Sobre el álbum

El aclamado The Process of Belief representa la redención y el regreso triunfal de Bad Religion a su mejor estado de forma. Este disco de 2002 marca dos hitos fundamentales: su vuelta al sello independiente Epitaph y, sobre todo, el regreso del guitarrista y compositor Brett Gurewitz a la formación. Por consiguiente, la química original de la banda se recupera por completo, dando como resultado su mejor álbum en casi una década.

Además, el disco es una colección impecable de punk rock melódico, que combina la velocidad de sus inicios con la madurez y la sabiduría de los años. De este modo, canciones como "Sorrow", "Kyoto Now!" o "Epiphany" se convirtieron en nuevos clásicos instantáneos. Por esta razón, "The Process of Belief" fue celebrado unánimemente por fans y crítica como una espectacular vuelta a los orígenes, la resurrección de una leyenda que volvía para reclamar su trono.

  2. Prove It1:14

    Letra

    Hit the road in wander mode Inquire along the way Savoir faire in full despair While living day to day My heart is not a cold cauldron of proof I don't ever need to prove myself to you No! Looking back I'm off the tracks More times than I recognize Mistakes are another opportunity to refine My heart is not a cold cauldron of proof I don't ever need to prove myself to you There's no such thing as hell But you can make it if you try There might come a day When emotion can be quantified But as of now there's no proof necessary No proof necessary No proof necessary No proof necessary It's only in your mind

    Letra

    Who do you believe can put some meaning in your life Meaning in your life Meaning in your life Who do you conceive to provide you guidance and light Guidance and light Guidance and light Are they waiting for you in the by and by Do you even have to try Headed for eternity and destined for nothing The future isn't difficult to see It's easy to confuse grand design with life's repercussions Lament not your vanquished fantasy It's only destiny Why do you consent to live in ignorance and fear Ignorance and fear Ignorance and fear Ancient people succumbed to it can it happen here Can it happen here Can it happen here Does it make you suffer cuz you have to die Is it best to live a lie Headed for eternity and destined for nothing The future isn't difficult to see It's easy to confuse grand design with life's repercussions Lament not your vanquished fantasy It's only destiny Why can't you see There ain't no destiny For you and me There ain't no destiny Why can't you see There ain't no destiny For you and me There ain't no destiny Headed for eternity and destined for nothing The future isn't difficult to see It's easy to confuse grand design with life's repercussions Lament not your vanquished fantasy It's only destiny
  6. Materialist1:53

    Letra

    You're obsesssed and distressed Cause you can't make any sense of the ludicrous nonsense And incipient senescence That will deem your common sense useless This aint no recess! I want to believe in you, but my plan keeps falling through I know I have to face the harshnes, grin and bear the truth And I have to walk this mile in my own shoes (and I'm no fool!) [Chorus:] I'm materialist A full-blown realist (physical theorist) And I guess I'm full of doubt So I'm prone to hear you out and refuse I'm materialist There ain't no fear in this It's for all to see, so don't talk of hidden mysteries with me... Mind over matter, it really don't matter If the street's idle chatter turns your heart strings to tatters Flatter hopes don't flatter and soul batter won't congeal to mend A life that is shattered into shards Was it in the cards? The process of belief is an elixir when you're weak I must confess, at times I indulge it on the sneak But generally my outlook's not so bleak (and I'm not meek!) [Chorus:] I'm materialist Call me a humanist (physical theorist) And I guess I'm full of doubt, But I'll gladly have it out with you I'm materialist I ain't no deist It's there for all to see, so don't of hidden mysteries with me Like Rome under Nero, our future's one big zero Recycling the past to meet the immediate needs And through it all we ramble forth with perservere and climb Our mountains of regret to sow our seeds I'm materialist I'm materiliast I'm materialist I'm materialist (hold)
  7. Kyoto Now!3:19

    Letra

    It's a matter of prescience No, not the science fiction kind It's all about ignorance, And greed, and miracles for the blind The media parading, disjointed politics Founded on petrochemical plunder And we're it's hostages If you stand to reason You're in the game The rules might be elusive But our pieces are the same And you know if one goes down we all go down as well The balance is precarious as anyone can tell This world's going to hell Don't allow This mythologic hopeful monster to exact it's price Kyoto now! We can't do nothing and I think someone else will make it right You might not think it matters now But what if you are wrong You might not think there's any wisdom in a fucked up punk rock song But the way it is Cannot persist for long A brutal sun is rising on a sick horizon It's in the way We live our lives Exactly like the double-edge of a cold familiar knife And supremacy weighs heavy on the day It's never really what you own but what you threw away And how much did you pay? In your dreams You saw a steady state a bounty for eternity Silent screams But now the wisdom that sustains us is in full retreat Don't allow This mythologic hopeful monster isn't worth the risk Kyoto now! We can't have vision for the future if it can't be fixed Alien We need a fresh and new religion to run our lives Hand in hand The arid torpor of inaction will be our demise Oh, Kyoto now!
  8. Sorrow3:21

    Letra

    Father can you hear me? How have I let you down? I curse the day that I was born And all the sorrow in this world Let me take you to the herding ground Where all good men are trampled down Just to settle a bet that could not be won Between a prideful father and his son Will you guide me now for I can't see a reason For the suffering and this long misery What if every living soul could be upright and strong? Well then I do imagine There will be (sorrow) Yeah there will be (sorrow) And there will be sorrow no more When all soldiers lay their weapons down Or when all kings and all queens relinquish their crowns Or when the only true messiah rescues us From ourselves it's easy to imagine There will be (sorrow) Yeah there will be (sorrow) And there will be sorrow no more There will be (sorrow) Yeah there will be (sorrow) And there will be sorrow no more Yeah there will be (sorrow) Yeah there will be (sorrow) And there will be sorrow no more
  9. Epiphany3:59

    Letra

    A new age of reason Brain treason to trick the mind What good is searching If nothing's there to find We arrive at this place Of no return my brothers Only to discover that our minds have led us away So far from the painful truth Of who we are What's right is wrong What's come has gone What's clear and pure is not so sure It came to me All promises become a lie All that's benign corrupts in time The fallacy Of Epiphany Come forth bear witness See the profit from your loss Beg for forgiveness Only after you tally the cost We arrive at this place Of no return my sisters Only to discover that our values ran us aground On the shoal in the sea of what We could be What's right is wrong What's come has gone What's clear and pure is not so sure It came to me All promises become a lie All that's benign corrupts in time The fallacy Of Epiphany If it's real for me do I have to prove it to you Why do revelations fade to cold blue untruths It's oh so relative Subservient in total to one's perspective What's right is wrong What's come has gone What's clear and pure is not so sure It came to me All promises become a lie All that's benign corrupts in time The fallacy Of Epiphany

    Letra

    She came from Heaven well there's no point belaboring that I've seen some trouble and I must admit that I'm in demand I confront rejection with magnetic good intentions yet Hey Jack Get back in fact Don't do that I act sharp But feel uncertain Cuz next time It could be curtains Evangeline Conspirator so fine Lend me your faith cuz mine is broken Compared to mine What is your crime Evangeline Now just to be certain let's be sure to set the record straight I could use an angel but I don't intend to split up the take Never go for treason but I got reasons that don't warrant debate My acts intact and in fact you're not all that You act sure But you're uncertain Cuz next time It could be curtains Evangeline Conspirator so fine Lend me your faith cuz mine is broken Compared to mine What is your crime Evangeline Well there's no use turning back No use turning back It's already much too late When the house is burning Evangeline Conspirator so fine Lend me your faith cuz mine is broken Compared to mine What is your crime Evangeline
  11. The Defense3:53

    Letra

    Nothing comes easier than madness in the world today Mass paranoia is a mode not a melody Yeah I'd like to watch all thousand cable channels but there's nothing on And my high speed connection's monitored daily by the pentagon These things are seldom what they seem I'm not inclined to enjoy my dreams Won't go away No Peace and No Friends We Trace the mortal edge with no defense To State the obvious This world is perilous for us No sense and No Guide Ain't it beautiful to be alive Yeah right I won't resign before the struggle ends So I'll construct this sound defense We are the prey and culture is the predator I'm running out of time where conditions are positionnal Shadows of a doubt cast reluctance and depravity There's got to be a way to overcome this grim reality Is there an option left for me I'm not immune to despondency There's no way No Peace and No Friends We Trace the mortal edge with no defense To State the obvious This world is perilous for us No sense and No Guide Ain't it beautiful to be alive Yeah right I won't resign before the struggle ends So I'll construct this sound defense There's a signpost on the corner And it keeps everybody safe We were all made in the shade And your mother's in the kitchen Where she's patching all the cracks in the wall We never had to care in the world Too much to sacrifice It's hard to recognize Just a compromise of purely deadly alibies It's combinational The pressure so intense So I'll construct this sound defense Nothing's plainer than the madness in the world today I must conceal myself and steal myself and break away I seek initiatives in matters that are black and white So I'll construct this sound defense
  12. The Lie2:18

    Letra

    How do you know what you can be If you can't see where you are going What breaks the silence Misery Can make you see where you belong It's a dangerous stage but the show must go on Why do you lie Why do you lie Would you betray your soul Why do you lie Why do you lie Don't let your weakness show You just might be the last to know Freedom is such a loaded word So full of hurt and such a plomb Loneliness saunters in it's breeze Like a disease it drags along The time of your life can't be had for a song Why do you lie Why do you lie Would you betray your soul Why do you lie Why do you lie Don't let your weakness show You just might be the last to know Why do you lie Why do you lie Would you betray your soul Why do you lie Why do you lie Don't let your weakness show Why do you lie Why do you lie Only the meek follow Why do you lie Why do you lie Trample the fear below You just might be the last to know
  13. You Don't Belong2:49
  14. Bored And Extremely Dangerous3:25

    Letra

    With nothing better to do No one to come home to I woefully conclude To take it out on you I'm bored to the extreme This world of foolish dreams Disillusion I am not who I seem to be Yeah sure I might do harm And bear my right to arm Retribution If only someone would listen to me Listen to me Listen to me Listen to me Listen to me A room an empty shelf A book on mental health I look for inner wealth A punish in myself I'm bored to the extreme This world of foolish dreams Disillusion I am not who I seem to be Yeah sure I might do harm And bare my right to arm Retribution If only someone would listen to me Listen to me Listen to me Listen to me Listen to me
  15. Shattered Faith

    Letra

    The scientist purported that there aint no purpose And the theologian told me that it's all been designed And Im trying to maintain objectivity The world wont illuminate what really matters And Im an imperfect moral meaning extractor Processing the complexity Born of the earth (are we blind? ) We werent given a choice (there's no way) What about free will? (what we have) Do we have a voice? (is shattered faith) See them run in place (here and now) In the human rat race (no reward) So much dead weight (no debate) to our disgrace (accept your fate) Life begins when you accept your fate Paralysis from forces raging out of control until My confidence and will are at an all-time low Just directionless wandering Eternal life, eternal truth, eternal secrets Isolated hopes and hypotheses just Leave me feeling so hungry Born of the earth (are we blind? ) We werent given a choice (there's no way) What about free will? (what we have) Do we have a voice? (is shattered faith) See them run in place (here and now) In the human rat race (no reward) So much dead weight (no debate) to our disgrace (accept your fate) Life begins when you accept your fate Right or wrong, The main criterion is what you do and not what you say The roads you take, the friends you make and those you throw away The method is a simple synthesis of the past and present state You never lose if the path you choose is one you can easily navigate I had a dream, light and carefree But now there's doubt and gravity But I wont run in place (are we blind? ) in the human rat race (there's no way) I can set the pace (what we have) and accept my fate (is shattered faith) Shattered faith (here and now) Shattered faith (no reward) The part of me (no debate) I can't erase (accept your fate)
