About

Pop-punk’s OGs want to give you a piece of their mind. Producer Cameron Webb (Motorhead, Bleed the Dream) outfits the band’s sardonic songs with newfound muscle, as Fat Mike tears into everything from absentee dads to the pharmaceutical industry. Unlike their finger-pointing peers, NOFX are equally willing to turn their jokes inward, as they do on “It Ain’t Lonely at the Bottom” and “Ditch Effort,” their rawest shot of roaring hardcore.
