Jason Epstein was kind enough to send us a heads up about an interview that he did for punknews.org. The interview with Jay and Brian took place on October 20th, the first of the three "era-shows" in New York.
They talk about the progression and evolution of their music, the new album, the recent free tribute album, punk rock, Brian's favorite BR record (RFH) and some more.
For example Brian on Into The Unknown: "I've never heard it and I don't own it and I heard it to learn the song. And also 'cuz I'm not the original guy so why would I listen if it wasn't required listening?"
But also about agreeing with the message of songs in terms of religion and about the different beliefs of band members.
They talk about dropping one of Graffin's songs around the No Control or Against The grain timeframe because of disagreement about the content. Jay: "There was a song - and I can't for the life of me remember the name of it - that Graffin wrote and it was very Jesus oriented (...) The lyrics were 'Jesus/why'd you have to go and do that/Jesus/where'd you go and get those strange ideas'...I was like....'OK.' And Hetson was just...'NO. (...) I can't even get behind this at all'."
Check out the entire interview on punknews.org.

OK. What was one of the best Bad Religion shows you can ever remember playing?
Brian: Montreal was really good.
Jay: A couple days ago?
Brian: Yeah.

Or it could be the other members told him it's not worth listening to and he decided to take their word for it.

I don't understand. He doesn't want to listen because it is not 'required'? So then he heard from other people that is was bad and never bothered to check it out?I agree he is a duck!

[quote=Brett Religion]One of the best BR interviews in the last few years... Finally we got to learn something new. Kudos to Dante3000! ;)[/quote]Which part? About not all of them being Atheists? I thought we knew that already. At least I did. Brett has talked about spirituality (which is way different from religion, of course) which is a lot different from being an atheist.
