Bad Brains Lyrics

Back in Washington D.C. in 1977, four black guys formed a
jazz/funk outfit called Mind Power. "All the while we was
jazz, we wanted to innovate," HR says. "We wanted to be
part of something new and different and real. We was
continually seeking. And then I saw the Sex Pistols album,
and I said, 'BOOM! This is it!" The credit for introducing
safety pins and punk rock goes to Sid McCray, an early
vocalist for the band.

Influenced by the Pistols, Eater and the Clash, as well as

------ About the song House Of Suffering performed by Bad Brains

One of my all time BB faves. For the first time on i against i, they were able to balance the spirit of rebellion with the higher level of musicianship that they were coming into with rasta. It was totally unique & it's (thankfully) never been duplicated. My favorite line is where HR refers to his "spiritualogic grin" & relates it to his connection to "grace". It's pure poetry (as usual) & an everyday thing for me!

One of the best songs ever. | Reviewer: www.theaudiogoldrush.com

------ About the song House Of Suffering performed by Bad Brains

It's a long list, but this song is on it. A great moment in American history, when a young D.C. based jazz band found it's way into hardcore punk while embracing the Rastafarian faith. Hearing is believing?

The traps of America and the inherent disconnect. | Reviewer: moxley

------ About the song I Against I performed by Bad Brains

I think that the song is about the inherent cognitive dissonance in America...The disconnect between what people think of as America and the reality of..well, the reality (aka the lies the media and government perpetuate, the American dream, all of that stuff - the stuff we all want to believe, but that isn't really true).

It's talking about how materialism is a trap, how nobody is out to help their fellow man, they are too caught up in the rat race and material distractions.....it's a beautiful, powerful, anthemic song.

The Brains Spit Hot Fire | Reviewer: Varnzo

------ About the song I performed by Bad Brains

Simply untouchable. This song epitomizes punk music/ethos as does the band themselves in so many ways. One of their best and up there with Pay to Cum. A masterwork. Covered well by Snapcase on Never Give In tribute cd.

------ About the song We Will Not performed by Bad Brains

This is one of the Bad Brains' best songs. The album "Rock for Light" which is the album where you find this song is THE Bad Brains album to have if you're only gonna buy one (but you're gonna want to have them all). I think it is about to resist and defeat sin (Babylon) and H.R's throat sings/screams/shouts out this message with great impact. Great guitar-play by Dr. Know as well.
