Bad Religion - How Could Hell Be Any Worse?


How Could Hell Be Any Worse? is the first full-length album released by influential punk band Bad Religion. It was financed by a $1,000 loan by guitarist Brett Gurewitz's father. Its success surprised the band when it sold 10,000 copies in under a year. The sound of the record was vastly improved from their first release, 1981's self-titled EP. The record was originally released as an LP in 1982 and again in 1988[1] with a different catalogue number and Epitaph's current address. It was released on CD as part of the 1991 compilation, '80-'85, and was remastered for the 2004 re-issue of this album.

How Could Hell Be Any Worse? is the band's first album recorded with Pete Finestone on drums and also their only full-length album to date with original member Jay Ziskrout, who played drums on each track not recorded with Finestone. Though not yet credited as a member of the band, future guitarist Greg Hetson, who was in Circle Jerks during this time, also did a guitar solo on "Part III".

"We're Only Gonna Die," and "Fuck Armageddon... This Is Hell," became fan favorites and are staples of the band's live show to this day. Many later punk groups such cite this album as their main influence. On the back of the cover there is a picture inspired by Dante's Divine Comedy.

Bad Religion - 80-85

80-85 is the first compilation album by Bad Religion, released in 1991 after the band had risen to success. It contains a list of tracks from their early recordings before the come-back of the 1988 release Suffer.

80-85 includes the entire How Could Hell Be Any Worse? album as well as two official EPs (Bad Religion and Back to the Known), plus three tracks from the Public Service compilation. 80-85 does not include their second album, Into the Unknown, partly due to its drastically different style and unpopularity, but is mentioned in the booklet.

80-85 just recently went out of print. On April 6, 2004, a remastered version of this album was released. It shares the same name as their 1982 debut How Could Hell Be Any Worse? and includes the same track listing as 80-85. Reissues of their post-1985 releases – Suffer, No Control, Against the Grain and Generator – were released on the same day as the 2004 remastered version of this album.

Released November 12, 1991
Recorded 1981-1984
Genre Punk rock
Length 56:24
Label Epitaph
Producer Bad Religion
