No Control is an album by Bad Religion released by Epitaph Records on November 2, 1989 (see 1989 in music). It is part of what Bad Religion fans sometimes refer to as the "holy trinity" of Bad Religion albums, along with Suffer and Against the Grain. Stylistically, No Control is a faster album than its predecessor, owing more to hardcore punk. It contains "Change Of Ideas," "No Control," "I Want To Conquer The World," "Big Bang," and "You," all of which are considered Bad Religion classics and are live show staples to this day.
