Released in 1983, Rock for Light is the second staggering full-length from first wave hardcore phenoms Bad Brains. Like the bands iconic self-titled debut cassette, the collection slams through devilishly raw and melodic anthems that highlight Dr. Knows jazz-shredded guitar work and H.R.s manic-panic vocal tremoring. But Bad Brains also dove even further into the world of reggae, cementing their legacy as a band that worked in rhythmic extremes. Produced by Cars guitarist-vocalist Ric Ocasek, Rock for Light is presented here in its original mix on burnt orange vinyl.
