June 1980 saw the release of the Bad Brains' debut single, which changed the face of hardcore punk forever.

"Realising that they couldn’t rely on a record company to back them, [they] released their first single, the explosive Pay To Cum, DIY-style."

Dr. Know: "We pressed it, licked ’em, sticked ’em.
There were no labels signing this, it wasn’t like that."

Over 20 years later, tells me what it was like to write two blocks from a school shooting, why hope was their accidental superpower, and how HR from showed up to the studio with two parakeets.
