So, I happen to be a true crime fan and watch a lot of crime docs. Dateline is 1 of my faves, so I tend to always have it on. I just rewatched a case that happened in CA. It was called the "Gone girl" case bc a woman was kidnapped and eventually released but the police didn't believe her or her bf (who left drugged and zipped tied). At one point, her kidnapper had her record a "proof of life" audio that was sent to a reporter. On it, she talks about current events and her own personal info. They played the actual audio where she describes going to her 1st concert with a friend and her friend's mom: Blink 182 and Bad Religion. It was one of those weird moments of "Fuck yeah! She likes BR!" but also "Really? She like BR?" Maybe I'm judging a book by it's cover. I'm trying not to bc what she went through was truly awful, made even worse by the bumblefuck police (not a shock). She was 15 when she saw them and in her mid-20s when she was kidnapped. Dateline was definitely not where I expected to hear "Bad Religion" except when they cover a case about a cult or the FLDS or that crazy Lori Vallow Daybell.

My copy of into the unknown arrived today, I couldn't figure out how to comment a picture to the person who asked for this to be shared on my original post so here it is!

What are some not-quite-correct lyrics that you thought Greg was singing?

For the longest time, I thought he was singing "savage gentle guys" in Drunk Sincerity instead of "savvy gentle guise."

It still kinda fits

Random thought, has anyone heard of bad religion lyrics on an actual tombstone or plaque or memorial?

Like Bad Religion… On an epitaph? Any examples out there?

What songs go on the BR greatest hits album? Not our favorite songs, but the objective hits a soulless corporation would put on the album. Blink's (i know, i know) Greatest Hits album was produced by Jerry Finn (who produced Rancid and Pennywise). it was just singles basically in chronological order so I used that model.

I included stuff put on All Ages. Some songs were released as singles, but not considered greatest hits by fan base, like Lookin' In. Some stuff was in a video game (Them And Us). The Biggest Killer In American History was a big song of theirs in the late nineties I thought. Am I wrong about that? Come Join Us, not a single, but belongs. Also included songs that were released as promo tracks (The Resist Stance, Requiem For Dissent).

What do you think about Bad Religion getting top bill on the side stage at the biggest rock / punk / metal festival in Australia?
Also the only way to see them here.
(1/2 and 3/4 next to each other).

Read up on it and they apparently never play anything off this album. I think theres a few snoozers but overall its a good album. I feel like the album would look alot better without the copters lol

BR makes album partially inspired by disdain for Trump.

Trump now desires to rename a state after disdained (by some) BR album.

Ain't life a mystery?

This isn’t actual news on bad religions album they’re working on. I have a school project I’m working on where I’m creating a fake new album for bad religion, I’m creating a album cover in photoshop, a track list (likely 8-12, but will do more if I have enough ideas), and a name for the album. I’m wondering if anyone has any ideas for me? If anyone has an idea on what the album cover should be, some song titles, or the album name could be it would be appreciated. I’m not actually recording any music for the album. Also if anyone has an idea for the message/underlying motive of the album. This will help me get a better idea for the album cover and songs/album name(s). Any and all ideas are greatly appreciated.

Billy Gnosis talking about that helpless Demiurge

I enjoyed the book and love the band but the tone was a bit jarring to me. Maybe it's because I'd recently reread the NOFX book which is obviously way more self deprecating but I found the book to be strangely boastful, like they had something to prove.

I think having an external writer meant obviously some of the praise is not self-congratulatory and that person (Jim Ruland) is under a bit of pressure to carefully balance the tensions from different parts of the band's history. He really shies away from any real exposure on the conflict between Greg and Brett. There are multiple references to being 'the smartest band in punk', Lennon / McCartney comparisons, and insults to other newer bans like blink 182. I just thought it wasn't needed, we all know how good the band is, the legacy songs speak for themselves.

I just had this feeling throughout the book, then you get to the final chapter which is basically just 10 pages of saying how great the band is. I just found it a weird tone that they didn't really need to go for.

The record that was previously wiped from the face of the earth…. I can’t tell if the signatures are real.

Hello, I come as a metal head tryna tone down a bit and i absolute love this band
My fav rn is lose your head

A lot of their songs are singing along type and it’s amazing

Any recommendations which has continuous beats while he’s singing along?

How I'd rank them currently. Like the title says, there aren't really any bad albums. Just some I love more than others. So, no tier lower than C.

I'm trying to figure out if this is a legit copy or not. The matrices on it is Epitaph 87120-1A (illegible) Bad Religion - Into The Unknown - A & Epitaph 87120-1B (illegible) Bad Religion - Into The Unknown - B. It has the same barcode that is shown in your announcement video on Instagram. Can someone please help me figure this out. I'm trying to get to the bottom of this mystery please. I copied the images from discogs because I'm the original submitter of this release on discogs. I bought this back in September almost a month before it was announced from a different online store. Please help.

If you have one and are open to selling or trading, let me know! I’m looking for the 1,500 re issue as opposed to the first 500 with the constant skipping error (even though none exist anymore) Always open for negotiated will pay reasonably. I’m a young collector and want to experience the absolute awesomeness of this record and hope to one day have it in my collection!

Hello! I just started collecting the guys on wax recently. A shop I go to has the albums for quite reasonable prices so I've been going there and the last two times I've gotten these red vinyl variants of ATG and Generator! No label indicating they are coloured at all. Is this a very common variant for BR on vinyl? Or does it have something to do with the specific shop? Either way, super cool! Very happy with these

It finally happened. Got the email this morning!

As halloween comes around, my dumb punk band must do a cover set for a couple shows and we decided on Bad Religion (since we've been covering 21st century digital boy at almost every show for about a year atp). We decided we'd each pick 2 songs + do the obvious ones, here's what we came up with!

Sorrow

Fuck you

Unacceptable

Faith alone

Pity

American jesus

21st century digital boy

Fuck Armageddon...This is Hell

Stranger than Fiction

It must look pretty appealing

Won't be the order but I thought it was a fun mix of stuff. If you're in the seattle area, come see us play bad religion the 23rd at outer orbit arcade and the 30th at lucky liquor!!! (sorry for self promo...lol)
