Primeira fase (1980-1985) O Bad Religion foi formado em Los Angeles, Califórnia, em 1980 pelos estudantes do ensino secundário Greg Graffin (vocal), Jay Bentley (baixo), Jay Ziskrout (bateria) e Brett Gurewitz (guitarra), este último também conhecido como "Mr. Brett". Suas maiores influências estão nas primeiras bandas de punk rock tais como Ramones, Black Flag e The Clash. Fora do movimento punk, suas influências também incluem Beach Boys, Elvis Costello, Todd Rundgren, The Jam e Nick Lowe, e autores como Jack Kerouac.

ACGACGACGACG I was born on planet earth, a rotating ball where man comes first
DCGACG It's been around for a long, long time
DBCBA But now it's time to watch it die
(continue w/ lyrics)
I saw a man on the big blue screen, he ruled the world economy He said the rich would never concede, but someday soon you'll be put to sleep
I've seen the life of a forest green and the adaptations of the deep blue sea And who knows who is the fittest, they will all soon be put to rest
AGEFCBB On a plunging flight and we're sitting in the pilot's seat
AGEG A In the midst of life, people on a dark horizon praying somebody will save their lives
(main rythm w/ lyrics) I was born on planet earth at a drastic time full of plastic mirth And everyday I've seen increasing signs and you would too if you'd open your eyes You had a chance, you did not try, so now it's time to watch it die
