As you may have noticed from the right side bar, we're sponsoring this year's Fun Fun Fun Fest. With the show coming up this weekend, we thought it'd be a good idea to highlight some of the cool bands you can expect to see at the event. First up, is headliner Bad Brains. The band, which formed in 1977, are among those responsible for modern American hardcore and were a key influence for a myriad of bands, not the least of which was Washington DC's Minor Threat. The band's founding members reunited last year to release Build a Nation and have been touring around the world ever since.

You can find some of the band's material on their myspace page.
