The processe of belief that was the **** back when i was 13 or how evere old i was and yey me and chesser arent banned anymore ...

'The Empire Strikes First' is probably their best album writing wise, it is absolutley brilliant. The backing vocals are used very effectivly, i heard they had to get a whole load of people in to track them.

Great band.

nope, no control is fu'cking brilliant

Rootsradical 09-18-2005 11:15 AM

I'd have to go with Process of Belief as being their best. Kyoto Now is an amazing song and always gets stuck in my head.

AIRIC 09-18-2005 11:29 AM

I still can't get into them.

What No !!!!
its on of there best

El_Shiznit 09-18-2005 04:41 PM

No Control used to be my favorite of theirs. Now it's either Suffer or Process Of Belief.

Untitled 09-18-2005 04:43 PM

Bad Religion is awesome. great live too.

Mute Print 09-18-2005 04:43 PM

[I]Process of Belief[/I] is my favorite, although [I]No Control[/I] is great as well.

I like [I]Against The Grain[/I] quite a bit too, although it definately isn't their best.

You HAVE to give them some credit. At least. If it wasn't for them we wouldn't have Epitaph. Yeah, epitaph might suck **** now, but if itwasn't for them, modern punk wouldn't be where its at today.

Personally they are in the number one slot on my list. And have been for years.

POINTLESS5448 09-18-2005 06:37 PM

they are so great. when i first heard them i liked a couple songs but thats it. ive gotten alot more into them now and i love them. no control is such a good album.

Flagjacket 09-18-2005 08:08 PM

Just today I found out that they have an album called The New America that I never remember reading or hearing about. I felt dumb.

I want to conquer the world is insanely good

I love bad religion, not just because they're music and lyrics are better than 90% of any other bands, not just because theyve been around forever, and still kick *** much *** as they did years ago, and not just because their live show is amazing.

What i really like about them is how easy they are to make fun of. Wether it be the cheesy guitar solos (modern man), the album Into the Unknown, the whole Atlantic thing, the video for Struck a Nerve where Greg wears some of the weirdest clothes, having THREE guitar players, or the fact that Greg Graffin looks like Bruce Willis' long lost brother.

[QUOTE=El_Shiznit]I'm glad we have a thread by Kasey every 5 months that is titled "Bad Religion" and then a continued statement reflecting good music.[/QUOTE]
Do I really only do it every 5 months?

I'm going to have to kick it up a notch.

I'm pretty sure the guy with the neck brace is not Greg.

delinquent 09-19-2005 02:23 AM

They probably won't ever come Down Under, not sure if they have before but I doubt they'll come anytime soon.

Biscuit_box 09-19-2005 05:00 AM

Bad Religion are good. But nothing special. I have like 4 of their albums but none of them can keep me interested to listen to the end of the album!

No-one ever comes down under. Well no punk bands anyway, they all tend to stick to the USA or the UK. Sad times.

smokersdieyounger 09-19-2005 10:01 AM

Ive got no control and against the grain, I really like against the grain, I heard they went prob and it was ****, this true?

azguitar92 09-19-2005 01:53 PM

i really like them!

yeah but the guy with the blaze orange hunting hat with earflaps, and the large brimmed flower hat are Greg.

DBoons Ghost 09-20-2005 06:12 AM

No Control is amazing no doubt. I just think No Control was a bit of a let down. Paid full price for an album 30 minutes in length, where just about every song sounds the same..

No Control, You, I Want to Conquer the World and Henchmen highlight that one for me.

Against the Grain just captures their signature sound to me. It is their defining album, both lyrically and musically.

Drop The Baby 09-20-2005 06:15 AM

I love that album for reasons that you've given for disliking it. The length means that its never dull and its constantly so fast and powerful.

You definately picked out the best songs though, they are incredible. Not taking it away from other songs though, there are some other crackers e.g. change of ideas and Big Bang

Wankers, all of them.

No Control is awesome, just about every song is a highlight. The songs do sound a little similar but it's still a great album.

Yeah start to finish it's great to be honest. I can listen to it all and not be unhappy.

I still think it should have been an EP and been maybe 7 bucks though.

TakeWarning 09-20-2005 06:37 AM

I reckon Progress is the best song on No Control, I can listen to that over and over. Does anyone agree with me?

Drop The Baby 09-20-2005 07:07 AM

i was just listening to that song thinking it was great. I don't agree with you though.

Man, I love Change Of Ideas.

But yeah, Faith Alone, Walk Away, and Anesthesia; Against The Grain is sooooo good.
