How Could Hell Be Any Worse?

Bad Religion

Recorded on a limited budget in a small Los Angeles studio, the album highlights technical precision mixed with youthful angst. It provides a look at the early Southern California hardcore scene in its most authentic form.

These tracks set the tone for melodic punk that would later gain mainstream attention. The DIY production remains vital, emphasizing the sharp, aggressive delivery that established the band long before they reached wider audiences.
