I only recently heard Watch it Die from Recipe For Hate with Eds vocals. Fucking brilliant aye . Anyway, how did this all come about way back then? and do the two bands generally get along pretty well? Graffin is one intelligent lad with some of the best lyrics around .

Bad Religion's last handfull of albums have been FUCKING AMAZING. If you listen to their catalogue, the songwriting has grown more melodic and the production has improved 100%. They sound like they've mastered the recording studio while still hanging on to the vitriol and contempt for the fallibilities of the establishment.
I think it was 1995 in the summer that they opened for PJ. They definitely need to do it again. One of the best bands ever.

yeah... they opened at one of the greatest PJ concerts ever... Soldier Field '95... two days after the Dead's final appearance (saw the Dead, missed the Jam cause it was on a Tuesday or some shit and i had to work)

I thought I was seeing them in Austin 95'. The T-Shirts had Bad religion on it. My ticket said Bad Religion, but when the opening act came out....It was the Ramones. I never heard why there was a change.

Not a bad replacement, though:)

Yup.
"Watch It Die" is a good track, maybe not one of their best, but still pretty great.

I definetly wasn't complaining I just never heard why. Would have liked to hear 21st century digital boy though....other than that I didn't mind the replacement.

How many people here have heard Watch it Die and what do you think of it?
To be honest, I bought BR "Recipe for Hate" just to hear ed's voice on watch it die and american jesus (backing vocals). It turns out that I am really amazed by the whole album. Now I am a fan of BR also, and have almost all of their album. Greg Graffin has very distinct voice and good songwriter. Has anyone notice face similarities between greg and ed? they look like brothers.
and, yesterday I just boought BR DVD "Live at Palladium" which is totaly rock. Ver recomended DVD.

Oh yeah...Greg Graffin has a new album of music that sounds nothing like Bad Religion. From what I've heard, its all acoustic/Americana type stuff, but that's a huge generalization that some might consider inaccurate. Check it out if you have the chance.

bad religion =
i dont always agree with them on every little detail, but they are a great band. greg graffin and the other lyrics writer (i forget his name,,, its something like brett burewitz) are incredible. the lyrics from 'corduroy' seem very bad religion to me.

I have recently gotten into Bad Religion and seing that Pearl Jam toured with them in 1995, I was wondering if anyone had any pictures of them together?
Must have been a hell of a show with both BR and PJ on the bill. I also heard Eddie singing on 'Watch it die' from the album 'Recipe for Hate'. What do people think of this song? I love it!
