Bad Religion

1 songs

Formed in Los Angeles, CA in 1980, Bad Religion has been a legendary punk rock institution for four decades. Despite numerous lineup changes over the years – Greg Graffin is the only member to have appeared on every Bad Religion record – the group is considered one of the most influential and consistent bands in the history of the genre. Since 1980, Bad Religion has released 16 studio albums and several live albums, EPs, and compilations, making them one of the most prolific as well.

Bad Religion is best known for intelligent lyrics (often boasting an impressive vocabulary, especially in their earlier days, that has earned them the epithet “thesaurus rock”), fierce critique not only of religion but of dogmatic thought in general, and three part harmonies (often referred to in their album liner notes as “Oozin' ahs”).
