The 1001 Albums Challenge # 108: Bad Brains– “I Against I”

I know the story of Bad Brains, I remember hearing some of their stuff way back too. But it’s just not really doing much for me here. And that’s okay. Can’t like them all. Certainly don’t hate this. But definitely think I’m through bothering…

I’m going through the book, 1001 Albums You Must Hear Before You Die, and playing all of the albums I haven’t (previously) heard. It’s a pointless goal, but it’s my goal…
