NOFX - Wolves in Wolves Clothing

I decided today that if I have to sit on the train for 45 mins to get to work, given that I am already listening to music, that i'd write some blog entries seeing as I am so far behind!



A couple weeks ago, Resist Records had a sale on in their physical and their webstore. I snoozed a bit on it, until I saw my mate Rory post about his purchases on his Facebook page. So I hit that shit up, and picked up 4 LP's for $60 post paid (which in Australia is a fucking bargain! Most LP's cost you between $24.99 and $39.99), and it included this record.

Now, I have loved NOFX for years, but this is right up there with my favourite records of theirs. I'd say it's almost up there with white trash, ribbed and punk in drublic. Big call I know, but it is (for the most part) intelligent and inciteful.



The opening lines of US A-holes is one of my fave lyrics of recent years.



It's hard to play NOFX at home when my chick is there though. She got into a huge fight with Mike about 8 years ago when they toured here, and she was hanging out with some friends and he was being a cunt about her being SXE and trying to talk her around to some lines of coke...

Well, that's what headphones are for genius!
