Artist: Bad Religion

When rumors about the first ever BottleRock Napa festival began to circulate, they were impressive: early flyers listed Dave Matthews Band and Pearl Jam as headliners (neither was ever confirmed). Still, the festival had the attention of the Napa Valley and surrounding music lovers long ago. Once the final lineup had been released and tickets [...] The post BottleRock 2013 Review: Napa's Inaugural Music, Wine, and Food Festival appeared first on Spinning Platters .

Bad Religion played Philadelphia this past Monday, and I missed it.  I've been feeling terrible about it, so I've been pretty much listening to Bad Religion non-stop all week.  The album of choice I've been spinning is their highly influential Suffer. Released back in 1988, Suffer was Bad Religion's third full length album and the one that really defined the sound of modern South Cali punk.  The songs are more polished and more melodic than their hardcore masterpiece How Can Hell Be Any Worse , and in my opinion features some of [...]

Despite the weather, fans packed themselves inside an expo hall for MUSINK’s strong triple-bill of Guttermouth, The Vandals, and Bad Religion. Thankfully held inside to shield from the elements, the music portion of the tattoo/piercing convention was a clear winner on Friday, as the crowd was thick early on. Bad Religion simply owned Night One. Kicking off a massive world tour for latest release, True North, frontman Greg Graffin and the rest of the band proved to be a force to be reckoned with.

When we spoke with Frida Sundemo a few weeks ago, she worried for the internet's brainwashing capabilities – of the reality that, in fact, so-called tastemakers can often so heavily influence opinion, that we are left unsure as to what we could and shouldn't like – let alone what we actually do or don't. And I often worry of the internet's endlessness – an abiding infinity pumping out more music in a day than we could fully appreciate in an aeon. How do artists therefore accrue any meaningful attention, and how do they ensure that their [...]
