Seemingly out of nowhere Bad Religion has unleashed a brand new track upon the interwebs. “The Kids Are Alt-Right” is a nod to The Who’s classic “The Kids Are Alright” but with an obvious political jab at the alt-right movement. Might not be the best BR song you’ve heard but it’s got fun lyrics! Check it out below.

Bad Religion appear to be in the studio working on their follow-up album to 2013’s True North. This will be their first album with Mike Dimkich (replacing Greg Hetson) on guitar and Jamie Miller (replacing Brooks Wackerman) on drums.

When the record will be released is unknown, but we’ll keep you updated as details arise.
