Nekropigeon said it best, they have been almost 30 years they are still kicking ass, the sound my be more refined and a wee less sloppy from when they were around the age of 17 - 18(check my link below)which is from 1984. but i have seen them like 10 times live and its always amazing show, i wish i was old enough to see that show in 1984 but hey i was only 4 years of age.
Rarely does a band stick around this long in an often unrewarding genre and maintain a fan base that spans generations while holding onto their dignity & principles of the punk ethos. I read something about a new album being worked on. These guys will one day be spending their social security checks on beer during their tours. In "Modern Man," the lyric said he would live forever if it wasn't for the slight problem of having such a short time to figure out how. Perhaps Greg has solved that riddle. Long live BR.
In a world ruled increasingly by superstition and intolerance, Bad Religion's rousing wall-of-sound punk seems about as necessary now as ever before. It is the impassioned sound of reason, anthems of a bittersweet idealism and a guarded hope set to propulsive guitars and charging drumbeats. And while most groups with even half the artistic output have long ago morphed into stylistic self parody, Bad Religion is currently surging forward with a renewed creative intensity. Their fourteenth album, entitled New Maps of Hell, is both a nod to the band's defiant past and an undeniable step forward in the evolution of a genre they helped to define. While many of the new songs are as brutally fast and unflinchingly heartfelt as anything the band has done before, the record is also filled with unexpected sounds, inventive rhythms and lush pop choruses.
This song is one of very many that Bad Religion has played that makes a person get in to the mood of punk rock. This band will be forever gifted with their talents and members.
