Beastie Boys member Adam Yauch has produced the new album by the legendary Afro-American hardcore/punk/reggae group Bad Brains. The CD, entitled "Build a Nation", is expected in late May or early June. By the way, the next Beastie Boys release should emerge at the same time, as we informed you yesterday.

Bad Brains' current line-up is the same as their classic one from 1979, featuring singer H.R., guitarist Dr. Know, bassist Darryl Jenifer and drummer Earl Hudson.
