Bad Brains - Right Brigade

[frozenmorale]

I like how both of the top rated comments complain about mentioning Green Day and yet they are mentioning green day! lol

[bosshog7169]

This is Green Day right? They looked tanner back then.

[almostcutmyhair101]

777 and 7 likes dislikes :)

[tommy0995]

right on fuck green day in thier stupid assses this is reral punk rock bitch recognize

[Moronisaurus]

Awesome song :)

[MrMansonlover666]

Wow african american punk rockers, now were talking!!!!

[snoopatomicdog]

They are so influential. Rage Against the Machine, Pantera, Foo Fighters, Beastie Boys etc. all influence by them.

[headlockboy]

what is it if it's not punk? hardcore? spose music doesnt have to be classified right? unless you need to describe it to someone anyway.

[negatyve]

It started out like any Wednesday night. I went down to the ol jazz club to have a couple drinks and listen to motown revivalist bands. After Charlie Hustle and the Lap Kings, a band I never heard of, called Bad Brains, took the stage. Next thing you know, I had a gram of columbian marching powder coursing through my blood while I slammed this slut I just met against a dirty toilet stall divider. 9 months later, you were born! Your mother and I still go back there for dinner every anniversary.

[cubistblues]

Pre-Rasta - the best period. The irony of the Bad Brains is that as they became self-righteous & homophobic, they started drawing only sweaty, bald, shirtless dudes who liked to pile on top of each other to their shows. Women either stopped going or stood at the back of the room. In this New Wave period the crowds were really diverse and the band destroyed..

[tootonetommy]

AH...... the good old days!

[attilathefun1]

ha ha ha. green day, are you kidding me?? what are you 4 months old? green day got its name  when biily joe what the fuck got a rubber glove stuck up his ass when the drummer tried to use it as a condum. when they finally pulled the glove out, it was covered in green shit. and billy joe fuck hole said. " this is goona be a green day". go listen to real punk like terveet kadett asshole.

[211HighGravityLager]

if you are gonna talk about another band on a bad brains video the only acceptable band is Cro-Mags

[snoopatomicdog]

@211HighGravityLager Now you're talking!

[squeezybaby]

lol...... ummm...... I mean I like Greenday but.....how did they even come up in conversation on this thread? lol Bad Brains are legends.

[heklngjekl]

Fucking Legendary.

[BohemianConspiracy]

funny how i can more easily talk about britney spears here than green day... quite strange i guess..

[gta4cat]

greenday greenday greenday greenday greenday greenday greenday greenday greenday

greenday greenday greenday greenday greenday fucking green fucking day..

THERE SHUT THE FUCK UP and just agree that they're both good.

[kushasaures]

@gta4cat Jimi Hendrix is good too, but what does that have to do with Bad Brains? Neither are punk.

[tootonetommy]

@kushasaures you my friend are a DUMAS :)

[danielscissorhands]

@kushasaures Uhh.. you don't think Bad Brains are punk? I'm guessing you have not listened to their first two albums or Black Dots. lol.

[Crazymike00]

"Minor Threat and Bad Brains - Who could ask for more?"

[BohemianConspiracy]

@Crazymike00 I ask for much more... if they were the only good "rock" bands on earth ...i surely would be a rapper right now...

[05EVORS]

this was filmed when green day was 18mos old chewing in a piece off a mister pitatoe head toy.....you meant "green day took sounds from these guys"

[arcturianeye]

Love the Bad Brains..heard about them back in the 80´s but could not find the roir tape.

Now since 2007 I have the dvd and a few cd´s, so cheers and thanks for posting this.

[bathalax]

FUCK GREEN DAY

[lahardcore13]

These guys set the tone how american hardcore music would turn out..them and black flag

[mattdupont99]

These guys remind me of Green Day

[Likeyoucare]

His face at :07 after the "fucking Bad Brains" is priceless.

[gthaq]

this is the best punk band ever.

[YourMomsSTD]

Tottally awesome

[joey23125]

Who's Green Gay? I couldn't find their music anywhere? They must be good if they are being compared to Bad Brains.

[greendaykicksass1101]

[mademoisellepunk777]

@greendaykicksass1101 yes my gay friend you are

[greendaykicksass1101]

[jeezjacob]

Who the hell is Green Day?

[logick0]

@jeezjacob its another name for earth day maybe?

[SportyWizard18]

love the look on his face when the guy yells fuckin bad brains

[marcusguernsey]

all retard Green Day comments aside,if anyone of any substance could tell me what From My Picture in the Movies,Baby means, please let me know.these appears to be late 70 s,1980 at the latest i would say.and yes,HR s smile and skank in the beginning is the best.

[KrissKross97]

Green Day is Shit...

[111wa7]

fuck ya ill shit

[johnpie2]

I love bad brains AND green day.

[VoidmasterNX]

@johnpie2 So does that mean you hate yourself?

[Sk8Rat19100]

[RollTheCredits89]

That blonde in the crowds my mom...

[CammanderKhan]

@RollTheCredits89 your mom is awesome

[xsuchasinkerx]

bad brains doesnt suck though sorry you feel that way!

[coolmcsmoothbooty]

punk rock sucks!!!

[zeldaxcallxofxduty]

Hey, Im good as long as its punk! Greenday rocks, Bad Brains is even better...at least its not Nikki MinaJ or whatever.

[CammanderKhan]

@zeldaxcallxofxduty punk bands usually dont have their own broadway show....

[theskull42]

Hey guess what, I think Green Day are awesome, and I love the shit out of Bad Brains too. I'm a versatile motherfucker.

[schabanakxD]

@theskull42 greenday is gay... NYHC is the one and only...

[IndubitablyMe1988]

Stop talking about god damn Green Day...

[kisame500]

it's good ol' fashion punk like this that shits on green day and blink-182.

[wasted42db]

its a disgrace to even mention green day on this videos comments

[drunkpunk0069]

@wasted42db AGREED!!! they are the ones who shant be named!

[WeallRevive]

I dance like HR at shows :)..

[lewe18]

the studio version of this song is awesome compared to the live.

.someone told me that bad brains are one of the best live bands ever ..did that guy ever see hendrix or the who ..but still this song is fucking awesome ...punk for ever

green day should go fuck themselves

[NextOrcus]

Gayday humilhated....

[mresplendent]

HR looks a little like Otis Redding here.

[Zander666Punk]

fuck green day if you like real punk listen to the Sons of Bitches Firebaugh punk

none of that gay mainstream shit, good old garage punk

[Rigsbymortisful]

i love the way HR does his best Johnny Ramone splayed-legs stance in this.

awesome stuff - thanks for posting bertie!

[RANCIDROBO]

It may not be so evident in this song but Bad Brains had hands down the best rythem section in punk rock. Tight as fuck.

[evange03]

Why is anyone talking about green day on this video?

[mdgarmager]

1. Bad Brains 2. South African Crunkcore 3. Aboriginal Bullroar Dub 4. Papuan Folk Rocksteady 5. Chilean Murderfolk 6. The Black-Eyed Peas 7. New York City Hardcore. In that order.

[xAULISx]

1. Bad Brains 2. Other Music 3. EMO shit In that order

[IrishPunkRocka]

The begining is to die for. "Is that all you give yourselfs or what?!" "Fuckin Bad Brains!!!!" his smile is the best part haha

[fray93pumas19unam]

hhaha doin like a hardcore skank or sumthin

[wood1155]

never did get around to seeing these guys back in the 80's kind of a regret

[Velocityraptor1000]

the irony of everyone bagging on green day when billlie joe is a huge bad brains fan

[shrikechan]

@Velocityraptor1000 It doesn't matter who he's a fan of because his work doesn't reflect his influences, it's just not that good.

[beatthecrowd001]

H.R. AND two stepping at the begining like if you agree haah awesome

[SuperDeadhope]

all real punk music was invented before 1990 anything after that should have a different name.

[ProChoiceJesus]

@SuperDeadhope I respect & understand what you're saying, but I think it really died in 85. Everything after that was just.......? I just got through watching "American Hardcore" though, where punk's 85-86 death is described and emphasized so, so well, so I might be riding on a bit of bias from those in this awesome, landmark production. I highly recommend this movie to all even remotely interested in punk, hardcore, even metal or thrash, industrial. Hard music you like? You'll love this movie!

[SuperDeadhope]

@ProChoiceJesus yeah i was going to say earlier than that, but because im not the kind of person that keeps track of time i figured i better add a couple of years inorder to not exclude anybody. even though folks try to follow some sort of punk formula its just not the same + it was new back then, had never been done before, and it just felt flippin crazy. i will check out american hardcore!!!

[ProChoiceJesus]

@SuperDeadhope Cool. It's so eye-opening in the movie the way those in the bands describe the death of hardcore punk, the reasons so many bands just quit, & how & why everything just completely changed & died almost overnight, never to be raised to life again. It doesn't mean there's not good punk & hardcore right now & always will be, it doesn't mean that this art & music can't live again in a different form, it just means that punk rock as punk was invented and intended, died then.....forever.

[nathanielhvizdos]

forgotten times rememberred. did not see this show, but saw em at the old 930. da schlitz!!!

[lpokiiim]

best band in the wrld

[Smythe705]

Why are people talking about green day on bad brains video? Their a pop punk band and bad brains are a hardcore punk band. I won't hate on green day because for me they where a gateway band into real punk and hardcore music, but its pretty obvious that they are not a "punk" band and haven't been for a while

[Lyons194]

I'm sick of Green Day. They aren't sell-outs, it's just that they haven't aged well. They aren't dangerous enough to be called punk.

[Smythe705]

@Lyons194 Dangerous?

[greendaykicksass1101]

@Lyons194 i dont think you have seen the video of billie joe getting into a fight

[MrNufc89]

Green days shit infect your self with bad brains cerbral ballzy n shit instead

[XrellisX]

Witness the birth of Hardcore.

[maximus50238]

its kind of a bummer that theyre such homophobes. i feel like they represented a lot being a colored band. but then they just had other prejudices. great band, nonetheless. its just a shame that they had to hate on the big boys just because their singer was gay.

[emurami]

@way2eaz4u

That makes no sense....

[KillaBeezWG]

The good days were you could dress however the fuck you wanted to and be punk!

[jacobgoochvideos]

green day.

[budgaugh24]

Why so much green day talk? must be we got some green day fans here who are too ashamed to admit it. why else would they come to mind when a band as nasty as bad brains is playing? FUCK GREEN DAY. im here to listen to bad brains. end of story

[OceanSkate401]

@budgaugh24 are you the drummer for sublime?

[MisterLachstar]

There was a time and a place for Green Day, I was 14 and I hadn't heard the Bad Brains yet...

[punkkid1212]

is it me or does H.R. act like a black version of jello biafra?

[joeybakerboardking]

@punkkid1212 or is jello the "white" H.R.?



[ChocolateTheif]

have some catchy songs, you just don't want to admit it because you don't want to damage this real old classic 80's hardcore image you're trying to build around yourselves. Music is supposed to be pleasing sounds, it makes your brain release dopamine, and then you feel good. Listening to a catchy Greenday song isn't going to cause your brain to release any less dopamine than a Bad Brains song, or a Black Flag song, it's all in your head. It's all elitist bull crap you heard some cool punk say

[ChocolateTheif]

Jesus, you guys really feel good about yourselves when you talk down to Greenday, right? It's so pointless, so ridiculously childish to worry about what is and isn't "real punk." It totally and completely irrelevant to the music, it's just some superiority complex people like to build around themselves so they can feel good about themselves for listening to "better" music. It's not even that you truly hate Greenday, either. A lot of you kids probably know in the back of your head they...

[maximus50238]

@ChocolateTheif actually everything that you mentioned about dopamine was pretty inaccurate. if someone were to listen to atonal dissonant classically based music for the first time, it is very unlikely that they would be pleased by the sounds. however, people who study the music, play the music, and listen to it frequently have better reactions to the music. this is because they have developed a tolerance for dissonance, as well as an appreciation for the intelligence of the music.

[maximus50238]

@ChocolateTheif just let them hate on greenday. you wont change their mindsets. and for the record, the song "umbrella" is very catchy. but i hate that song. The all american rejects are catchy. but i hate the shit out of it. in other words, your little theories need to be thought through a little bit more. oh yeah. and green day? they kind of suck, dude.

[jbceezy]

One of the baddest Punk bands ever

[LightFromADeadStar]

why do i see green day mentioned here this fucking bad brains assholes

[kgirl1306]

Hr is cute :3

[SonOfCheepThrill]

the James Brown of punk... HR is one totally bizarre n brilliant frontman in rock history..

[agujasypuntillas]

This is pure hardcore punk, read on wikipedia

[666Nightshift]

THis is HARDCORE!!!!!!!!!!!!

[coollookylooky]

Later on, no one else was wearing white trousers on a punk rock concert anymore.

[xXbitchslayerXx]

i <3 H.R. he is a legend.

[BrunoOversett]

Why comment about green day in a bad brains video? It's like that stupid comments about bieber or that shet LOL

[Hisfisherman]

Im my decade of punk years.....long ago, saw you live many times....LOVED Bad Brains, part of my life. Big yellow bad brains, sleeveless t-shirts, long black biker boots with spikes, Mohawks. mannnnny pierced ears......I forgot lots of it.......Olympic auditorium riots...Ohhhh those were the days !

[a2damuthafukkink]

damn that is so fuckin awesome . anyone know what year that was ?

bad brains rock !

[rencrustgrind]

secosssssss

[13CIRCLE]

how can anyone compare BB to greenday? Apples and oranges maybe? greenday is fake corporate crap for mommys boys and BB is real punk hardcore from the street. No comparison:)

[spankygrant]

seeing them live the first time in ......84?.....was like a religious experience. I had never seen a tight band like that. HR was a complete mental case.....but in the great way...

[10TORMENTOR]

green day = pop rock alternative of mtv

bad brains = real fucking punk

[GuitarJunkyXL]

@10TORMENTOR green day = pussys

[MrGUITARDUDE1]

@10TORMENTOR exactly!!! finally some one agrees with me!! also, there isnt even music on mtv anymore, thus making them hypocrants.

[iamjaeiynoman]

@10TORMENTOR i cant agree more:)

[aftermathfool]

Found out about this band in a documentary about music called Electric Purgatory, a great film. I can tell I'm gonna like Bad Brains already

[kermitneville]

@aftermathfool Wow, already? Only 30 years later? Amazing!

[aftermathfool]

@kermitneville thats actually the point of the documentary

[DaveK112211]

Kick Ass!!!!!!

[CallMeHaSLeS]

[TheDanHarveyChannel]

More hardcore than Coldplay.

[MrKE3NSGT]

@TheDanHarveyChannel no shit

[hrrsbl]

Bad Brains ... The "Father" of Hardcore Punk!

Along with Minor Threat ... @Brazil - São Paulo

[MichealZero1]

@hrrsbl bad brains actually inspired minor threat and taught them how to play thier instruments

[PentagramCrackers]

@miaoudzilla

greedday=corporate radio pop

[MrStevensBriefcase]

FUUCKING BAAAAD BRAAINS!!

[monehunnet]

EPIC POWER STANCE @ 1:07

[146120]

Bad Brains were fucking punk gods, to bad HR was homophobic :(

[logick0]

@146120 christ, why dont you slide in a complaint about all your favorite artists. too bad ian mckaye invented straight edge. too bad henry rollins didnt respond to my letter. :( :( :( you may or may not be gay, but youre definitely a fag

[146120]

@logick0

You mad? Damn!

and don't mix your complaints, with mine.

[skatemental521]

jello biafra is A REALLY COOL GUY, but doesnt have shit on HR

[punksnotgonnadie]

whoever the singer is, he reminds me of a black jello biafra

[skatemental521]

@punksnotgonnadie paul hudson , HR, you dont know very much about punk or hardcore at all if you dont know who HR is

[Xzone256]

@skatemental521 man dont slam the dude for not knowing who HR is.... like if hes just getting into it thats good. he'll learn

[punksnotgonnadie]

@skatemental521 uhh, thats not true at all heh

[Flipper1974nz]

Bad Brains are brilliant !!!!!!

[TheMetalRulez]

HARDCORE, PUNK & METAL RULE!

[Super25man]

green days name came from the days they would smoke weed... pretty bad ass until they stoped when they got big... FUCK GREEN DAY!

[fakurcouch]

Thank you:-)

Afropunnnnnk

[chadp70]

HR - coolest hardcore voice ever.

[joereyna68]

greenday...more like shitday!!!!

[TheWop4life]

I like green day...

[espacial903]

fucking bad brains,yeaaaaaaaaaaaahhh¡¡¡¡¡¡­¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡

[skatemental521]

you cant dissapear anymore, i see your face lurking outside the window

you say your a trifle, im a bore?

you touch yourself, put your face in a pillow!

[heavymetalguy6]

@skatemental521 but the funny thing about you is you remembered to leave it behind

and the funny thing about me is im a member of the right....BRIGADE!

[mostunconformingever]

i didnt knew that the bad brains where black , i like em even more now haha

[fcburton122]

@mostunconformingever You didnt know BADBRAINS was BLACK until 21 hours ago ? GAY !

[hahahahaha23]

this shit makes the rest of the 70s "hard rock"

[Dopethrone42]

what year was this?

[logick0]

@Dopethrone42 most likely 79

[heeheheheehehe]

Every time I think of how these dudes were doing this shit in the 70s, it makes me respect them infinitely. Goddamn, they were decades ahead of their time with everything. Spazzing out, playing as fast as possible, this shit's beautiful!

[kinstube]

THANK YOU !!!!!

[ryanthethird]

This is the earliest (and slowest) version of this song I've seen, and its so damn good. These guys started a genre . . . who the fuck else does that?

[snoopatomicdog]

When you watch this, you realise where most performers get their inspiration from. Bad Brains deserve soooo much more . They're so cool with their culture! That is some fierce skanking by HR at the beginning! These guys are good!

[TheMonsieurRoach]

the roots of hardcore, they made it! and for thoose who pretend that rock is for white people and for those who pretend that hip hop is for black people, you just have to know about history of music. Bad Brains still are a legend!

[mgsuperstar1]

music has no color so f u all racist half-wit inbred Debils !!!!

[Morthund]

and the funny thing about them is

THEY'RE A DIFFERENT COLOUR AND THAT MATTERS

racist fucking cunts

[WhiteKagu]

God, I an getting old. I remember when they looked like this. They kicked ass.

[GERGSKIN]

HR moshing 0:13 - 0:18.  Thats how you mosh fuckers!

[southport97]

More hardcore than Greenday. 

[tiago4027]

@southport97 you're are a idiot... it's the only fucking way.

bad brains are the fucking REAL DEAL OF HARDCORE PUNK... green day are another shitty band of the pop/punk genre

[nederbassie]

@southport97

What's not more hardcore than one green day

[stevenrhcp]

@southport97 There is more hardcore in my pinky than in the band of Greenday... And I play pokemon

[gunnare123]

@southport97 A kitten is more hardcore than Greenday.

[gregy606]

@gunnare123 HA! sorry didnt see ya there buddy.

[gunnare123]

@gregy606 Oi, no worries. ;D

[gregy606]

@southport97 Dude my fuckin mom is more hardcore than greenday...

[Spitfire995]

@southport97 omg can yall stop mentioning those fakeasses wtf is talking about green day on this video.

[dass0137]

@southport97 are you implying that greenday is hardcore at all?

[southport97]

@dass0137 Their first album was the shit, but it all fell apart since. I was simply making a joke at my initial comment anyway. Hell, I thought it was funny so yeh.

[Admick912]

@southport97

is comparing fare?

[ValeTudo01]

@southport97 every band out there is more hardcore than greenday
