The debut, self-titled album of the group Bad Brains. Released originally solely on cassette tape. This album is widely regarded as one of the best punk albums ever made. Additionally, despite Bad Brains' DC roots, this album heavily influenced New York City’s hardcore scene in the mid-late ‘80s.
The album focuses on paranormal concepts and the occult. Additionally, it serves as a love letter to the 80s, both by way of emulating its aesthetics and by navigating the economic insecurities (“Reaganomics”, “I Earn My Life”) and technological advancements (“Cabinet Man”) of the decade.
Let My Children Hear Music is a unique feather in Mingus' musical cap. It is an album full of Mingus' characteristic spontaneity, but in a way that is more organized and almost classical in nature. Mingus has regarded it as the “best album [he] ever made”.
The album shares the name of J.G. Ballard’s 1970 novel and Joy Division’s 1980 track. Both were quite controversial following their release with references to a Third World War and JFK’s assassination in the novel, and the lead singer of Joy Division, Ian Curtis, subsequently committing suicide. Danny stated that another meaning of the album is more literal. People treat usually disturbing things like his drug habits or police brutality as though they are part of a freak-show.
