Bad Religion Come Back?

Legendary Los Angeles punkers Bad Religion have planned to record a new album sometime before 2005 ends -- it is widely expected to be released in 2006, frontman Greg Graffin said recently. The record is the follow-up to last year's "The Empire Strikes First". However, the group has not said an another official word about the new album as of yet.

Greg Graffin and guitarist Brett Gurewitz have written about 20 songs or more while touring behind with their previous album "The Empire Strikes First". They have not stopped touring since last spring and until fall, which marks the last tour of their previous album.

Also during 2005, Bad Religion will release a live DVD, entitled "Live At The Palladium". It is due out sometime September, as Greg Graffin said in an interview for the famous Los Angeles, California modern rock station KROQ 106.7FM.

Awesome. Im just starting getting into these older punk bands. Quite good actually, it just shows what happens when your exposed to too much Pop-Punk/Emo.. You think all punk is crap.

[GetLostInIt776]

Bad Religion is awesome...they're classic. Everyone should own multiple Bad Religion CD's...Greg is a great vocalist, so...long live the kings!

[The Big Irish]

Looking forward to the new CD. Sounds like it will be their best yet.

[DisgruntledDuck]

I love Bad Religion, they've perfected their sound after many years, and i for one can't wait to hear some more.

[MattyB]

I think the empire strikes back was a step down from there previous efforts. They're finding it very hard to come up with new material. The lyrics never really disapoint though.

[alm0st a skat3r]

I love Bad Religion. Greg Greffin is a brilliant man. His solo album proved it. I CANT WAIT

[FghtFfYrDmns]

Most people don't own that album. He uses the moniker "American Legion." It's a pretty good album, just Graffin and a piano.

[BadReligionAndy]

YAAA..Y

[BadReligionAndy]

My name is after them, I LOVE THEM!

[im not mental]

bad religion are awesome. they are really good live too.

[US Anarchy]

[DISCONNecktie]

bad religion rocks Generator was the greatest album ever

[darkstar9814]

cant wait, Empire was a great album

[.N30C0N.]

Nice... Can't wait.. And hopefully they will do another tour

[Stevethegreat]

Bad Religion, an actually smart punk band, the greatest that ever played

[BlueZephyr]

HELL YES. I'll most likely purchase this album, money or no money.

[Steelrod]

If you guys are interested in older bad religion, check out recipe for hate, eddie vedder lends his pipes on one track and the whole album is bomb. Also the 80-85 collection is stellar. They'll go anywhere the president says, like all good soldiers...

[elcapitan1800]

Bad Religion rocks, and Im looking forward to a new cd. I saw them in concert a couple weeks ago and they were amazing. Haha, I got Greg Hetson's guitar pick. I freaking rule...

[Cookie_master]

im going to see them next month

[megamanxzero35]

so what would be the best bad religion album in your opinion?

[AC/DC Dude8]

i absolutely love the empire strikes first. thats my vote for best album.

[razorkiss]

mabey it will be as good as surffer or process of belief.

[elcapitan1800]

The Gray Race is their best, imo. But there isnt a cd that I dont like

[jklsadj;sadjfak]

empire strikes first is their best. the songs just seem like they spent more time on them instead of just throwing shit together.

[trog_ishloser]

I love Bad Religion. This news has just made my entire week! I hope it kicks ass. But its Bad Religion, so of course it is.

[drunk guitarist]

sounds good

[dewthedew2323]

Bad Religion kicks major ass and always will. Lyrics are always phenomenal as are instruments. Long live the kings!

[canadianpunk071]

The Process of Belief is my favourite Bad Religion album, but I love all of their work. Can't wait for the new album, I'll be sure to pick it up.

[mr_johnny_lee]

Bad Religion are cool, I'm into my prog, instrumental and classic rock but I still listen to them n the Offspring.

[metaljunkie]

amazing this is like the first comment section that i read without any flamming, but yea bad religion is pretty cool, dont own any of their albums, but i did hear a few songs by them and they are pretty good

[Alex101]

I'm excited for the new album! Hope they'll never break up at all!

[mr_johnny_lee]

I only have a few albums but Process of Belief is probably my favourite of em all.

[punkgtrst096]

Good. Bad Religion are one of the few punk bands I still listen to.

[Towlie]

One of the best Punk bands around... its a shame they are in a genre that is commonly associated with the wank we hear coming from modern "punk" bands.

[Justice-For-All]

Without a doubt the greatest punk bnad of all time, can't wait to hear their new stuff. How Could Hell Get Any Worse is by far their best album .

[M3talJ3ff]

Whos bad religion?

[ClashRocker66]

*laughs hysterically*...M3talJ3ff read the article, and i suggest you check out some of their music. Amazing punk band from the early 80's and is almost the only real true to their roots punk rock band around from that era. Check out Recipe For Hate and Gray Race. Those are my two fav albums. Glad to see their going to come up with some new material, should be good.

[supersonic23]

I Cant wait and i hope they play warped tour next year i was mad that they didnt play this year

[Letterbomb11]

Sweet. I love Bad Religion. The Process of Belief was their best album, but everything else was indispensable as well. I'm looking forward to the new disk.

[goku77]

great band

[scumfuc_69]

Stranger Than Fiction was their last good album...there were only 1 or 2 good songs on each album after that. Plus, what the *** is up w/ all their old albums being "remastered" when they already sounded good?

[Forbidden Beat]

Can't wait for their DVD, it's going to be pretty awesome.

[morello_man]

these guys are a great punk band. There stuff is what punk should be...political music. Punk started as political music. "we've got the american jesus
see him on the interstate,
we've got the american jesus
he helped build the president's estate"

[joyful womble]

bad religion is gay emo

[sexpistolramone]

bad religion rock..cant wait

[Dadschge]

I can't believe it,
The way you look sometimes,


I can't wait
to see you again

[mike1991]

should be a good album but it cant be as good as no control thats the best album ever

[ollerom_mot]

can't wait!! *rocks backwards and forwards in chair dramatically* none of their albums were particularly poor, so i don't see why this one should be!!! and hopefully they'll tour again to promote the new album, and i'll be able to see them again!!! they ****ing rocked manchester academy last year!!!

[idlepretension]

After "80-85" they just got so boring. God. "Faith in GOd' was such a good song.

[Rockerman182]

joyful womble is gay, bad religion rock

[Gof]

yay! finaly a new album!
