Gary Miller (born September 15, 1958), better known by his stage name Dr.Know, is the guitarist for one of the first all-black punk bands, Bad Brains. He is one of the best guitarists in punk/hardcore. I’ve been a fan of the band for nearly 20 years. The band is known for its high energy and setting, helping to set the standard of high-energy sounds and shows. Bad Brain was led by singer H.R. and was known for his high energy and wild stage antics, but the necessary guitar work of Dr. Know helped balance it out. The band did more than play punk. They expanded into reggae and metal. At the height of their career, Dr. Know played punk with more “ layers” than most punk bands. Dr. Know was able to adapt to reggae and to metal quickly. Years ago(1999), a friend said,“ People think Agnostic Front wrote the blueprint to hardcore; they didn’t. It was Bad Brian.” Dr. Know’s metal chops are on full display in the album Black Dots and one of my favorite albums, Quickness. Unfortunately, Dr. Know had a bit of a health scare a few years ago but has been back playing the punk music that fans of Bad Brains have grown to love.

Dr.Know
to WRITE to whomever giveth us thoughts,
of men, of its origins,
(is it?)a thought or a whisper?
(is it?) a sigh or a hymn of the heart?
it speaks for what it is,
are you listening to me
your sister i am a mother
and a brother to you
yet you ignore though my heart speaks the truth,
but then again
in this generation, i am always “uncool”
do i not seek what you seek?
love what you love?
then again
who is blind?
we are!
for we do what is right in our sight
nowadays do we live wth what is true
or what we want
is what we want to live by?
till when do we fool ourselves?
you say you are wise
do you believe in impossibilities?
do you believe in “cover-up” facts,
pseudo reality,
a “ready made” for it is easy to consume,
chewable man-made crap
do you believe in spirits
do you believe in GOD
we know for sure..
science
of ever prover
ever preaching reality
of what is life
it heals
it saves
it reveals the secret of every atom in the universe,
to interpret the mind?dreams
phenomenon of the mind?
and so
they will
eventually dictate
our mind
shall speak freely
make music (out of it)
so we say we know
will know
for we are wise?
may i ask dr.science,
who had form your genisis
you genius mind and body
truly you are the body of knowledge
made up of billions, zillions thoughts
and put it to test
and you are always right
what is common good?
very well then,
do you have the formulae of the spirit?
the one who whispers this words from the tree?
the sun, the moon
the stars, the clouds
the earth and the seas
made perfect for us men
cause to exist
to the ultimate chemical reaction
that evolved us to men
surely , you are getting closer
can you explain the maker of the source,
the MAKER of the MAKER perhaps,
till when will you cover up the truth
till when will you ignore the voice
which tells you this
to accept that there is someone
a spirit
the one who crafted this marvels
the one who weaves time
now speaks to you
is it a pride
and fear of being named a fool
to believeth in something you do not see
feel, hear without logic
is FAITH
and you wear it in shame
for it remains unnamed
you wait for the sap
from the breasts of knowledge
consume it like a hungry beast
and you wear it upon your sleeves
ignoring the limb devine whispering
to you now do you?
you have heard something
this i tell you brothers and sisters
we have been concealed in the dark
helpless and inoccent
trapped
for we were caught in the net of the wicked
basterdizing the truth and mislead us
provoked the truth to anger and hidden itself
and only for the ones who seek he who’ll find
pray that you hear the truth
pray that you see the light
pray that you live in the truth of life
which whispers
