- Source: Rise (Bad Brains album)
Rise is the fifth studio album by American rock band Bad Brains. It is the first Bad Brains album to be released on a major label (Epic Records) and is notable for the absence of two original members: here, Israel Joseph I replaces vocalist H.R. and Cro-Mags drummer Mackie Jayson, who was a session musician on the band's previous album Quickness, replaces drummer Earl Hudson.
The album was released in the wake of a number of funk rock acts whose sounds recalled the latter work of Bad Brains.
