Bad Religion shares new song


Bad Religion has released their new single titled “The Profane Rights of Man”.  A worried look at the state of human rights in America, “The Profane Rights of Man” continues the band’s long-held commitment to incisively topical songwriting.
With its breakneck rhythms, mournful harmonies, and serpentine guitar work, “The Profane Rights of Man” is based on a historical document from 1789: a foundational principle of democracy known as “The Universal Rights of Man.”



Vocalist and songwriter Greg Graffin explains, “Since we’re a band that has a longstanding tradition of championing the enlightenment, we wanted to emphasize that this document establishes that our society is based on a profane rather than a sacred theological justification for human rights. In sum, the song is about Bad Religion’s belief in a secular basis for the protection of human rights for all people.”
Earlier this year Bad Religion released “The Kids Are Alt-Right,” a “catchy and deeply satisfying melody-surge about new permutations of racism” as reported by Stereogum. They are currently in the studio working on new music.
Bad Religion began in the sprawling suburbs surrounding Los Angeles, with the teenage punks offering an impassioned counterpoint to a culture of consumerism and anti-intellectualism. Founding members Greg Graffin, Brett Gurewitz, and Jay Bentley were eventually joined by guitarists Brian Baker of Minor Threat, Mike Dimkich of The Cult, and the supremely talented drummer Jamie Miller of …And You Will Know Us by the Trail of Dead. Over the years, Bad Religion proved to be a major force in reinvigorating the modern punk movement, producing beloved international hits like “Infected,” “21st Century (Digital Boy),” and “Sorrow,” and building a devoted worldwide following.
