Lame Brains
Richard Harrington, The Washington Post, 30 July 1995
IN THE LATE '70s, Washington's Bad Brains pioneered a style of speedy hard-core punk that is now a commercial juggernaut for young bands such as Green Day, Offspring and Rancid. Having also inspired the black rock and funk metal movements of the '80s, Bad Brains should be one of the best-known bands in America.
