Bad Reaction – Had It Coming CD

BAD REACTION came together after Brooklyn native Kash Reaction (born Khalid Abdulmalik) moved to Los Angeles in 2001 after having quit his studies in the toy manufacturing business. Over the course of two years, and after many false starts, Kash assembled the line up that came to be BAD REACTION. The commonalities lie in their love of the melodic hardcore punk of the early 80s, namely ZERO BOYS, ADOLESCENTS and BAD BRAINS. On another spectrum altogether is Justin of Stillwater, Oklahoma, who is not a fan of punk music at all. He contributes an outsider’s perspective on Jesse and Ben’s punk roots songwriting styles. Add to this Kash’s lyrical input that incorporates storytelling and character study while blurring the line between humor and seriousness. Through constant playing shows, touring, and recording, BAD REACTION are working on leaving their mark while not fitting into any one scene. This current black sheep of punk music would rather build a scene of their own. Their debut CD, „Had it coming, combines two 7”s (The Plastic World and Dare To Be Dull), in addition to a rendition of the BAD BRAINS classic “Pay to cum”.
