Negative Positive
Title: Melodic and Relevant
Review: I am not much into punk. But, if there ever was an institution in punk, it would be Bad Religion. Their music is incredibly powerful and melodic, but not "poppy" melodic a'la Green Day. Their melodies are more ominous, a bit dark. The lyrics are obviously very important for them, too. Their music, being punk, is not virtuoso music, and that is just the point. Simple, like a punch in the face, and the effect is exhilarating. I have this one cd of them only, although I've heard others. But, like I said, I am not heavily into punk. I love the Sex Pistols,The Ramones, Fugazi, Descendants, Pennywise, Black Flag, and a bit of Green Day, but that's about it. Bad Religion is an institution in punk, because they've been very consistent and they've been around a long time, and always true to their vision. Punk was never dead. Just ask Bad Religion.
