À propos de cet audio

From their beginnings as teenagers experimenting in a San Fernando Valley garage dubbed "The Hell Hole" to headlining major music festivals around the world, discover the whole story of Bad Religion's 40-year career in irreverent style.

Do What You Want's principal storytellers are the four voices that define Bad Religion: Greg Graffin, a Wisconsin kid who sang in the choir and became an LA punk rock icon while he was still a teenager; Brett Gurewitz, a high school dropout who founded the independent punk label Epitaph Records and went on to become a record mogul; Jay Bentley, a surfer and skater who gained recognition as much for his bass skills as for his antics on and off the stage; and Brian Baker, a founding member of Minor Threat who joined the band in 1994 and brings a fresh perspective as an intimate outsider.

With a unique blend of melodic hardcore and thought-provoking lyrics, Bad Religion paved the way for the punk rock explosion of the 1990s, opening the door for bands like NOFX, The Offspring, Rancid, Green Day, and Blink-182 to reach wider audiences. They showed the world what punk could be, and they continue to spread their message one song, one show, one tour at a time.

Ce que les critiques en disent

"Ruland serves up a heady, revelatory collaboration with the enduring punk band Bad Religion...his testament to the value of hard work and independent thinking offers a thrilling alternative to the conventional rise-and-fall rock narrative." (Publishers Weekly, "Summer Reads Staff Pick")

"[A] fascinating story...the band has overcome a lot of challenges over the years, and this sufficient narrative documents every one of them." (Kirkus)

"A breezy and enjoyable oral history of being in one of the most respected and enduring punk acts in American history." (A.V. Club)

A deep dive that covers the bands history. The whole story covering lineup changes and albums in a chronological order. You will go back and listen to records with an entirely new appreciation. Amazing level of detail that will give you a whole new appreciation for these punk rock legends.

This is one of the most arrogant biographies I’ve ever read. I’ve never seen a band with such an inflated sense of self importance. They tell us how they’re more important than Nirvana. How they’re the punk rock Beatles. How they saved a guitar player from the Cult. Throw in some stolen Tony Wilson quotes and you have this piece of hyperbolic garbage. I might have liked this when I was 13. As an adult you should avoid this.

Arrogance
