From Wikipedia:

Into the Unknown is the second album by Bad Religion, which was released in 1983. The album was a major change from their previous style, delving into progressive rock heavy in keyboards, though it wasn't at all popular as fans at the time were confused by the sudden style shift. When the band released the 1991 compilation album 80-85, a collection of recordings before their third album Suffer, Into the Unknown was not part of the compilation, also partly due to the band changing their style.

The album is widely reputed to have been a major factor in their 1984 breakup as the recording sessions were riddled with discord. As a matter of fact, drummer Pete Finestone and bass player Jay Bentley left during the recording of the first song.

Only 10,000 of these albums were produced and distributed, but almost all were quickly returned to Epitaph's warehouse. Guitarist Brett Gurewitz jokingly recalls having "[sent out] ten thousand copies and [getting] eleven thousand back."[1] However, many did in fact end up in the hands of fans, when Brett Gurewitz's girlfriend Suzy Shaw, who worked at the warehouse, surreptitiously sold all but 300 of them. Compact cassettes were also produced, but they are rare.

The album is generally disowned by the band, and there has never been a second pressing. Despite its abandonment however, it has become highly desirable and is now something of a collector's item. The band has commented on the album on their site saying that they are not trying to hide it from fans, and that anyone who listens to it will understand why they have never re-released it.

This song makes me pine for my 20's. It was a great house party and camp fire jam tune. And, sometimes, we even had a banjo player, which put an interesting spin on it. Good times! :)

then go back to listening to Fall Out Boy and Blink 182. I'm not saying it's the best album ever, but it's much better than originally reviewed.

Go back to '83 and erase this shit's existence. Then the real bad religion that started in 1980 and disintegrated by this record might reappear and stop horrible albums like 'suffer' and everything that came afterwards from happening! wawawaw I'm a 21st century sellout mall poser hot topic punk! wawawawa

@jimbo2346 Because Rush, Tears for Fears, Styx, REO Speedwagon, King Crimson, Pink Floyd, and Jethro Tull are often criticized for having empty lyrics. It's the fact that the lyrics are so thought provoking that seals the album as, fucking weird as this sounds, a really solid prog album.

I love this album. I am a punk rocker. I am 27. My best friend died of a heroin overdose in Feb. My circle of friends are all gone, from OD or accidental gunfire-all gone-into the unknown :/

Only really small minded punkrock kids with no clue at all about other music can think this is good music. I am giving it a try, but like every 5 seconds I want to stick a knife into my ears. I've heard thousands of great records and this one is crap. Put another name on it and it stays crap, I don't care if this is Bad Religion or not, it's CRAP. It's not a version of Beach Boys, Kinks or progrock. IT'S, guess what: CRAP.

This is my first time hearing the songs off this album....it's different......but I like it. I think it will probably get even better with more listens.

Finally! I found a stream of this album! This song is sick and I wish they'd play it live or re-record it or something. I'd buy the album if it wasn't gonna be $200+ in that box set, but I think I may definitely get the shirt. Greg and Co., please re-release and/or re-record this!

This is like Bad Religion's 80's rendition of the Beach Boys.. can you hear it? The BB were great.

Even in a "progressive rock" like sound, Bad Religion still kept the thought provoking lyrics. Also, the music it self isn't that bad. If they are never gonna release this stuff, they should at least play some of it live again, for the hell of it.
