By melding punk with reggae and performing with a speed and precision that amazed audiences, Bad Brains became one of the definitive American hardcore punk groups of the early '80s. Bad Brains have been cited as a seminal influence to numerous other subgenres, such as thrash/speed metal, alternative metal, and funk metal. Build a Nation is the eighth studio album by Bad Brains, released in 2007.
