Buen Hardcore de finales de los 70's Don't Need It (lyrics) Don't need no ivory liquid. Don't want no afro sheen. Don't need the latest fashions. Don't want my hair to smell clean. I've got my automotion, I've got that superpotion. And if you think I'm going crazy, Then pretty baby it might be true babe. We don't need no first class. Don't need no second class. All of the best-of, all that can kiss my ass. I've got my claim to fame, I've got that positive flame. And if you think I'm going crazy, Then pretty baby it might be you babe.

Bad Brains
| Name | Bad Brains |
|---|---|
| Background | group_or_band |
| Alias | Soul Brains |
| Origin | Washington, D.C., USA |
| Genre | Hardcore punk, though the band's members objected to this term to describe their music. They are also an adept reggae band, while later recordings featured elements of other genres like funk, heavy metal, hip-hop and soul. Bad Brains are also notable as religious followers of the Rastafari movement. |

| Title | "Pay to Cum" |
| Description | Sample of "Pay to Cum" by the Bad Brains from Pay to Cum single (1980) |
| Format | Ogg}} |
The band developed an early reputation in Washington D.C., due in part to the relative novelty of an entirely African-American band playing punk rock, but also due to their high-energy performances and undeniable talent.
In 1979, Bad Brains found themselves the subject of an unofficial ban among many Washington D.C. area clubs and performance venues (later addressed in their song, "Banned in D.C."). The band subsequently relocated to New York City. The title track's video was shown on MTV's then-new 120 Minutes program, for which the band appeared in promotional footage. Despite the success of I Against I, Bad Brains broke up again after spending most of 1987 touring.
The group signed with Caroline Records in the late 1980s to release Quickness in 1989.
Bad Brains were plagued by internal tensions nearly from their beginning. Aside from the problems with H.R., who sometimes refused to perform at scheduled concerts, he and his younger brother, drummer Earl Hudson, also wanted to devote the band strictly to reggae, while Dr. Know and Darryl Jenifer were increasingly interested in heavy metal music. H.R. was replaced by Taj Singleton for the Quickness tour.
H.R. experienced financial problems after an unsuccessful European tour with the group Human Rights, while touring replacement singer Taj Singleton did not fit well with Bad Brains. H.R. and Earl both returned to the band. After the Quickness tour, H.R. and Earl left once again and H.R. was replaced by former Faith No More vocalist Chuck Mosley. Soon afterwards, Bad Brains broke up yet again.
In 1990, Bad Brains backed longtime friend, fan, and protege Henry Rollins on a cover version of The MC5's "Kick out the Jams". The recording appears on the soundtrack to the film Pump Up the Volume.
Lineup change and reunions (1993–2000)
As bands influenced by Bad Brains (such as Living Colour and Fishbone) enjoyed commercial success, Dr. Know was approached by Epic Records in 1993, offering the band a major-label record deal. The former Cro-Mags drummer Mackie Jayson (who had played as a session musician on Quickness), and vocalist Israel Joseph I joined at this time. Rise was released in 1993.With the original band back together for the first time in five years, Bad Brains signed to the Maverick Records label for the 1995 release God of Love.
Two years later, the band worked together to remaster some early studio recordings which were then released as the EP The Omega Sessions by Victory Records. In 1999, the original lineup toured under the name Soul Brains.
Two documentaries of the band are currently in production as well as a film documentary focusing on H.R.
Bad Brains were planning a three-date tour of Australia in June 2010, but were forced to cancel due to health reasons.
As of March 2011, according to Blabbermouth.net, Bad Brains have begun work on new material for their next album, which is due for release later this year.
