{"product_id":"gray-race-1","title":"Gray Race","description":"Bad Religion: Greg Graffin (vocals); Greg Hetson, Brian Baker (guitar); Jay Bentley (bass); Bobby Schayer (drums).\u003cbr\u003eRecorded at Electric Lady Studios, New York, New York in October and November 1995.\u003cbr\u003eWith their ninth album, this Los Angeles-based hardcore band continue their distinctive recipe of slashing, frenetic guitar, inviting vocal harmonies and socially-conscious lyrics. THE GRAY RACE showcases Bad Religion's chaotic, two-guitar punk, which is driven by an intense, high-strung urgency; each track provides just the right amount of unapologetic melodicism along with Greg Graffin's rough-voiced yet lucid vocals.\u003cbr\u003eThe band's sound is loud, fast, and basically simple, in contrast to the broad, complex themes they tackle. Many songs are a variation on the \"think for yourself\" motif, including \"A Walk,\" a defiant rant against the system (\"Who the hell are you to tell me what to do?\/You can't even tie your own haggard shoes\/Your closet is a mess, and your backyard's falling down\"). There are also brilliant feats of multisyllabic rhyming here, betraying Graffin's striking intellect as a lyricist, as on \"Them And Us\": \"Despite that he saw blatant similarity\/He struggled to find a distinctive moiety\/All he found was vulgar superficiality.\"","brand":"MovieMars","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45716871741727,"sku":"045778699612","price":29.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0679\/7833\/0399\/files\/c3de5575509993d22fedc7c315135491.jpg?v=1782392056","url":"https:\/\/www.moviemars.com\/products\/gray-race-1","provider":"MovieMars","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
