Really Bad Religion

I've recently stumbled upon the blog Strange Reaction, and they've totally made my day with a series of posts about the "lost" sophmore Bad Religion album Into the Unknown. For starters, the album was clearly "lost" for very good reason. I actually kind of like some Bad Religion albums, but I'm not sure that I can ever take them seriously again after this. Consisting of badly done new wave (at least I assume that's the genre they're butchering) that ends up sounding more like cheesy rockers Starship or Europe than it does XTC, the album is absolutely embarrasing. The album cover seems to say it all.



I highly recommend that you listen to the track Time and Disregard. It is either the best or worst song I have ever heard. It almost sounds like teenagers trying to play a Emerson, Lake and Palmer cover for the school talent show, which is in a way kind of awesome. The songs posted here, here or here are also stellar.
