Bad Religion are back, and this time, it's personal. Earlier this year, the California punk vets released their 16th studio album, 'True North,' a record about perfecting one's moral compass and surviving in modern society. Now, they're hitting the road to spread the loud and melodic gospel, and in honor of their 2013 North American tour, we're teaming up with our friends at Loudwire to give away a killer Bad Religion prize pack! Thanks to the good folks at Epitaph Records, one lucky fan gets a 'True North' CD, a Bad Religion t-shirt and a hoodie bearing the classic ‘Crossbuster’ logo.

“We went back to our original mission statement of short concise bursts of melody and thought,” co-songwriter and guitarist Brett Gurewitz said of ‘True North’ back in November. “The intent was to record stripped down punk songs without sacrificing any conceptual density.”

Gurewitz wasn't kidding. 'True North' is classic BR -- smart, fast and catchy -- and the new songs will fit nicely alongside classics on the upcoming tour. Bad Religion's trek spans March 8 through April 20 (see the full itinerary below), and we'll keep the contest going throughout the run of dates. Tickets for the shows are available here, and fans can pick up additional merch at the group's official online store.

For a chance to win our ‘True North’ prize pack, simply follow @diffuserfm and @loudwire on Twitter and retweet the contest announcement (click the red button below) by April 20. A winner will be chosen at random. For official contest rules, click here. Good luck!
