First of all I am a christian, and I love Jesus.
Second of all I can take a joke.
Third, this is one great EP.
You're Wrong has to be the most straightforward politcal song I've ever heard. I mean this band is only bashing christianity because of how most christians (specifically in high places) are corrupt and are waging a war, besides their problem isnt just with christianity, its with all religions, you idiots. If you think that Bush was appointed by God to send you off to die in war, then i think you're just as dumb as all of the other sheep getting their heads blown off in iraq.Do you think any religion says you should kill for it? If anything you should be mad at these nuts, not a band. NOFX are pissed, and who do they attack you ask? not only these pigs in office but also everything they hold sacred. Who cares if Jesus is drinking a beer on the cover and he's declared a hippy that we shouldn't trust. Are we that insecure in our own faith that we cant take a few jokes. I mean this band raises a lot of good points, which are being ignored, from half of the music that we need these days. These are politcal times and this band is one of the few who are saying something about it. I mean remember Vietnam? Remember all of that great music? Remember Remdemption song? Remember Bob Dylan. oh man. Besides if you are one to be easily offended, why did you buy this if you thought the songs werent going to be a little harsh? I MEAN LOOK AT THE COVER!that should've been your first indication right there. Overall every song not only is awesome lyrically, but it has the music to back it up. NOFX question, push buttons, and challenge everything we hold dear, and someone has to do it, because its only through asking questions do we have a better understanding.
leave no topic unturned. question authority. question your beliefs. that is what a TRUE democracy should be.
First of all about Brendan Schultz's review it is an ep it is supposed to be short. This is a great cd the best songs would be Seeing Double At The Triple Rock, Im Going To Hell For This One, and Golden Boys. Some advice would be not to order this on amazon but get it for $6 and only $2 shipping and handling at Fatwreck.com or Nofx.org and save yourself a lot of money.
I think it's funny when people act as if NOFX, with albums like this one, is doing something, new, important, or intelligent. I'm sorry kids, mindlessly taking an anti mainstream approach does not make you specialz. The saddest part is that these guys have got a great sound. My advice: let the pretentious political lectures slide and enjoy some catchy fun times punk rock. Too bad Fat Mike's got the politics of a high school punk who thinks he's enlightened after reading the works of Michael Moore. Republican or Democrat, I don't care. Just try to have an argument better than 'anything popular is bad because George Bush is stupid!' Why is it that all self-confessed non-conformists conform to liberal stereotypes? Way to think for yourself.
Please don't mistake me for a troll. These guys have talent, and this is a fun sounding punk record. It is super catchy and I do recommend it. Just be prepared for many juvenile political rants disguised as lyrics. Such a waste.
This is a great CD, only problem is it's too short. Everything they do is great and it's a decent distraction from all the terrible things going on in the country right now.
well nofx does not really care what people think of them.they are probably one of the most humorous bads out there.so keep talking your crap it will give them a song idea.they own their own label so they do what they want not what anyone else wants.
