Apparently we listened to two completely different albums. The only song on that album that sounds like the typical "punk rock" is the title track (which did bore the hell out of me). The rest of the album isn't typical punk at all. It's a rock opera and a huge departure from their old sound and style. Fucking fantastic.
As for Auf Der Maur, I loved the huge sweeping sounds of the music, and the vocals on songs such as "Real a Lie" and "I Need I Want I Will" are stellar. There were some songs on there that I didn't like, but overall I've found that album on my replay list quite often and I'm definitely looking forward to future releases from the band.
Bad Religion's latest album was also a big one for me and their live show had just as much high energy as ever. Those guys never seem to let me down.
