1) Bad Habit is a Swedish hard rock band founded in 1986. Also see Bad Habit Sweden.

2) Like many great punk records, this one’s almost over before it starts. While this isn’t quite great, it does cover all the hardcore bases: fast, loud, aggressive. The four song demo clocks in at just 5:39, but it lets up very little over that time. Bad Habit draws a lot from Minor Threat with just a slightly looser approach a la early Black Flag. They throw in a bit more melody on "Cancer" and it sows the seeds of being more than just another young punk band playing fast and angry. Remembering that this is a demo, a preview of the future so to speak, and that they’ve only been together about six months, it’s an exciting listen. The production is acceptable, but not exceptional and the performance is passionate and honest. Lyrically, they cover the typical topics of frustration, alienation and family breakdown and while the lyrics aren’t poetry (c’mon, it’s hardcore not folk music), they’re heartfelt. To keep things from getting too serious (something so many hardcore bands forget to do), they also throw in "Israeli Girl," an ode to the girl of their dreams, Natalie Portman. I wonder if she’s heard it..." just to make things clear though...natalie portman is all me (joe)

3) band starting out in adelaide, australia consisting of 'callan xixi paul ryan'

4) Shortly lived bulgarian alternative metal band

5) An Irish folk band, based in Leeds, UK and formed in the early 1990s.

6) UK Garage, 2-step producer aka Blakk Habit

7) For the social conscious rock/punk/metal band from London, see Bad Habits.

Surrender
Bad Habit Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Come with me
Here is the answer
To set you free, yeah
All alone as you silently scream
You reach out and hold on
All along you've been chasing a dream
Now it's gone, it's over
Out of my head `cos it's

Time to surrender
It's time you remember
A game of pretending
Is not worth defending
Heart and soul
Truth is a savior
So take control, yeah

Time to surrender
You talk as if you just don?t care
There's so much frustration
I see that you are in despair
It?s your desperation, oh
Time to surrender

Everything you say and everything you do
Got to find a way you know it's down to you

Live another day and live for what is true
Make it up today there?s nothing left to prove
