Our Take

BAD BRAINS Rock For Light (Yellow Vinyl)

The Bad Brains are back with a splash of colour, releasing their classic album "Rock For Light" on vibrant yellow vinyl. And let me tell you, this album is anything but mellow yellow.

From the moment the needle drops, you're hit with a wall of energy that's as intense as a double espresso shot. The punk rock influence is undeniable, with lightning-fast guitar riffs and heart-pounding drums that will have you pogoing around your living room in no time.

But what sets Bad Brains apart from the rest is their reggae-infused grooves that add a surprising twist to their hardcore sound. Tracks like "At the Movies" and "Sacred Love" showcase the band's ability to seamlessly blend genres, creating a sonic experience that's as unpredictable as a British summer.

Lead singer H.R.'s vocals are a force to be reckoned with, switching effortlessly between aggressive shouts and smooth crooning. It's like listening to Bob Marley fronting a punk band, and trust me, it works.

Overall, "Rock For Light" on yellow vinyl is a must-have for any music lover looking to add some sunshine to their collection. So grab a copy, crank up the volume, and let the Bad Brains take you on a wild ride that's bound to leave you feeling energised and ready to take on the world. Cheers, mate.

About the artist

Bad Brains

BAD BRAINS: The Pioneering Punks with a Sonic Riot in Their Souls In the turbulent waters of the punk rock sea, one band has always stood out like a neon-lit sore thumb: Bad Brains. Hailing from the concrete jungle of Washington, D.C., this quartet of musical misfits burst onto the scene in the late '70s with a sonic assault that left audiences bewildered, exhilarated, and slightly bruised. Fronted by the enigmatic HR, whose vocal range could shatter glass and souls in equal measure, Bad Brains quickly gained a reputation for their lightning-fast riffs, blistering solos, and incendiary live shows that left fans in a state of euphoria and exhaustion. Their influence on the punk and hardcore scenes cannot be overstated, as they seamlessly blended elements of reggae, metal, and funk into their frenetic sound. But behind the chaos and cacophony lies a band of skilled musicians who could switch from breakneck speed to soulful grooves in the blink of an eye. Guitarist Dr. Know's virtuosic playing, bassist Darryl Jenifer's thunderous low end, and drummer Earl Hudson's powerhouse beats all combined to create a sound that was both ferocious and funky. Despite their tumultuous history and internal conflicts, Bad Brains have left an indelible mark on the music world, inspiring countless bands and artists to push the boundaries of what punk rock can be. So next time you feel the urge to stage dive into the mosh pit or start a revolution in your living room, crank up some Bad Brains and let the sonic riot take hold.
