WHO: SOCIAL DISTORTION & BAD RELIGION
WHAT: The enduring L.A. punk band Social Distortion has overcome numerous personnel shifts, the demise of the Los Angeles hardcore scene that spawned them, and the heroin addiction of singer/guitarist/bandleader Mike Ness to achieve a measure of mainstream acceptance for their rootsy, hard-hitting punk without compromise. Inspired by the fertile L.A. punk scene, When the group finally recorded its debut album, Mommy’s Little Monster their music was often described as a punk version of the Rolling Stones, and “Another State of Mind” was one of the few punk videos to air on MTV at that time. If you’ve been a fan of Social Distortion for any time at all, you know that Mike Ness is into authenticity: authentic sounds, authentic images, authentic tales of outlaws, cars and guitars — things that endure, things that the passage of time only serves to make more real. These days you can often find Ness onstage captaining the never-more-powerful Social Distortion. There’s no map for sustainability in the world of punk rock, no frayed handbook to guide bands through what happens in the extremely unlikely event that they fail to burn out. So Social Distortion are writing their own, remaining steadfast in their loud, highly tattooed corner of rock n’ roll and refusing to make any concessions to time.
Since Bad Religion’s formative years they have steadfastly advocated for humanism, reason, and individualism. Now, when these values are in decline and nationalism and bigotry are on the rise, Bad Religion’s message has never been more essential. “The band has always stood for enlightenment values,” co-songwriter and guitarist Brett Gurewitz explains. “Today, these values of truth, freedom, equality, tolerance, and science, are in real danger.” Bad Rerligion’s songs are both furious and meticulously crafted to address the issues of today!. Society’s step backwards has propelled the legendary band decidedly forward.
