Bad Religion The Empire Strikes First By Derek Dubois on Nov 19, 2007 - Updated Oct 15, 2011

I really love this band for its punk style. In general, for me, punk isn't a very special genre of music, because all of the bands tend to sound the same, and it's very hard to find any originality. Well, Bad Relgion is one of those bands. The lyrics are coherent and tend to have a general idea that you can understand (the usual punk subject matters). They're serious about their music, and you can tell through the way it's made. It's very quality stuff. The instrumentation is crisp (generic line up though). The vocals are crisp as well, but they still retain that awesome punk feel that we all know and love. It's a great band that I highly recommend for people who want to get into punk or even if you just want to listen to good music.
