| NOFX - Self Entitled |
After more than a quarter century as a band, not only are NOFX not slowing things down, but they’re actually getting more aggressive. It’s like they’ve got some sort of Benjamin Button shit going on. Self Entitled is NOFX’s 12th (!!!) studio full-length, yet it feels as potent as any material they’ve ever released. Rather than drifting off into a land of forgettable and mindless rehashes of their older material like many other veteran acts, NOFX approached Self Entitled with a reinvigorated virility. The 12 tracks fully embrace the hostile early LA punk sound while maintaining just the right amount of that trademark technical and melodic sound that NOFX is renowned for. As with all NOFX albums, the subject matter on Self Entitled is diverse (politics, religion, s&m, etc.), but there is a more cohesive mood this time around. The majority of the songs display a more personal perspective from Fat Mike, which lends a more intimate feeling to the album over¬all.
There is little question about what has separated NOFX as an enduring force in independent music, and more specifically, as an institution in the punk scene for so long. Their hallmark sound and style matched with their ability to keep things fresh is unparalleled among their peers. Self Entitled is a testament to these qualities and is yet another credit to their legacy.

| This record is really good. It is not NoFX's best work. However they seem to be gaining momentum again and putting out faster, harder, more sharp songs. The album opens nicely with "72 Hookers", "I Believe in Goddess" and "Ronnie and Mags". The next few songs are a little reminiscent of "White Trash" and "Heavy Petting Zoo". However the record seems to get back to it's own identity with "Cell Out" and "My Sycophant Others". "I've Got One Jealous Again, Again" is quite heartfelt and reminds me of "My Orphan Year" or "Oop's I O.D.ed". All around this album is laced with political and social commentary and seems to have direction and will stand out in NoFX's catalog for a long time to come. Better than "Coaster" but not as good as "Wolves in Wolves' Clothing". |

| Well, it's NOFX. "She Didn't Lose Her Baby" is awesome. I also like "I, Fatty", and "This Machine Is 4". The latter is my personal favorite. Some of the other songs were kinda lame/idiotic. "72 Hookers" is retarded. Maybe because I'm kind of a feminist, but also because it just plain and simple sucks. "Cell Out" is pretty good. What else can I say? It's NOFX. 'nuff said. Geesh. |
