Page "Into the Unknown (Bad Religion album)" Paragraph 5

Robert Christgau's review of Into the Unknown was more favorable than that of How Could Hell Be Any Worse ?, which received a B rating, whereas Into the Unknown was given a A-rating.

Christgau wrote, " I find myself moved by its anthemic ambition -- and achievement.

" John Dougan of Allmusic says that Into the Unknown is " a bit off-putting at first blush, mainly because the tempos are slower and more deliberate, and because of the use of swirling organs and pianos ", while he calls it a " terrific record that was perhaps more daring than anyone realized at the time of its release.
