Advantages: Kick ass funny funny!! Disadvantages: shame about the one little letdown
...of going off all this punk stuff recently. Until just a few days ago that is, when I unearthed a load of old cassettes I had hidden away in an old shoebox. I was given copies of all but the most recent of NOFX’s releases, and ‘Punk In Drublic’ was one of them. The greatest punk album ever!! Those are the only things a punk rocker needs to know about NOFX's seventh release (from 1994). This album has so many classic numbers on it ... ...attraction (unlike a lot of punk albums).
I appreciate that a lot of CIAOers aren’t going to enjoy this one bit (so I apologise for dragging you here). I’ll try and keep it short so you can all get back to doing whatever you were doing. LINOLEUM:
First track on the album. Fast paced, classic song. Fat Mike's lyrics in this song are superb (he’s got a pretty unique voice to go with them too). Anyone denying this as "bad ass" will ...

Advantages: Some of the greatest NOFX songs are included. Lyrics to make you smile Disadvantages: None
...its full of great, fast punk songs (with a few minor exceptions), and it's another album where track skipping isn't needed, just perfect? Well, not completely but its about as close as you're going to get.
There are some fantastic tracks featuring on this album, including 'Linoleum', 'Don't call me white' and 'Dying degree'. it also includes the single 'Leave it alone' which I still think is one of the best songs they've done. My personal favourite ... ...4) The cause

Advantages: Good use of guitar, funny, catchy, punk Disadvantages: Inlay card could be better
...Clever.. what else does a punk album need? politics, maybe, but besides that, it sticks to the punk idea. This album is arguably NoFX's best (pump up the valuum is another contender), after listening to this album, you'll see why. It is extremely funny, especially the first time you hear it. With the catchy tunes, you are immediately attracted to it, but as you listen to it more, your love for it starts to grow. Of course, if you're not a lover of ... ...if you've heard punk before, and you want to give it a try, this is an album to start off with. This is punk at its best!
If you're looking for sophisticated lyrical content, you wouldn't like this album at all.
NoFX, as you will hear, are not too original musically, but lyrically they are, as you will hear. ...

...definitely one for the avid punk rocker's shelf. I bought this only recently, even though I have been a NOFX fan for as long as I can remember. I had heard all their other releases but their was something special about this one that I just can't put my finger on. It's lyrics are very good, funny and cool. Great album for a party! NOFX stand next to the best in Punk, and in my opinion are better than Green Day. If you haven't already gotten into them ...

Punk in Drublic must rate as one of NOFX's best albums as it contains some superbly written and performed tracks. NOFX have unleashed a monster of an album, thus rating them as possibly one of the best punk bands ever. The sound is genuine and comical in areas and makes for a brilliant listen. The simple aural pleasure of listening to this album is almost beyond comparison. If you don't own this album then you definitely should as it is simply great. ...

...might want to try punk in drublic by nofx, he thought it may be the kind of thing I would enjoy (i had postbox red spiky hair). Well, that day changed my commitment to music forever, never before had I heard an album that reached out and grabbed so hard. Every track on the album still sounds as fresh and exciting now as it did 11 years ago and it has rarely been out of my cd player since. You are probably now thinking, Oh come on Chris, it can't ... ...no worries or stress. Punk in drublic is that album for me, from the blistering opener of linolium all the way through to the solo acoustic performance of scavanger type, I am picked up and transported back to '94. This album is pretty heavy listening for those used to a more mainstream type of punky pop (busted spring to mind), however I defy anyone who listens to guitar based music not to love this album.
17 Tracks may seem a little excessive ...

...i had missed out on, punk in drublic. i was really slow in finding out why it was called that. anyway it is a really awesome album that no-one who is sane would not like. leave it alone has a great rhythm to it. linoleum, don't call me white and punk guy are among some of the great 17 (that's right) 17, tracks that make this album worth buying. almost all of them might be considered classics but all of them would definitely be considered great tracks. ... ...time and reeko which has a distinctive ska influence and is one of my favourite songs on the album is in there to. Perfect government is another awesome song. Please take this time to imagine a perfect government (seriously). this was my first nofx cd i got and its still my favourite. the coolest lyrics on the cd are and I quote "jeff don't wear regular shoes" ...
