Preeminent punk band Bad Religion are coming to The Catalyst in Santa Cruz on April 15 with special guest OFF! In a world still brimming with rampant anti-intellectualism, inequality and oppression, the band’s signature brand of sonically charged humanist dissent seems as relevant as ever.
Quintessential Los Angeles punk rock pioneers Bad Religion formed in 1980 in the suburbs of Los Angeles by teenage friends. Bad Religion has become synonymous with intelligent and provocative West Coast punk rock and are considered one of the most influential and important bands in the genre. Over the past three decades the band has continually pushed social boundaries and questioned authority and beliefs armed only with propulsive guitars, charging drumbeats, thoughtful lyrics and an undying will to inspire and provoke anyone who will listen.
Bad Religion was a major force in reinvigorating the modern punk movement, produced beloved international hits such as “Infected,†"21st Century (Digital Boy)" and “Sorrow†and has maintained an impassioned worldwide following of young and old who continue embrace a music that gives voice to, and celebrates, their dissent. Cementing their place in history as a groundbreaking band who helped create a movement in Los Angeles with classic releases like How Could Hell Be Any Worse?, Suffer, Recipe for Hate, Stranger Than Fiction, Process of Belief, The Dissent of Man, True North, and Christmas Songs, Bad Religion continue to inspire and create with a unique style that continues to cross boundaries and transcends genres.
