hardcore punk pioneersBad Brains . It is a mostly instrumental dub album featuring a large amount ofreggae ,ska , and dub elements with only occasional forays intohard rock and punk music, as opposed to their other albums which are the other way around. The voice of band vocalistH.R. does appear on the album, albeit in sampled form from previous albums.The album includes new songs alongside completely revamped remakes of a few Bad Brains classics such as 1983's "How Low Can a Punk Get?", two versions of the "
Quickness " classic "Gene Machine," and adancehall reggae version of the usually mellow "I and I Survive." This is their first album in 7 years.Track listing
