Rise (Bad Brains album)

Rise is the fifth studio album by hardcore punk pioneers Bad Brains.[5] It is the first Bad Brains album to be released on a major label (Epic Records) and is notable for the absence of two original members: here, Israel Joseph I replaces vocalist H.R. and Cro-Mags drummer Mackie Jayson, who was a session musician on the band's previous album Quickness, replaces drummer Earl Hudson.

The album was released in the wake of a number of funk rock acts whose sounds recalled the latter work of Bad Brains.

Personnel
gollark: Mostly I just have `yay` do AUR stuff.
gollark: I actually prefer pacman, because btw I use arch.
gollark: Also, "official audio" in the title is a good sign.
gollark: Search doesn't seem to want to show them sometimes however. I don't know why.
gollark: I found that YouTube seems to mostly have un-video-y versions of songs labeled with "[Artist Name] - Topic" where the channel should be.
