Satellite: NOFX? More like no talent!

Satellite 04.14.17	yes, i'm a total fucking poser, i know. what was that one band/artist for you, sputnikers?
Atari 04.14.17	yeah a lot of their best songs are here nice list. my first nofx was shoes - sometimes they just really hit the spot
Satellite 04.14.17	shoes is definitely my favorite. i was really taken aback by how good their new one is, too. had been a while since i wasn't at least slightly disappointed by a new nofx album.
Sinternet 04.14.17	my first nofx was wolves in sheeps clothing which was pretty ehh so i never biothered jamming them until like two years ago but yeah rules hard
Satellite 04.14.17	wolves has some great songs but yeah it's not a very cohesive album
Crawl 04.14.17	NOFX was that band for me, too. Heavy Petting Zoo is extremely nostalgic for me, I love the serious songs on that one.
RunOfTheMill 04.14.17	Nice list, if I wanted to get in to NOFX where should I start? I've got a buddy who's in love with these guys and I never have a clue of what he's talking about haha Also that band was Judas Priest for me
Crawl 04.14.17	@Run: I don't tend to like greatest hits collections, but that is how I got into NOFX, so maybe try that. If you want an album, I recommend White Trash.
Atari 04.14.17	nice to see I'm so sorry tony on here too. no use for a name is pretty nostalgic for me as well and the lyrics in that song get me every time
Satellite 04.14.17	i'd say start with punk in drublic. or the decline, if the idea of a nearly 20 minute punk rock opera sounds appealing to you. the latter is definitely their most ambitious release.
Satellite 04.14.17	yeah it's a very touching and honest tribute. listening to nufan makes me super sad nowadays.
Atari 04.14.17	also that one band/artist for me was the ataris no joke lolz. and I'm talking pre-so long Astoria ataris (end is forever, anywhere but here, blue skies)
Satellite 04.14.17	yeah good call crawl. i don't normally care for greatest hits albums either but theirs does their discog justice and would definitely work as an intro to the band.
Atari 04.14.17	yeah their greatest hits album is an exception agreed
RunOfTheMill 04.14.17	This got featured fast, 'grats
theacademy 04.14.17	what cd was the fleetwood mac cover on
Crawl 04.14.17	Drop the World could possibly be my number one.
Satellite 04.14.17	@cad s&m airlines my god is fat mike grating to listen to on that track
Crawl 04.14.17	It's a cool album, especially when you consider how bad the one before was.
Satellite 04.14.17	in their book they talk about how terrible they were in those days and it's hilarious. they didn't truly figure things out until el hefe joined after ribbed and taught them how to keep their guitars tuned and mike to sing slightly in key. mike said that hearing bad religion's suffer made him decide to actually try to not suck.
L4titudes 04.14.17	I wish I could like this band. I used to fake liking them back in my skater punk days.
L4titudes 04.14.17	I do know most of these songs though and I guess on occasion I can tolerate them. 20 would probably be my 1. And Bob is cool but so short.
charbyno 04.14.17	For me that band was Iron Maiden. Before I heard them I was just a casual music fan, after I heard them I was hooked on all things metal and rock
Satellite 04.14.17	@yourgod understandable. they're certainly not for everyone. @charb. word. i'm not a huge metal fan but i've always dug maiden and i'm sure they were "that band" for lots of sputnikers. also nofx wrote a song about them... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0MOEkqoYvXU
zakalwe 04.14.17	Band is the definition of why yanks are are mostly shit at doing 'punk'
Realm 04.14.17	Why you still post here
Realm 04.14.17	Where's karma police
Realm 04.14.17	Fuckin list sucks
Realm 04.14.17	.
Realm 04.14.17	Haven't you made this list a few times by now
Satellite 04.15.17	the answer to all of those questions is fuck off ire
zaruyache 04.15.17	band has good albums and meh albums but The Decline will always be perf.
Satellite 04.15.17	my senior year in hs i roadtripped to cleveland (lol) to see them live for the first time and they opened w/ the decline. shit ruled.
demigod! 04.15.17	sweet list man, yeah i always dug these guys a fair bit. punk in drublic is still great to me, along with a ton of other random tunes i stole via limewire back in the day. still need to jam the decline sometime, been meaning to for a while gotta check out that bio too, I friggin love nutty/druggy musician biogs.
Satellite 04.15.17	theirs is definitely the druggiest i've ever read
xfearbefore 04.15.17	Really important band to the development of my musical taste as a youngin', but I just cannot stand Fat Mike anymore. He just comes off as such a tired, obnoxious cliche.
Atari 04.15.17	Another underrated nofx tune: the bath of least resistance
Relinquished 04.15.17	decline is cool
Crawl 04.15.17	@xfear: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RojIIPuN-NA
xfearbefore 04.15.17	bath of least resistance is awesome, played that one to death on whatever punk-o-rama comp it was on. I think Vol. 6? 7? It was the one with the monkeys recreating the beginning of 2001 on the cover I believe.
Satellite 04.15.17	punk-o-ramas were the shit. discovered tons of bands through those comps.
Realm 04.15.17	fuck you scatellite
Satellite 04.15.17	💕
bungy 04.15.17	ah cool the first time I heard separation of church and skate in like middle school I thought it was the coolest thing ever. then I listened to franco un-American and thought the same thing. then I got their greatest hits which led to the other billion punk bands I listen to, they were huge for me too. will check out the autobiography sounds sweet sweet you didn't ignore First Ditch Effort I thought i'd see medio-core on there somewhere
Trebor. 04.15.17	minor threat
Jots 04.15.17	yeah band was a big gateway act for me too
Deathconscious 04.15.17	In Flames, i think. i already loved music before them, but that was the first time i really developed a passion for it. i remember i was checking out some artists and Zombie Inc. came on and instantly i was like "holy shit, this is exactly what ive wanted to hear. this is exactly what ive been looking for." i was listening to shitty metalcore before that because i liked that Gothenburg melodeath riffing but never had much of a taste for the breakdowns. they were my favorite band for years and years after i discovered them.
Dedes 04.16.17	August Burns Red. They didn't kickstart my music interest even though I loved the energy and proficiency they had. Their passion and honesty resonated with me. I still think what they write is simple but beautiful.
Dedes 04.16.17	The idiots are taking over is a fun song and true as fuck as well
KILL 04.16.17	agreed
unclereich 04.16.17	Sup
Deathconscious 04.16.17	soup
unclereich 04.16.17	Drunk as fuck
Realm 04.16.17	Me too Easter pbrs
demigod! 04.16.17	sm0k
Realm 04.16.17	I'm out of grass :(
WetHarmonica1916 04.17.17	Interesting list brah, NOFX are one of my favorite bands too. If you haven't read their book I highly recommend it, its fantastic :)
Atari 04.17.17	'bout to binge their discog
xfearbefore 04.17.17	punk-o-rama's were, in fact, the shit Satellite. It's too bad people don't really buy albums physically anymore, because those were such a perfect way to introduce people to all this great punk music. 4 bucks and boom, you just discovered Bad Religion, TSOL, Descendents, The Cramps, Refused, etc. Those Punk-o-Rama's and Vans Warped Tour comps were amazing back then. It was Vol. 6 "Bath of Least Resistance" was on. I remember now because it was the last Punk-o-Rama that was purely just punk music, as they started throwing in hip hop and indie and whatever the fuck else on every one after that and everyone stopped buying them lol.
Atari 04.17.17	hell yeah, the one with the monkeys on it, "Black Eye" by Millencolin was another one of my favorite tracks. just realized they have all the punk-o-rama comps on apple music too!
wwf 04.17.17	STOP SINGING SONGS ABOUT GIRLS AND LOVE
Hawks 04.18.17	One of my friends from high school loved this band, but I never really tried to get into them tbh. Maybe I should jam.
Dedes 04.18.17	Millencolin is pretty sweet. I went through a large pop-punk phase, jammed Life on a Plate quite a bit lol.
tom79 04.18.17	first heard separation of church and skate on tony hawks underground in '03, been listening ever since. still jam some cds in my car. sweet list.
Masochist 04.19.17	Funny enough, that band for me was Bad Religion. I checked out every Epitaph album I could get because of them (including NOFX). "The Decline" is one of the greatest punk songs ever written, bar none. Millencolin is incredible, and they also had an undeniable effect on my music (because, like Bad Religion, they were also on Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 2). When I asked my sister to make me a mix cd with a list of songs, she put "No Cigar" first (for no reason). As such, that song was the revving engine that started my journey into music beyond radio. Anyways, excellent list. They put on a hell of a live show, too.
xfearbefore 04.20.17	I used to absolutely love Millencolin back when I was like 11 years old because of those Punk-o-Rama comps. "Black Eye" and "No Cigar" (thanks Tony Hawk Pro Skater 2!) were listened to thousands of times. Their early stuff is super fun goofy Swedish pop punk, "Bullion" is a killer song particularly. I still love those guys though you can't help but laugh at their older stuff cause like, they understand English enough to sing in it, but they clearly haven't fully grasped it yet and their syntax makes no sense and it's sort of hilarious.
Satellite 04.20.17	yeah i always noticed that about millencolin's older lyrics too. something is just slightly off, but it gives their music a weirdly endearing quality. they were one of the many bands i discovered because of punk-o-rama. shit, that's how i discovered fucking converge.
onionbubs 04.20.17	green day kickstarted my music influence but i don't know a single band who's affected me to the extent of alkaline trio
AcidCaravan 04.21.17	I LOVED their old stuff, saw them live 6 times from 1992 to 2003. But my favorite shit from them is their older stuff, I always loved even the "Maximum Rocknroll" comp, which most people (even Mike himself) loathes. It's fucking great, raw, snotty and ignorant as punk rock should always be. Anyway, I think "Ribbed" is my absolute favorite NOFX album. And "So Long and Thanks for All the Shoes". But after the great "Pump Up the Valium" they lost it in my humble opinion...
Satellite 04.21.17	oh man, the early ep's are just brutal. my favorite part of their book is them talking about those times. they had no idea what they were doing and audiences hated them but they didn't give a fuck. have you heard their new one? it's their best since putv imo.
Satellite 04.21.17	also fat mike was on doug stanhope's podcast recently. very interesting discussion. hearing 2 of my heroes shooting the shit was pretty awesome. https://youtu.be/IGT22b20P8g?t=6612
Masochist 04.21.17	Punk-O-Rama was great. That's how I learned about Refused, Motion City Soundtrack, The Black Keys and others ('Rubber Factory' is still my favorite album by the latter).
SlothcoreSam 06.25.22	Solid list, agree hard with The Decline at number 1, will have to figure out the rest now.
