Bad Religion recently spoke with AOL's Spinner.com about their upcoming album. The record is titled New Maps of Hell and is due out July 10, 2007.

Besides explaining the album's delay by joking: "We're getting older." The band talks a bit about the sound of the record, with Brett Gurewitz adding:

There have been certain records where I attempted to make a technically precise recording. This time, I really wanted to capture a sense of broad urgency and excitement. It sounds more reckless -- really raw and aggressive. I'm really proud of the sound."

Greg Graffin also elaborated on his age-related quip, explaining the more serious concerns faced by a band with as long history as Bad Religion:

The truth is that when you get older, [you find that] you've piled up a huge amount of history. To trudge forward and do something that you hope will be historic and significant takes a lot more inertia. The last thing we can do at this stage is start to sound like a caricature of ourselves.
