Into the Unknown is the second studio album by Bad Religion, which was released on November 30, 1983. The album marks a distinct departure from the band's previous album; instead of featuring hardcore punk, the album is characterized by slower tempos, use of electronic organ and pianos, and a prog-influenced hard rock sound.

The magnum opus of this Into The Unknown, a 7 minute piece (the longest song in BR history), which is divided into four segments. It features a strong use of an acoustic guitar, along with the synth, and the guitar, and I suppose everyone will agree with me that this song is the most atmospheric song BR has ever done. This is no doubt the worst song in the album. It is a shame, because the idea is not bad par say, but it is so long and so repetitive, that you can not help but finding yourself pushing the skip button. Basically, it has the same riff and rhythm throughout the song, and it has a total lack of lyrics, the ones it has are clearly not enough to save this on. /5.

But Into the Unknown is a terrific record that was perhaps more daring than anyone realized at the time of its release. An extremely influential and interesting record, one that any fan of hard rock should enjoy.

Into the Unknown is an album by the punk rock band Bad Religion from the year 1983. It is so far the least successful album of the band and is due to the conflict-ridden recording sessions, during which the drummer Pete Finestone and bass player Jay Bentley left the band, as crucial for the preliminary separation of the band two years later. In an interview with the German magazine Rock Hard 1989 distances Brett Gurewitz of this album.

Album: Into the Unknown. Duration: 33:30 Year: 1983 ? Bad Religion albums.

Talk about Bad Religion - Into The Unknown


Ynneig
Curious, is it even possible to find a copy of this without the corner cut?

into the unknown... the one and only real good bad religion record... far ahead of everything else they have done after this release... their best ever... just by the way... i bought mine brand new when it came out and it had neither a lyric nor a promo sheet...
Kagaramar
this record is totally bizarre & misguided but great. don't listen to the punk traditionalists. It has the usual top notch Bad Religion songwriting with influences from Sabotage-era Black Sabbath & a touch of new wave.
Uickabrod
Well said, agreed completely. It's very different from every other BR album and EP, but that doesn't mean it's not interesting and memorable in its own right (and if taken on its own terms without expectations of what it "should" sound like). So yeah, I'll never put it on the same level as albums like Suffer, No Control, or Against the Grain, but it's not nearly as bad as lots of purists make it out to be. As you rightly say, the songwriting is particularly notable.

my 2 favorite bad religion records of all time are HOW CAN HELL BE ANY WORST (1981) and SUFFER (1989) oddly i liked this lp into the unknown back when i bought it in 1984 as i did not hear good things about it but i kind of got into it as i was in a pretty spaced out stage at that time in my life, chasing the wild goose and billy gnosis i remember very well and i cant say i have put this record on my turntable since around 1989 or 1990 but man this was great tripping music, pretty screwed up i understand for a bad religion album but hey it was the 80s and some bands even hardcore punk bands did stupid things back then like for example look at the mdc record smoke sighnals in 1986, regardless i have great memories of great times when the topic of this record comes up but NO NO all these years on i would not reccomend this to anyone but it is a long lost gem i feel, i still have my copy in my collection someplace probably still in mint condition as i always recorded stuff i liked on tape back then, the rumor i heard was for reasons i dont know many copies of this where re called in the late 80s and destroyed AT THE BAND AND LABELS REQUEST, also the band ( i was told but i cant confirm) DESTROYED THE MASTER TAPES for this record that was why it never got a cd release and they did not want it to, this record to my understanding is a record they totally want to forget and the only copies around are the copies that did not get re called...........................

What the hell were Bad Religion thinking when they made this record? I'm glad they never made another album that sounded like Into the Unknown, I know that's not their style.
Doktilar
This is their most original and off the wall record!!Over the years( been plenty)They repeated themselves endlessly IMO, they keep on making stale records. I was lost after Suffer.

This is it: The forgotten Bad Religion album. It has never officially been released on CD to this day! 10.000 copies have been pressed and just some of them have been sold back in 1983. Rumor has it that all remaining copies have been destroyed. The truth is that most of them went back to the Epitaph warehouse and have been sold to fans by Mr Brett's girlfriend over the years. She just kept a rest of 300.If you ask fans from back in the days about the music they will tell you it‘s totally crap. In fact the use of uncommon ínstrumentation for a hardcore punk band like synthesizers & acoustic guitars make this album sounding quite untypical for Bad Religion. First time I had the opportunity to check it out I thought it had to be the new Van Halen album.The major problem was the first LP - a hardcore punk milestone! Most of the fans did expect a second "hell" album. But I consider it to be an effort of Bad Religion to develop their style and not (like nowadays) getting lamer and lamer. At a time hardcore was simply getting harder & faster, it was one of the first bands that was looking out for new influences like Alternative Rock.If you like to get a copy please be aware of bootlegs! Most of them were poorly made and sounding even worse. Some of them have a bluish color aberration. If you want to be sure your copy is an original pressing compare your copy with the images I have posted here at discogs and probably check the runout groove etchings. For a nice copy with both inserts expect to pay around 100$ - 200$.

I am a BIG Bad Religion fan and I happen to love this album. The first 3 songs are classic BR & should be heard. It's a shame more people don't appreciate this record. Lost art!
