Now another classic fucker from the great wide ocean of the outsider-league and we're talkin' bout Bad Religion with their fourth record and it's not difficult to write a positive review. If you like Suffer you will also like No Control and the Eighties were the best time for Bad Religion from Los Angeles in my opinion. It's stylistically faster than its predecessor, owing more to HardcorePunk. Additionally, it was the bands first album not to feature a line-up change from the previous one. "This record simply and forcefully continue the shift, delivering a pummel of melodic songwriting made sharp by Greg Graffin's populist cynicism and the stinging barbs of a twin-guitar strike." (Johnny Loftus) A sentence that sums up fifteen songs in a short, fitting way and it's no wonder this piece of wax has received generally favorable reviews in the years since its initial release and I always enjoy listening to the aggressive and expressive pieces, that helps me survive, you know (note: this is an old vinyl rip in 192kBit/s but kicks excellent) Today's a long strawberry soccer day - I'll be back!
