Black Rebel Motorcycle Club is a rock band from San Francisco, United State… Read Full Bio ↴Black Rebel Motorcycle Club is a rock band from San Francisco, United States. The band formed in 1998. Influences include The Brian Jonestown Massacre, The Verve, The Rolling Stones, Oasis, T. Rex, The Velvet Underground, Love and Rockets, Daniel Ash, and The Jesus and Mary Chain.
The band's second album 'Take Them On, On Your Own' featured several songs ('Generation' and 'US Government') which were critical of the United States' foreign policy and George Bush in particular.
After conflict with their label (Virgin Records), the band was dropped in 2004. Nick Jago left the band at the end of their summer tour in the same year due to "internal conflict".
Following Jago's departure Peter Hayes and Robert Levon Been regrouped and recorded the band's third album. With their third record Howl, they added blues, folk and gospel, a la Spiritualized.
In 2005 the band inked a new deal with Echo in the UK, and RCA in the US. Nick Jago also returned to the fold. The band's third album "Howl" was released that same year to widespread critical acclaim. Jago returned after most of the album was recorded but played on "Promise".
"Baby 81" the band's fourth album was released on May 1st, 2007. In June 2008 Nick Jago once again left the touring line-up of the band being replaced by The Raveonettes' touring drummer Leah Shapiro. Nick stated that "...I am fired again and to be honest with you I respect their decision".
However Hayes and Been released a conflicting joint statement that read "Nick won't be joining us for the upcoming European tour, but it's not true that he is fired. We just feel Nick needs time to sort out exactly what he wants right now. His heart and all his energy and attention is on his own solo project and he needs to see that through".
Current:
On January 9, 2013, the band announced via Facebook the name of their seventh album called Specter at the Feast which was released on March 18 in the UK and Europe and on March 19 in USA, Canada and worldwide. It is considered a tribute to Michael Been (The Call), Robert Levon Been's father who died suddenly on tour with BRMC in August 2010.
It received mostly positive reviews; many critics noting that despite the band having been together for some time the album showed a mellower and moodier side with songs such as opener `Firewalker'.
The band made the first single from the record available, a cover of The Call's 1989 hit "Let the Day Begin", for free download on their official website. The decision to record the song was a tribute to Robert's father Michael, who used his experience from The Call to help BRMC before his death in the last couple of years. The single became Q Magazine's track of the day.[6] The band have also released the Let the Day Begin EP for free, consisting of the single and the album track "Returning", made available for streaming on the official website.[7]
On April 8, 2013 it was announced that the band would play at Rock Werchter, the largest rock festival in Belgium.
The band continues to show a willingness to tour despite the obstacles. During the 2013 tour, the organisers of the Harvest festival in Australia decided to abandon the multi-city event, of which BRMC were one of the lead acts, only a few months ahead of the performances. BRMC was the first band to announce it would still visit the country and play its own shows.
Many shows on the 2013/2014 tour have sold out.
BRMC's music/songs have been featured in many films, television programs and video games.

Little Thing Gone Wild
Black Rebel Motorcycle Club Lyrics
Lord don't let me go down, will my soul be turned
Don't wanna me leave the ground till I'm done reaping
Lord you let me down but I will still reach in
Don't wanna spit me out, might as well be eaten
Little thing gone wild
Little thing gone wild
Little thing gone wild
Little thing's gone wild
Lord don't hold me down while I'm still creeping
I wanna shake the ground till I am done reaping
Lord do you hear me loud; unto my soul speaketh
Oh won't you let me out, you got the wrong creature
Little thing gone wild
Little thing gone wild
Little thing gone wild
Little thing's gone wild
Why won't you let me love?
Won't you let me love?
I wanna feel your love
I want your creature love
Why won't you let me love?
Won't you let me love?
I wanna flee your love
I want your creature love
Why won't you let me love?
Won't you let me love?
I wanna eat your love
I'll be your peace for love
Why won't you let me love?
Won't you let me love?
I wanna feel your love
I want your creature love
Little thing gone wild (little thing's gone wild)
Little thing gone wild (little thing's gone wild)
Little thing gone wild (little thing's gone wild)
(Be your love, your creature love)
(Be your love, your creature love)
(Be your love, your creature love)
Why won't you let me love
Won't you let me love?
I wanna feel your love
I want your creature love
Don't wanna me leave the ground till I'm done reaping
Lord you let me down but I will still reach in
Don't wanna spit me out, might as well be eaten
Little thing gone wild
Little thing gone wild
Little thing gone wild
Little thing's gone wild
I wanna shake the ground till I am done reaping
Lord do you hear me loud; unto my soul speaketh
Oh won't you let me out, you got the wrong creature
Little thing gone wild
Little thing gone wild
Little thing gone wild
Little thing's gone wild
Why won't you let me love?
Won't you let me love?
I wanna feel your love
I want your creature love
Why won't you let me love?
Won't you let me love?
I wanna flee your love
I want your creature love
Why won't you let me love?
Won't you let me love?
I wanna eat your love
I'll be your peace for love
Why won't you let me love?
Won't you let me love?
I wanna feel your love
I want your creature love
Little thing gone wild (little thing's gone wild)
Little thing gone wild (little thing's gone wild)
Little thing gone wild (little thing's gone wild)
(Be your love, your creature love)
(Be your love, your creature love)
(Be your love, your creature love)
Why won't you let me love
Won't you let me love?
I wanna feel your love
I want your creature love

This band are incredible..I have all the albums...Their irreverence to the industry makes me love them more..

They just continue to smash it out the park every time every album. So thankful they stay true to themselves

Basically best band ever, I've been listening to them since 2011 and they never seem to make bad songs! Give it some time and it will soon grow big!
AnotherGuy
I discovered this band in 2003 and have been a follower ever since. You should definitely see them live if you get the chance! They also deserves sooooo much more appreciation than they currently have had. Give it 20 more years, and I think they will be recognized...
Jac Kar
We saw sold out gigs in germany in november! Says a lot!
Gordon Glaser
The Bass line on this brilliant. Hell I love this and the whole album. Saw them live last week. Probably at least the 5th time I've seen them since they formed the band. I remember Peter with Brian Jonestown. Love these guys. Made my year already. My girlfriend and I have a very emotional connection to Echo especially.
Symbolic
Been a fan for around 16-17 years now, these guys never disappoint. Pure rock bliss.

I'm in love with this band, the music, the vibe, everything
