"Brooks is interviewed in this month's DRUM! magazine, it's a good 5 page interview with some shots of Brooks & BR, also info on his kit etc. It's a fascinating read - lots of interesting stuff in there....apparantly the next BR record will have jazz fills (this may not be true :-)).

Overall, Brooks comes across as a geninely good guy, and especially interesting for drummers (such as myself) to learn a bit from a pro!

The fact that he did Coca-Cola radio jingles let's him down a bit but ahh who cares....coke is very punk rock :-S"

Thanks to Ed for this news!

The url is badger tribute because there is another band named Badger Legion (who have nothing to do with Bad Religion) that has the original url. Anyhoo, thanks for listening! 08/14/2007 at 19:04 The name of the parody band is actually "Badger Legion".

If the new album, then fantastic. Bad Religion have have the weight to do something more experimental - may be including a piano and singing in abstract is progressive and experimental, but in regards to the stretching of musical capacity there's still more to be desired. With Graffin's knowledge of folk and Americana and Brook's background in Jazz, surely Bad Religion could produce another revolutionary punk album.
