Stream Bad Religion’s “The Profane Rights Of Man” off their upcoming album

SoCal melodic punk heroes Bad Religion are currently in the studio working on their follow-up to 2013’s True North album, and while few details about that record have been released, the band just dropped a new song, “The Profane Rights Of Man,” which you can stream in full below.

According to frontman Greg Graffin, the song is based on the 1789 document, ‘The Universal Rights of Man.’ “Since we’re a band that has a longstanding tradition of championing the enlightenment, we wanted to emphasize that our society is based on a profane rather than a sacred theological justification for human rights,” said Graffin in a statement. “In sum, the song is about Bad Religion’s belief in a secular basis for the protection of human rights for all people.”

Bad Religion have been celebrating the 30th anniversary of their classic Suffer LP this year by performing the album in full at select shows, including their set at Riot Fest and the Scallywag Festival. For all upcoming tour dates, visit the band’s official site.
