Album Rating: 3.5
Lol i love the "Lagwagon defended gay people before it was cool to."
Personally I don't hate gay people, but I agree that too many celebrities and musicians are overly supportive of homosexuality. Not to sound like a conservative, but its getting to a point where gays are demanding a lot more than 10 years ago.
Back onto music, this is a great album. Man with a Mission is really good. I realized a controversial theory when I literally linked Avenged Sevenfold to this album. I think they stole the formula for this album.
1. Overly catchy choruses
2. Over the top soloing
3. Extreme emphasis on melody
This album is like a stripped down version (but still way better) of Avenged Sevenfold's douchey pop metal. Please don't block me for this

Yeah...now they want us to make them feel like they're equal to everyone else. This can't happen...we have to keep them down! We let the women and those fucking Negros out from under our thumb; we need to keep the fags down there, else we'll have no one else to feel superior to!!!
(Okay...perhaps that was unnecessary, but that sentence didn't make much sense to me. Also, maybe it sounded a bit too familiar).
As for this album..."Skyscraper" is among the most underrated BR songs ever, along with "Broken" and "Boot Stamping...." It's sooo damn good!

Not to sound like a conservative, but its getting to a point where gays are demanding a lot more than 10 years ago. You're agreeing to something that I never said. 10 or 20 years ago when gay people could have actually used the outside support there was virtually none to be found. Sebastian Bach famously wore a shirt that said "AIDS kills fags dead" and no one blinked an eye, and Lagwagon stepped into a testostrone-fueled genre and defended them anyway (even if just through a single song). These days when things seem to be infinitely better, it's now the cool thing to do, and is used as bragging rights by idiots trying to prove who is more open minded and socially conscious. As far as what they are or aren't demanding, I'm only aware of the gay marriage issue, and I don't see what the problem is.

Please don't block me for this I think you're reaching for something that's not really there. It would be like me linking Pearl Harbor (with Ben Affelck) with Schindler's List because they have the same formula:
1) The time frame is World War 2.
2) Focuses on the human element over the war itself.
3) One man saves many others.As for this album..."Skyscraper" is among the most underrated BR songs ever Totally agreed.

"American Jesus" rules.
Absolutely. Even after all this time, it still remains in the top 5 out of the entire Bad Religion song catalogue (IMO, at least).
