September 10 street date. The beyond legendary, totally immortal, Washington D.C. via NYC Rastafarian hardcore and reggae group Bad Brains released their self-titled debut album in January of 1982 on ROIR and performed some of their very first West Coast gigs later that year. The Old Waldorf, at that point owned by Bill Graham, originally opened in 1976 and was host to some of the Bay's most legendary early punk shows featuring The Avengers, The Dead Boys, The Dead Kennedys, and others. Bad Brains played their patented blend of hardcore punk and dub/roots reggae to a packed and frenzied crowd at The Old Waldorf on October 20th, 1982, a now historical live radio broadcast presented here in stunning sound quality on HQ 140 gram vinyl.
March 29 street date. Bad Brains "Black Dots" is the first official studio recording for the seminal punk rock artists. This is its first official reissue in over 20 years, pressed in a limited edition of 1500 copies on white vinyl. Surfacing out of nowhere in 1996, "Black Dots" turned out to be an archival release of the best kind, something truly rare and unheard that also captured a band at its best. Nearly all the legendary early hits are here, including "Pay to Cum," "Don't Need It," "Regulator," "Banned in D.C.," "How Low Can a Punk Get?" and "Attitude," while a number of otherwise unheard or never-recorded elsewhere numbers make "Black Dots" easily the equal of the ROIR cassette.

June 24 street date. Since their debut album Hirntrafo, the band Kein Hass Da has constantly been on tour to promote their German-lyrics version of the Bad Brains. Their new album, released under the Bad Brains In Dub moniker, celebrates the reggae and dub side of the Bad Brains and pays tribute to this important aspect of the Bad Brains' musical and cultural legacy. With official support and assistance of the Bad Brains management in the United States, Kein Hass Da, in combination with first-class dub and reggae remixers, including Bad Brains' very own Darryl Jenifer, has succeeded in creating a heavy masterpiece in 13 chapters. Drenched in echo, the sounds in this dub treatment contravene the rules of space and time. In the words of Kein Hass Da: "The truth is: We are not from this world. Our earth is not as backward as this one -- on the other hand, punk has never happened there, and Alice Cooper died in 1973. With the help of this thing we came to YOUR world, and then met the Bad Brains in the years of 1979, 1982, and 1989, to be exact. This was also our first encounter with punk -- we were really impressed! The impact on KHD was so great, that we had the idea to play the Bad Brains' songs in OUR world ... claiming WE were the BAD BRAINS!!"
