Bad Brains album news, tour dates

Posted April 18th, 2007 by eric

The original Bad Brains line-up is set to release Build a Nation on the Megaforce label this month with Beastie Boy Adam Yauch producing.

This isn’t the first time the band has reunited. 1995’s God of Love saw the original line-up attempt a comeback for Madonna’s Maverick label (with millions of dollar bills dangling above their heads), even going so far as getting Rock for Light producer Ric Ocasek back on board. The result was uneven, lazy, and slightly embarrassing. Let’s hope this go round is for the music and not for the money.

Bad Brains’ scheduled shows:

May 25th, Portland, OR, Berbati’s Pan

May 27th, George, Washington, Sasquatch! Music Festival

June 24th, Asbury Park, NJ, NY School of Rock Fest

July 29th, Toronto, ONT, The Rogers Picnic

Aug 5th, Baltimore, MD, Pimlico Virgin Festival
