Full of cheesy 80s sounding metal guitar solos.
Only thing I ever thought Bad Brains got right, was the RIOR album. "I Against I" was just ok, but I would not call it Crossover. If anything I would call Bad Brains a fusion band, fusing Hardcore with Raggae and Metal on that album, but not Crossover. Crossover is Crumbsuckers, Cryptic Slaughter, Attitude Adjustment, D.R.I., Cro-Mags, Suicidal Tendencies, Wehrmacht or (early) Corrosion of Conformity to name a few... listening to those bands it has a specific sound and style attacted to it, and Bad Brains are nothing close to that sound. I would refer to Bad Brains more as a fusion group.
