I cheated, that is the name of one of their albums.
Oooh! Ooh! Ooh! My kind of music! Funny, I looked here the other day and didn't see any albums by NOFX. For those of you out there who have never heard of them, its not surprising since this band revolutionized the meaning of being Punk rockers. And punk rock is what they do best. Sod the NME interviews and the MTV videos. If you want to find out about this band you need to be in the know. Or pop to a HMV store. I found that to be rather odd. 'Sell out' band? Well, not really but in a modern society of Capitalism, how else do you sell your wares?
NOFX … no talent to quote one of their recordings. Not at all! These American's have hit the modern day problems of being a teenager (27 year olds) on the head of the bent nail. I started to listen to these tunes as far back as I can remember listening to them. I was a student who, had no time for politics (I studied politics at Uni), no time for modern day living problems (I was trying to cope with it). So what has this got to do with the music. If you grew up listening to The Who or The Clash, then social problems are not uncommon to you. Enter generation X (me)and what you get is NOFX. A band who are constantly challenging the whole concept of our way of living. Save the whales? Capitalist rule under the Bush admin. Social problems, read Naom chomsky, watch Michel Moore and you'll get a better insight.
J.Goebbels would be having a field day if he were still alive. NOFX puts the wrongs to rights!
NOFX, a punk band from the (divided) States of America. Wonderfully well written songs that make you want to be part of the nation state. Vote and interact with our modern society problems. Not only that but they have fun whilst doing it. These guys have produced some of the best punk rock albums during the 1990's. They also promote new talent under their record label FAT wreakcord. All this at affordable prices for the generation who are susceptible to listen to them
This album, groups some of their greatest songs ever written, hence the title. True to their word this is exactly what they have done. Tracks taken from many of their previous albums and a couple of B-sides thrown in. Melodies, which will have you in fits of laughter and singing along. 1 CD, 27 songs. If you get a chance to have a listen, then make sure you have the album in your hands. I don't suggest you try and listen to it 'in-store'. Take it home and play it, play it on your car stereo. Make a difference!
For any music fan this is a must in their collection.
