Believe it or not but Bad Religion has been around for 30 years. The Southern California punk band, who formed in 1980, is celebrating their 30th anniversary this Spring with a tour and a present to all their fans - a free live album. And the live album will contain a few new songs.

Greg and Brett and the rest of the band announced on their website, "To celebrate three decades of Bad Religion, we'll be recording a live album during our spring 2010 tour, and offering it as a free 'thank you' to the loyal fans who've been with us through all the sweet and mayhem."

"We'll be playing a few tracks at the shows from our new album, coming this fall, so this will be a great way to get a preview of the new tunes."
