The record
Title: Bad Religion - How Could Hell Be Any Worse?
Year/Genre/Sub-Genre/City: 1982, Punk, Hardcore Punk Melodic Hardcore, Los Angeles, California 8/26
Condition: New (BC) | Members: Bad Religion (N/A)
Cultural Facts:
-
Family Ties: Bad Religion were still teenagers when they made their first album, and Brett Gurewitz's father reportedly loaned them about $3,000 to finance the recording. That modest family investment helped produce not only the record, but also one of the earliest releases on Gurewitz's fledgling Epitaph label.
-
Life After Music: Singer Greg Graffin pursued science alongside punk for decades, eventually earning a Ph.D. in zoology from Cornell and teaching courses in evolutionary biology. His academic life helps explain why Bad Religion's lyrics so often wrestle with evolution, religion, human behavior, and rationalism instead of standard punk-party subjects.
-
Scene Ecology: How Could Hell Be Any Worse? came out of the early Los Angeles hardcore explosion alongside Black Flag, Circle Jerks, and Adolescents, but Bad Religion were already filling their short, furious songs with harmonies and intellectual lyrics that would eventually become a blueprint for melodic punk.

This place is a little tucked away but easy to find. Though it’s not a big shop, it has a great selection of records at great prices! The guy who helped me out at the counter was friendly and really helpful! If I were in the area again, I would definitely go back.

Power plant records is the best! Great selection of vinyl, the owner and staff are super cool and one of the best things about them are the local shows they put on at Stuft Pizza to support local punk bands like Repeater and Simulator (aka Current Location).
