That's the entire thing about that album, though, it's not far off that. Subtlety of a sledgehammer.

Yes, Bad Religion is coming to perform at my home city! One of the bands I've just got to see live, never done it before.
If this is anywhere near as good as Dissent (easily my #1 BR album), then it will be #1 or #2 on my list. I already like what I've heard (only heard Vanity, but it's badass). Will be picking this one up.
Dissent's really good and all (as all Bad Religion's stuff has been, like, ever - yep, Atlantic years defender), but it's probably the weaker of their four since Process. I love the interesting softer almost country-vibe it has like Recipe For Hate, they haven't done that in a long time, but a lot of it was kind of middle-of-the-road, too.
I'm loving just about all of the new stuff so far, aside from "Fuck You" which, while Bad Religion to a tee, it gets old after about the third or fourth listen and is pretty bland for them.
I'm a little worried the album might turn out a little too "Raaah, see, we can still rock out hardcore-stylez when we're old, uh, yo", and not have that same heavier-than-usual-but-still-pretty-mature-and-evolving vibe that New Maps did. Stuff like "Dept. Of False Hope" (which is friggin' great) are alleviating that a lot, though. But still, psyched as always for new BR, along with Social D and The Offspring they're about the only punk rock really worth a damn.
Wow, thanks! That's really nice of Epitaph and BR. I'm going to listen to it right now. :D
