Sprechen sie deutsch? Kein Hass Da do Bad Brains in German
Posted on September 24, 2010 | 1 CommentKEIN HASS DA sprechen sie Bad Brains en deutsch. And they fucking rule. Seriously, these german dudes are really just a bad brains tribute band, except for one difference: they've re-done 25 Bad Brains songs from 78-89 - IN GERMAN.

Posted on September 24, 2010 | No CommentsI've been vibing pretty hard on 93.5 (kday) because they play shit like Digital Underground, Kriss Kross, SWV, and TLC.
