Do What You Want: The Story of Bad Religion reveals the ups and
downs of the band's forty-year career. From their beginnings as
teenagers jamming in a San Fernando Valley garage dubbed "The Hell
Hole" to headlining major music festivals around the world, Do What
You Want tells the whole story in irreverent style. While Do What
You Want tracks down nearly all of Bad Religion's members past and
present, the chief storytellers are the four voices that define Bad
Religion: Greg Graffin, a Wisconsin kid who sang in the choir and
became an L.A. punk rock icon while he was still a teenager; Brett
Gurewitz, a high school dropout who founded the independent punk
label Epitaph Records and went on to become a record mogul; Jay
Bentley, a surfer and skater who gained recognition as much for his
bass skills as for his onstage antics; and Brian Baker, a founding
member of Minor Threat who joined the band in 1994 and brings a
fresh perspective as an intimate outsider. With a unique blend of
melodic hardcore and thought-provoking lyrics, Bad Religion paved
the way for the punk rock explosion of the 1990s, opening the door
for bands like NOFX, The Offspring, Rancid, Green Day, and
Blink-182 to reach wider audiences. They showed the world what punk
could be, and they continue to spread their message one song, one
show, one tour at a time -- with no signs of stopping.
