No Substance
Template:Use mdy dates Script error: No such module "Unsubst-infobox".Script error: No such module "Check for conflicting parameters". No Substance is the tenth full-length album by the punk rock band Bad Religion. It was the band's third (or fourth, if the reissue of Recipe for Hate is counted) release on Atlantic Records, and their second studio album since guitarist Brett Gurewitz's departure.
No Substance was anticipated by both music critics and fans as a result of the band's previous worldwide successes with their 1994 major label debut Stranger Than Fiction and its 1996 follow up The Gray Race. The album has been met with mixed reviews and was not as successful as band's past releases. The album was re-released by Epitaph Records on September 15, 2008. No songs of the album would turn into live staples; "Raise Your Voice" is occasionally played live in Germany due to Die Toten Hosen singer Campino's guest vocals.
Reception
Template:Music ratings Author Dave Thompson, in his book Alternative Rock (2000), wrote that the shared songwriting credits make this the band's "most eclectic album ever, eagerly exploring new sounds and styles... ah, Into the Unknown II! Only better."[1]

Notes
Script error: No such module "Unsubst".
- "The State of The End of The Millennium Address" is written like a speech, very similar to the beginning of "Voice of God is Government" from How Could Hell Be Any Worse?.
- If you dial the 800 number, it will link through to ConAgra Foods customer service (No longer in service - April 16, 2017).
- On the European release, Campino sings alternating lines on "Raise Your Voice". On the US version, he only provides backing vocals. All album releases on music streaming platforms feature the European version.
- The cover art model has been widely reported[4][5][6] as being actress Kristen Johnston, but she refuted this claim in 2019 via a Twitter post.[7]
