Das Bandlogo von Bad Religion war lange Zeit überall zu sehen - auf Schultischen, Klos und Mauern: ein an ein Verkehrszeichen angelehntes, durchgestrichenes Kreuz. Die Kalifornier gehören zu den Paten jener Form des Westcoast-Punk, der auch als Melodic Hardcore bezeichnet wird. Weitere bekannte Bands jenes Genres, darunter NOFX, Millencolin oder Pennywise, zählen Bad Religion zu ihren Haupteinflüssen.
1980 in Los Angeles gegründet, werden Bad Religion schnell in der kalifornischen Szene bekannt. Es dauert ein paar Alben, bis sie ihren typischen, halsbrecherisch schnellen Stil mit den melodischen, mehrstimmigen Gesängen gefunden haben. Das packende Amalgam aus Hardcore Punk und poppigen Mitsing-Melodien wird zur Blaupause des modernen Punk Rock. Kopf der Band ist Sänger Greg Graffin, der hauptberuflich Biologie-Professor ist und sich in seinen Texten von Anfang an auf eine sehr intelligente Art mit Themen wie Umweltzerstörung, religiösem Fanatismus und Turbokapitalismus auseinandersetzt.
Das Album, das der Band den internationalen Durchbruch verschafft, ist "Suffer" von 1988. Das Album ist ein Meilenstein im Melodic Harcore-Genre und beeinflusst Punkbands auf der ganzen Welt, und letztendlich läuten Bad Religion damit das Punk-Revival der Neunziger ein. Ihr größter internationaler Hit wird jedoch einige Jahre später die Neuauflage ihres Klassikers "Punk Rock Song" im Jahr 1996.
Bad Religion touren bis heute unermüdlich um die Welt und haben besonders in Deutschland eine große Fanbasis. Trotz weiterer musikalischer Projekte der einzelnen Bandmitglieder halten Bad Religion zusammen und bringen immer wieder von der Kritik gelobte Alben heraus.

[@elmoblatch9787]

In the late 80s, I would literally sit there with a dictionary and go through their lyrics. My vocabulary expanded.

[@kristencurley1588]

I still do this lol

[@KyleBenzien]

Bring the dissident from slumber my friend!

[@nowave1465]

This guy has always had such a unique voice he doesn't have to scream and it's still great

[@Cynthia-yr8nk]

Yes! Yes! Yes! I agree and I said this many times before... Right on and rock on🤘

[@testatercio]

best band in the world!

[@DoubbleDdragon]

@irlan hakim Jesus was Jew also Mohammed

[@David-no7nu]

No band in any genre has written as many great songs as BR.

[@Papayap0drida]

Agreed, their lyrics are fantastic

[@sou1kand3]

Finding this band was unbelievable for a list of reasons--the amount of Top Level songs they have is one of them. 🤘

[@nikoma_]

Agree.

[@ChrisPatrick]

their body of work is unparalleled in this or any genre

[@josephsimmons9241]

100 % agree. My biased opinion (born at the same time and place as the band itself) is that they are the greatest band of all time. Unparalleled inspiring lyrics and upbeat music have set the tone for my life. Only Led Zeppelin, RHCP, and the Stones may have as many excellent songs, but I doubt it still.

[@generasimusik90an89]

Badass Religion 🤘I'am Christian but one of my fave band is BR ...❤️ from Indonesia 🇮🇩

[@ninjaskeleton6140]

I wish Bad Religion would release a massive multi-disc retrospective dvd/blu-ray of live performances spanning their entire career. It could include shows like this one and many others. I especially like seeing them play random songs from their back catalogue that they don’t often play live anymore. A lot of my favourite live footage of Bad Religion is from the 1990s up to about the year 2000, this is what I look for most often on youtube when I’m looking for live BR videos. They seem to have a big following in Germany and the energy at those shows is always fantastic. I just wish I could own high quality copies of these gigs on dvd.

[@markvandermolen7181]

This is probably their best pro-shot show on KZbin. Best sound, in tune backing vocals, best editing. Great setlist.

[@KyleBenzien]

Absolutely love this setlist!

I just saw them days ago and Greg still have an amazing voice!!! he's incredible!!!!

This drummer insane.. Those guys are insane and their music is the best!

[@slashtrio]

This is a great live performance. Graffin has such great vocals. He’s really kept his vocals in tack as he has aged, which isn’t easy to do for many rock singers.

00:54:30 is definitely not Generator- it is Along the Way. Listed incorrectly in this comment as well as in the video.

I saw these guys with my best buddy in sacramento in the 90s, very fun concert... I miss those days, I remember just being packed and drenched in sweat.

So good!

[@gabrielnolasco9732]

Dude what a rock solid performance. My god

[@simonsmith2642]

They made the promise 30+ years ago that their music would not change one iota.. They kept that promise. Thats so rare… Yeah they have changed drummers a few times or more, but imagine playing that every day on tour, thats a beating on your body non stop and brutal on your body. Other tan that they are still touring Im going in September. They have a lot more gray hair and some more wrinkles but they have maintained against the grain. Legendary. Promise made, promise kept.

[@thesuccessfulbarber]

This rocks

[@unicajamalaga2]

Офигеть, Новые Темные Времена просто бомба! Прямо отсыл к раннему хардкор - творчеству БР 88 года.. просто мощнейшая песня с великолепной мелодией!!

[@Punkrocklyrics]

Amazing show!

@irlan hakim brother, you are welcome to your beliefs. Proselytizing in the comment section of a punk band's live show is not going to get you amywhere, though.

Danke fürs hochladen dieser großartigen Show! Ich freu mich mega, sie in der Qualität ansehen zu können :) Gibt es in den Rockpalast Archiven noch das Konzert von NOFX aus 1993? Das geistert auf youtube noch als Mitschnitt rum, leider nicht so hochwertig. Ein Reupload davon wäre das Größte

1:02:55 the most difficult beginning in whole punk rock era 😆

Brooks is a fuckin machine

War das in AREA4? Dann habe ich das Konzert wohl auch gehört. Ich habe derzeit zwischen Olfen und Lüdinghausen in einem Ferienpark gewohnt. Gut zehn Kilometer vom Veranstaltungsort entfernt, aber konnte es in der Nacht trotzdem hören :-D

Where is los Angeles is...🔥🔥🔥

[@H1JOSH1]

Wow, News From The Front! How that song ended up a B-side I'll never know.

[@minkavleren]

whoever made the same typo with track 23 is definitely not a Bad Religion fan, track 23 is NOT 'Generator', its 'Along the Way'. track 24 is 'Generator'.

[@mccalltrader]

Ah man, no LA is burning😔

[@Chromodar]

Every single time I listen to any live version of Generator with Brooks on drums I'm wondering what the hell he's trying to do at the end when the last "woah's" are done. No other BR drummer has played it like this, and Brooks does it consistently, so it must be a deliberate choice he made. But why tho? I think it sounds really bad. Which is weird when he's probably the best drummer the band has had. 58:45 is the part I'm talking about.

[@MrJimbo666]

I agree there is some fills that i hate too.. he's a really good drummer but his style fits better heavy metal than punk imo.

[@lordvonundzu4348]

No offense: everytime I read these kind of comments I realize that commercial success has its price as musical connoisseurs stand in the crowd and think about (non)sense of a freaky drumm-fill lasting a few seconds during a 1hour+ concert...maybe it fits his own style and he likes it...personal expression and such...Punk!

[@Chromodar]

@@lordvonundzu4348 In this particular case it straight up comes across as him turning into a 12 year old kid who had too much sugar and is taking it out on the drum kit as hard and fast as he can. What is he expressing exactly? Also, I'm not "standing in the crowd". My comment is built on watching countless hours of BR live footage from various concerts at various points in time with different band members, giving me ample opportunities to notice these things. Let me ask you a question from genuine curiosity: If you go to 58:27 where the oozin' aahs end and focus on listening to the drums, do you then legitimately think it sounds _good_ when he turns into an ape for 5 seconds at 58:46? To me there are no technical details, he's literally just going fast and as hard as he can. The singular reason I don't suspect him of being coked to the eyeballs is that he only does it in this one short section of this one song. If I understood what he was trying to do with it, maybe I would mind it less. I just don't. All I get from him is "ME BANG DRUM AAAAAAH!!!".

[@kerfuffle7362]

It's obvious he's a great drummer but Generator never hit the same, for me at least, with Brooks. I much prefer the way Bobby played it

[@unicajamalaga2]

Old songs are way better with Pete and Bob...wackerman is great studio drummer but too much evil demons in his arms )) too much disposable fills at live performance thou...

[@Vovanchib]

Where is a loa Angeles are burning?

[@smp_legendary4421]

I know right? LA is burning is one of their best songs. I don't think it was famous yet. Cause LA is burning is from Empire strikes first which would only have been released 4 years before this concert.

[@robinson1875]

Is that A7X drummer? 🔥

[@MrNatego1]

Yes. Brooks Wackerman. He was in BR for years before A7X

[@unicajamalaga2]

Guitar loses strings row 🙄

[@nebojsacato9961]

Haha, Brian Baker is way out of tune and doesn't even notice 'til about the 2nd chorus. It looks like Hetson had to tell him to tune the guitar. Guess this was before Baker's got-clean phase. Not trying to be mean, love the guy.

[@nebojsacato9961]

Or maybe he forgot to switch guitars and played in a different tuning. The same happens at the start of Struck a nerve, only he unplugs immediately and switches guitars.

Ok

[@dionprass]

25:06

[@plasterofparisify]

It's not out of tune it was deliberately tuned down because they aren't playing in a bubble it's hot they are playing songs back to back with sometimes no break at all and don't forget they are older and even with all of that they are killing it so instead of talking shit ask yourself what the fuck have you ever done that anyone would even care enough about to critique? If the answer is nothing then keep your crap to yourself.
