probably something they made up
from wiki: Skindred's musical style mixes heavy metal, punk rock and reggae. The group refers to this style as "Ragga metal"

not familiar with bad brains
but by the look of them and the description on wikipedia they are probably not that far off.

They were INCREDIBLE live in their day
there's a DVD of them at CBGB's in the early 80s that is fucking brilliant. One of the most energetic bands ever....

Yeah.

ragga metal
does it consist of thrashy guitars with a pulsing sub-bassline?

It's a musical style
where the drummer grasps a sex toy between this thighs to play the drums as his penis is too small.
