Bad Brains was basically the first hardcore punk band. They influenced damn near every Alt Rock/Heavy Metal/Punk band there is

Banned in DC is chaotic piff

Nah the ramones were first. Bad brains doesnt even like calling themselves punk rock. Punk rock wasnt really created it just is, in theory it should be music anyone can play.

Foh. There are racist metalheads on some fukk shyt but metal as a whole is far from racist or exclusionary in ANY way. It's the exact opposite.

Play heavy metal in an African country and the electricity goes out .

Culture is dynamic. All types of fusions happening right now.

Didn't wanna make a new thread but I found this quote interesting from the singer of one of my favorite bands.

Witherspoon says he doesn't see racism at Sevendust gigs these days, but years ago on tour with Slipknot he saw "a couple of knuckleheads" in the mosh pit give the Hitler salute, oblivious to what it meant. In melancholy moments, he suspects his race might have slowed the band's rise.

"I've always wondered if I had not been a black man in Sevendust, would it have even gotten bigger?" he asks. "At the end of the day, I'm glad that it took this long because we're still here."

20 years later, metal band Sevendust relishes Grammy nod

Ramones didn't play the fast hardcore style. Bad Brains were the first HC.
