I'm a relatively new BR fan, so I didn't have the original release of 'Generator'. I picked this up the other day, though, and it was really worth it. All the songs are great, and it even comes with 2 "alternative takes", of Fertile Crescent and Heaven is Falling. The alternative takes might even be better than the originals.
The best songs from this CD are, in my opinion, Generator (obviously), No Direction, Tomorrow, Heaven is Falling, Atomic Garden, The Answer (one of their absolute best songs), Fertile Crescent and Only Entertainment. This CD probably isn't for you if you have the original release, unless you are a hardcore fan that wants every edition of all of BR's albums. If you are a new fan, or down own a copy of Generator, I highly recommend picking this one up

This album is slower, darker, more melodic, etc, that any previous record by them except maybe INTO THE UNKNOWN, but that's a different story. This album is beautifully constructed and it just might be my favorite record of theirs. It's almost a concept album of sorts, it came out at a time when there was a lot of change happening in the world, and with the Gulf War and widespread, overindulged, mindless patriotism was taking over the USA, and Greg G was quoted as saying something like he felt like moving out of the country because of how ashamed he was at the people living there. Anyway, the emotions of the time are definately evident in this one of a kind record, just listen for yourself. Also Bobby Schayer takes over at drums, that is another plus.
1. Generator (10/10)
2. Too Much to Ask (10/10)
3. No Direction (10/10)
4. Tomorrow (9/10)
5. Two Babies in the Dark (10/10)
6. Heaven Is Falling (10/10)
7. Atomic Garden (10/10)
8. Answer (10/10)
9. Fertile Cresent (10/10)

Bad Religion is one of those band that as I get older, I am rarely in the mood to listen to anymore. What was truly special for me at 16 isn't the same at 24 but good music is what it is and every once and awhile I stil love this stuff. I give it 4 stars because it really hits the spot when I wan't it to, not because it recieves regular rotation in my CD player. This is the first of what I dubbed the "golden four" of Bad Religion. 4 successive albums (Generator, Recipe For Hate, Stranger Than Fiction, and The Grey Race) that found Bad Religion at their best. I prefer the more melodic chorus oriented stuff of the second half of their career versus the harder more Punk offerings from their earlier albums. Bad Relgion isn't for everyone and I haven't heard any of their later stuff although I hear its stil quality.
Generator is the usual mix of edgy riffs, 3 minutes songs and preachy but very singable lyrics. The highlights include 2 Babies In the Dark, and Fertile Crescent although pretty much all the songs are good which is great quality about most the good Bad Religion albums.
Bottom Line: People unfamiliar with Bad Religion can start here or with Stranger Than Fiction. Fans of Sum 41 or the White Stripes might like this band.

Maybe not the best by Bad Religion, but my personal favorite
One of the things I have learned about Bad Religion is that while their fans might love a half dozen or so of their albums, no one album stands are most admirers' favorite. Read more

Very different, but one hell of a CD
If this was my first BR album, I probably wouldn't have thought much of it. But having purchased all of their CD's, this one and Recipe for Hate stand out head and shoulders above... Read more

Absolutely Amazing
Bad Religion is such an amazing band on many different levels: intellectual, musical, scientific, that it seems almost a shame to classify them as punk rock. Read more

Bad Religion's darkest hour
From the shadowy front cover artwork, to the enigmatic band photos in the liner notes, this album's packaging hints at a dark, grim album. Read more
