NOFX is so underrated it’s ridiculous.

6 years in dope


I was a misanthrope on the end of a rope
I spent twenty years, six years on dope
Taking a piss while giving up hope
I lived a lifetime six years on dope

I was a human trash can
Shortening my life span
Live fast, die tan
I think that was the plan
Saving all my money for a one way ticket to Afghanistan
Yeah

I was ezoobeson drunk
Strung out on junk
Live fast, die punk
I thought I was sunk
From gin swilling and fish tank penicillin

I was a moron bro with impetigo
A pleased as punch Dog Patch Wino
Casual sex and herpes complex
Now I'm on Interferon and Valtrex

I was a child adult, a walking insult
Every shot got more difficult

I was a teenage trash bin
A breathing mannequin
A caustic cause
Who musta loved suffering
Do pinhole eyes romanticize heroin

I was a moron bro, a circus sideshow
A dying slow Dog Patch Wino

They are literally bigger than the ramones. You COULDNT make the argument they were underAted in 1992/3 when they were catching hell in the punk scene for “selling out”.
Your statement(2 years old , I now realize) may be one of the most uninformed on the entire internet. Nofx are millionaires from their music. Since social media they have only become more OVER-rated. How did you get your fingers to even type something this dumb?

I am definitely not a preeminent scholar on the subject, but I remember these being played a lot in high school.

The Longest Line
Please Play This Song On The Radio
The Brews

The singer was in a cover band, The Me First and the Gimme Gimmes. Usually crowd pleasers if you can find them on a jukebox at a bar.

At one of their concerts in the late 90s I caught a blow up sheep sex doll that they threw out in the crowd. My mom took it and put it in the children’s play area at the dentist office she worked at.

was more of a Screeching Weasel and Hagfish fan. But remember seeing them at the Willow with L7 I believe and it was decent.

Yeah, I'm going to strongly disagree with you here.

I agree with this take, but that's why they can make such good stuff. Fat Mikes level of Give-a-frick is less than zero.

I like NOFX... sometimes their sound just hits the spot... they don't vary it up too much... but they usually have decent hooks...

I'm not sure what your criteria is, but they most definitely are not...

The Ramones are on the Mt. Rushmore of punk..
