Thought-Provoking, Straight-Forward Punk, May 4, 2008
This review is from: Gray Race (Audio CD)
Bad Religion is one of the must have classic bands of the punk world. They have been around longer than most of the "one hit wonder" Southern Cali punk rock groups. They write just plain simple, but good punk rock songs. Most of their songs are socially conscious on the political side of the fence, rather than love ballads. They started in Southern California in the 1980's and have had several line-up changes, but the most vital member of the band has remained- singer Greg Graffin.
Graffin wrote all fifteen songs on The Gray Race as well as lending his constant powerful vocals. It has songs like "Walk", with its energy and pop sense, yet still remaining on the punk side and "Punk Rock Song" that is furious. but of course has Graffin's intelligent lyrics about world problems. Graffin's voice is always solid and simple, never whiny or annoying like some other punk/alternative rock singers. The album is like all other Bad Religion albums -- entertaining with it's thought-provoking, straight-forward punk rock music.
