Recipe for Hate is Bad Religion's seventh full-length album, released on September 21, 1993. This was their last album on Epitaph Records and the band switched to Atlantic Records before its release. It reached #14 on Billboard magazine's Heatseekers chart. Musically, Recipe For Hate finds Bad Religion continuing the experimentation of Generator, introducing elements of country and folk on songs like "Man With A Mission," and "Struck A Nerve," the latter of which includes a guest vocal by Johnette Napolitano of Concrete Blonde. Eddie Vedder of Pearl Jam provides guest backing vocals on "American Jesus" and sings the second verse of "Watch it Die". The album's third track, "American Jesus," was voted the best Bad Religion song of all time in a fan poll[citation needed].
