Bad Religion - How Could Hell Be Any Worse? (1981)



How Could Hell Be Any Worse? is Bad Religion's first full-length album and was released on 6/1/1981.
In early days Jim Mankey, the producer, took BR into a friend's studio, Track Record, in Hollywood. Having no money, they wrangled a deal to record at Track Record for free. They recorded for two nights, working from midnight to about 7 o'clock in the morning. Then, without any warning, Jay Ziskrout quit, "for some really stupid reason", according to Greg, like "you guys don't listen to me enough, fuck you, I quit". He walked out of the rehearsal studio and left his equipment while the record was still being recorded.
Then Pete Finestone, who was Jay's friend and roadie and knew all the songs anyway, came over (he was a fellow San Fernando Valley punk kid, but from a different high school) and basically forced himself on BR. He knocked on Greg's door and said, "Hey, I hear you need a drummer". Greg didn't even audition him, just said, "Okay, we have a drummer". After some quick practices in the Hellhole, they returned to the studio and finished recording the album over the weekend. So the album actually features two different drummers.
