This could be found on the Official Bad Religion Message Board:

Some fan:

From the Dag Nasty board:

We are wrapping up the recording this weekend. As I write this I can hear Brett and Greg in the next room adding the 1,245th track of backing vocals. Only 563 to go says Brian Baker.

Jay Bentley answers:

thats not entirely accurate.

there are only 427 more bgv's to do.

then it's on to bass overdubs!

hahahaha!

-hake-

Some other fan:

Quite an arduous task by the sounds of things.

Jay again:

nah. bakers' just bored, we're done doing the vocals. everything is done, actually. i'm the last one left in the studio.

Some other fan:

Heh... unlucky.

Well, with all my (zero) experience at the whole thing, I reckon you do a Motorhead and just go into the studio and play. Cheaper, and less time consuming.


Once again with my (zero) experience, I can't predict the outcome.

...and Jay again

it all depends how far along the song is written when we hit the record button. sometimes we will start fucking with parts and re-writes, so that can slow the process. we were making up alot of the backgrounds here, so that was probably what was driving baker crazy. he had to make up tons of guitar parts, and it was hard for him to sit around while we were doing backgrounds
