NEW BAD RELIGION!!!! Bad Religion will release their new album entitled Age Of Unreason on Epitaph Records on May 3. According to the band, “Age Of Unreason delivers a powerful and inspired rejoinder – a political and deeply personal treatise on all they believe in.”

 

“The band has always stood for enlightenment values,” co-songwriter and guitarist Brett Gurewitz explains. “Today, these values of truth, freedom, equality, tolerance, and science are in real danger. This record is our response.”

The first track is called “Chaos From Within” and uses the band’s iconic, fast, and melodic sound to examine the current border wall controversy with the lyrics, “Threat is urgent, existential / with patience wearing thin / but the danger’s elemental / it’s chaos from within.” As co-songwriter and lead singer Greg Graffin says, “Throughout history, walls have been used to keep the barbarians out, but it seems to me the truly barbaric aspect of a civilization is the chaos that comes from within.” You can listen to “Chaos From Within” below.
