5.0 out of 5 stars definitively badass. Milestone. , November 3, 2004

By	Campbell Roark "tri-zeta" (from under the floorboards and through the woods...) - See all my reviews

Perfection. Snotty. Furious. High-minded. Vitriolic. Probably kick-started thousands of bands. And what perfect f^(king cover @rt. The lyrics to this hit you like a brick to the back of the head, but a brick that you have come to love and cherish.

"The masses are obsequious, contented in their sleep. The vortex of their minds ensconced within the murky deep."

"I don't know if the billions will survive but I'll believe in God when 1 and 1 are 5."

Awesome. Hells yes. Right before they started reinventing themselves on NO CONTROL and making the world's definitive hardcore album: "Against the Grain"... Before it all, there was this. Takes me back to high school, sitting in my mom's basement, listening to BR and consulting a dictionary for the big words.

I don't know you, punk- and I don't care how bad you may think BR have become over the course of the 90's (I stand by most of their releases): we can all put aside our differences and agree that this album is one of those rarities that makes life worthwhile.

5.0 out of 5 stars the blueprint, August 24, 2005

By	Jeema (OH) - See all my reviews

This CD is basically the So-Cal skate-punk blueprint and probably the best Bad Religion CD ever, period. Every track is loud, angry, straight-ahead, and catchy as heck. The most surprising thing, though, is that the subject matter of a lot of these songs seems almost more pertinent today than it was in 1988, in songs like "You Are the Government", "1000 More Fools", "What Can You Do?". Take a listen and hear for yourself...

5.0 out of 5 stars deserves 10 stars, July 27, 2005

By	Cynthia - See all my reviews

"Suffer" is one of the greatest punk albums ever made. Period. Greg's vocals, wow, what can I say. The man can f***ing sing. The lyrics are incredibly powerful, and mostly about self-reliance and thinking for yourself. The title track is the best song. Next, and a very close second, is my favorite BR song: "You Are (The Government)." This song is really short, but very powerful. "You are the government, you are jurisprudence, you are the volition, you are jurisdiction, and I make a difference too." The third best song for me is "Do What You Want." I love the lyrics - "Do what you want, but don't do it around me . . . Do what you must, do all you can. Break all the f***ing rules and go to hell with Superman and die like a champion ya hey!" This album is so great that I have owned several copies over the years - I listen to it so much that I keep wearing it out. Do yourself a favor and buy "Suffer" right now.
