BAD RELIGION ANNOUNCE DATES WITH RISE AGAINST
Influential Punk Band Tours In Support Of Acclaimed New Album
February 8, 2011 – Los Angeles, CA – Iconic punk champions Bad Religion will be hitting the road along with melodic hardcore upstarts Rise Against for what is sure to be one of the most electrifying and rousing tours of the year. In the last months Bad Religion have celebrated thirty years of innovative and genre defining music, capping the landmark with the release of their critically acclaimed new album The Dissent of Man featuring radio hits “The Devil In Stitches” and “Cyanide.” The band is now set to take its exquisitely inflammatory live act across America, performing a charged mixture of new material and beloved classics.
“The crew rarely relented during its torrid 75-minute set. Graffin channeled Robert Mitchum’s “Night Of The Hunter” preacher on the twisted “Man With A Mission” promising followers eternal salvation as a bevy of slashing riffs ripped at his heels like hellfire. The brutally efficient “Atomic Garden” found the band bringing sonic life to the U.S war machine, dual guitarists nearly drowning Graffin in a howling metallic crunch of feedback-soaked noise.” – Recent live review, Chicago Tribune
