Nearing their 40th year of existence – yes, F-O-U-R-T-Y – punk rock idols Bad Religion are still hard at work releasing politically-charged music for the kids of tomorrow to mosh to. Following up where they left off with their bouncy parody of a track “The Kids Are Alt-Right,” the So-Cal icons have returned with a fiery new song titled “The Profane Rights Of Man.”

Speaking on the track, frontman Greg Graffin says: “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.”

“In sum,” Graffin adds, “the song is about Bad Religion’s belief in a secular basis for the protection of human rights for all people.”
