Bad Religion Still Relevant After All These Years

Bad Religion just released their new album, The Dissent of Man. It's the same melodic punk with better-than-average lyrics the band always puts out, and you know what? I'm cool with that.

Bad Religion, Spin and MySpace are releasing a Bad Religion Tribute entitled Germs of Perfection, which will include Ted Leo among others. One song a day (except weekends) is streaming. October 19th should see the whole album as a free download on both MySpace Music’s homepage and through SPIN.com. You can find out more about the covers album here, below are a couple cover versions from Germs of Perfection. Like Ted Leo, Frank Turner doing Bad Religion isn't a big surprise, but I wouldn't have guessed Tegan & Sara would tackle primal punk tune Suffer. Hope there's some more WTF choices coming.
