Look Yes BR has ripped off some people before, becuase mthey have influences. But look at all their original work they have done!!! That work has far outnumbered their "Epiphany" songs were they stole chords.
Plus many bands such as Green Day, Offspring, Pennywise, and others have ripped off BR alot more than BR did to their influences. And now look how much more popular Green Day and Offpsring are than Bad Religion

Chord progressions that sound okay to our ears are actually quite limited, so it's no surprise to find lots of duplication within a genre of music (or even across genres, for that matter). It's what's done with the lyrics and the instrumental flourishes around the progression that makes each song (hopefully) unique.
Also, Lose As Directed is a stupid song. :)

Hear It and No Way by The Adolescents have similar, almost identical intros and bad religion even copy the back up vocals from it.

a lot of punksongs have the same chords in it. Like most of the green day songs are A G D. Like we're only gonna die. That same structure is on lose as directed G F C. So nobody stole it. It is just a thing that every band uses in a couple of songs. Just a coincidence that Jay made the same bassline as elvis costello

I think that was his way of quoting Picasso who said "good artists borrow, great artists steal"

In the world of music I guess this happen all the time. Check out the song melody in the post-chorus of 21st century and Ramones' I'm affected... Try not to think about it

I do believe Jay Bentley once said whenever he's written songs they end up sounding too much like Elvis Costello.

i think you mean stolen from, not stolen by, considering that 'you belong to me' was recorded 22 years before 'Lose as Directed'...

Ever noticed that the bass-line in 'Lose as Directed' was stolen by
the Elvis Costello song 'You belong to me'? Download it and check it out...
