5.0 classic
Bad Religion Suffer
Classic. Every track is unique and and full of pounding aggression and feeling. THE best Bad Religion release to say the least. One of the best punk albums of all time-- if not THE best.
Bad Religion Stranger Than Fiction
My second favorite BR album, right under Suffer. It's melodic, it's aggressive and it's poignant. All that is awesome.

First To Leave Change Never Lasts
Folly Resist Convenience
I've always admired bands who could could successfully blend two or more genres of music. This album is a complete testament to that. Badass lyrics, badass rhythm, badass leads, and badass beats-- there's nothing to dislike about this. Folly makes it seem like hardcore and ska should have walked hand in hand at conception.

Screeching Weasel Boogadaboogadaboogada!
Screeching Weasel's proudest album, in my opinion. From extremely sweet, poppy songs like "Hey Suburbia" to dissonant, more harder-corer songs like "Hunter" and "Nicaragua", it's a pretty flawless summary of Screeching Weasel's sound and career.

Two-stepping in the right direction.
They've ditched the two biggest burdens that plagued them since Homeland Insecurity. They're signed to a smaller label that's not pushing them to make another cookie-cutter pop punk + hardcore album, and they got a new songwriter and vocalist; no more poppy choruses.
You can tell they're much more comfortable with this style. They've went from the butt of a joke to a force to be reckoned with in the hardcore community. I'm definitely pumped to see where the band will go from here.
