom. He refused to sign record contracts their entire career until the Maverick one, he quit the band more so many times, and he got in fights. He didn't like doing rock/metal/punk after the first album but really only wanted to do Reggae, but it was Daryl and Dr. Know who wanted to keep doing the punk/rock thing.
HR is one troubled individual who seems more at peace when he's in his reggae side band. But when he's with the BRAIN'S he seems like he's out of place and fighting demons.
@@michaelj.ingram7421 I was at that show, in Boston. It was insane because there was a rumor that the Beastie Boys ( who were there ) were going to play after Bad Brains. After the incident and the band all walked off stage, we all stood around for another half hour or so waiting to see the Beasties. When they finally kicked us all out it got even weirder, because there was a crowd gathering outsside waiting o get in for the club's gay dance party! What a nutty night.
Listening to their albums in order from the oldest to the newest, it is easy to see how they have evolved wonderfully. After Quickness and Rise, I don't think it is wrong to say that this album is one of their peaks. I hope that we will be able to hear their current state sometime in the future.
Man in 2017. I was invited to go meet them at the red room lounge by someone who's keeping the punk rock scene alive (johnae Whitaker) she would bring so many punk bands to our area. In 2017 I opted to go to trashbash instead of meeting the lead singer of bad brain's. I will forever kick myself in the ass over that.
What a mega force to be reckoned with god of love, love is the answer . Bad brains,will always rock for light with the quickness and still even as veterns in this thing called music will and can blow any new Jack butt off the stage cuz i and i will survive and the meek shall inherit the earth time too build a nation. Time too fly the soul craft and heed the prophet's eye when the sacred love starts to share her secret 77 and when she is calling you, you better pick up and leave this Babylon only to find yourself returning to heaven. Know it was this thunder and lightning known as the band bad brains from the district of Colombia who were once banned that made all the differnce and remember to keep your p.m.a. (positive mental atittude). Sail on cuz I too am a member of the f.v.k. (fearless campus killers) these are Coptic times indeed.
the band that changed my life RESPECT xx
dude - they changed the lives of so many people.
PMA Every time I hear them it's instant. Fight the good fight, don't give in to those who want negatives.
One of the best albums ever. A collection of punk some reggae and insane thrash metal. Where was Bad Brains Grammy when they released this album?
Meh, disagree
@Chalkdust Quickness was the peak IMHO.
Madonna paid for this record
No, not even respecting that. I against I, self titled bad brains, rock for light, rise, or black dots but not this!
@@thepersonontheroofonmath2246 Sorry - Rise was the weakest album they put out - but definitely, one of the greatest bands ever.
These guys are the coolest punk band
One of my faves by them. Nice groove. Killer guitar solo too.
The greatest rock n roll band ever to step onto a stage!
I wish I had heard of them in time to see them in the 80's.
coreycox2345 They were amazing! Saw them at CBGB & The Ritz a few times.
That might be a bit much
You mean Punk/Reggae band of all time!
Rock n roll? They're hardcore punk
This is the first Bad Brains song I ever listened to, which was today. I didn't like it. But it was stuck in my head all day, and I guess now I like it. Thats weird.
It's so catchy i can't believe this wasnt an even greater hit
Their earlier stuff is way better
@@scottistrad it's your personal taste. I do love some of their earlier stuff too though.
I like their metal sound more than harDCore punk or whatever
Welcome
The most underrated Bad Brains album ever! Yeah,I said It. I love this fucking album.
Dale M. Haskell underrated for sure
People hate on later BB way too much. Sure, it ain't the ROIR sessions but it still kicks ass.
This is actually a great album
You must be a total loser. Hot garbage song on a hot garbage album.
This is HRs favourite BB album
Dr. Know slays!
That guitar solo tho.... Dr Know knows... ❤

Gosh, I’m 34 now, living in Indonesia. I just found out this band after i saw Thomas Pridgen’s t-shirt. It blow my mind!!! Wish i discover them years earlier.

November 5th 2020. God of Love. Goddess of Love. The Species may hang on after all. Thanx & Bodhisattva 4 The Bad Brains !!
One of the godfathers of NYHC.

Saw them on this tour and HR was already batshit crazy at this point. Some good moments on the album though.
He was not 'batshit crazy' he was suffering from undiagnosed Bipolar syndrome.
Love this whole album!!!
I love it 💕💕💕💕😘😘😘
The singer has the most legit dreads ever.
Great track 🔥 great album by Amazing band ! 🔥🔥
Childhood classic💎💎💎💎💎💎💎

Bad brains es la escuela de jeneraciones del hardcore punki
I can't kick it with weirdos who don't love Bad Brains.

He's beautifully insightful. I believe he'd receive blessings & enlightenment with the influence of Bad Brain's legendary talent.
@@saradavis4147 What ever happened to that guy????
No way it’s a coincidence that my own summer and god of love have practically the same video style
An all black rock band? I like that!
Courrral I know right something that is a little different but good and cool about these guys
And they're one of the most influential punk rock bands of all time and they even made it into the rock n roll Hall of fame

More than a rock band
@@steelekosak8159 best band EVER
@yamhead79 Huh??? Without Bad Brains, there would be no POD, dude.
Calling Dr.Know paging Dr.Know major riffing and loud raw soling shred needed in room 4 floor 9 🔊🔊🔊🩻🩹🩺🎙️🎚️🎚️🎛️🚨🎸🎼
Holy brains, namaste ... )JO

Alex Jones loves this jam!!!!!
me encanta!

He's got me thinking.... what would BB have sounded throwing HR and Horace Andy together? Might be fire!
Wow pretty sure I've never seen Earl without a hat before.

A skinhead spit in H.R.'s face, and H.R. smashed IT with his mic. As a result, Madonna dropped them from Maverick.

@@mtrich8113 HR solo act was incredible. Album 'Charge' is a jewel.
pedazo de video
Rock on
HR was still singing and sounding good but it wasn’t long before he let that go.

MOV just released this on green vinyl!!! SOLD!!!
Strong 💪🏿
Jaaaaah. Okaaay?

No, we must spend $500 a week on gas and all my friends are walking
que banda do caralho.....
O vocalista é muitoooo doidooooo.
Djent
impossible to find the lyrics of this song
How many albums do these guys even have any body know?
9 albums.
What the hell are the Lyrics to this song!? Been looking everywhere for the verse. Can anyone enlighten me?
Greg Bear thank you someone else who agrees that what the hell is he saying in parts of the song
Greg Bear what was that he has a good night 😴💤🌙
"Give I child Jah Jah Bessed our king. Under Ham Shem and Japhet salvation" Something like that.
LIL JON!!!
Kkkkkkkkkkkk,yes.
I want to be as crazy as HR one day.
no, you don't
Here because of Randy Blythe.
rrassstaa

Please don’t butcher their name like that. Bad Brains are a legendary music group, not an arbitrary, singular, possessive noun.
This reminds me of "I like dirt"
I've had the hardest time trying to find lyrics for this song. Still unsuccessful.
Ham, Shem, and Japhet salvation
Wow Asap Rocky took this video style and Zombie Juice took this guys style period.
This guy must be from Flatbush ✌😤💨
They're from D.C.
Nope all are from Prince George's County, MD. and S.E. Washington D.C. area . Respectfully known as the DMV.
What a mega force to be reckoned with god of love, love is the answer .

Why did you change vampire to campus?
That makes no sense.
an also korn.
Classics🤌
Does anyone have the lyircs? I can't find them online
I read them along time ago when I had the record. Something like: "Give to Jah, King Alpha"
A skinhead spit in H.R.'s face and he smashed him with his mic. As a result, Madonna dropped them from her Maverick Label.
This is so bad. Not a big surprise it's Bad Brains.
