Our Take

BAD RELIGION's latest offering, "No Substance," is a journey into the depths of mediocrity that leaves us questioning if substance ever existed in the first place. With lyrics that sound like they were pulled from a teenager's angsty journal and melodies that feel as predictable as a Sunday roast, this record falls flat faster than a soufflé left in the oven too long.

The band, known for their insightful social commentary and infectious punk spirit, seems to have lost their edge on this one. Tracks like "The Biggest Killer in American History" and "Shades of Truth" feel like recycled versions of their former glory, lacking the punch and urgency that once defined their sound.

Even the production on this album feels lacklustre, with the guitars sounding muddy and the vocals getting lost in the mix. It's a shame to see a band with such a rich history release an album that feels more like a footnote than a headline.

In a sea of cookie-cutter punk bands, BAD RELIGION used to stand out for their intelligence and passion. Unfortunately, "No Substance" fails to live up to the band's legacy, leaving us craving a return to form that may never come. Stick to their classic albums, and leave this one on the shelf.
