I'm voting just for the little joke in the last paragraph, made me chuckle.
Anyways, I agree, this is superb and my favorite NOFX song by far. However, I think you could have been little more detailed. You completely skipped over one of the longest sections and most intense sections of the song, the outro. The horns and stomping feet are just amazing, and I'm surprised you didn't mention it at all.
But, good review other than that, maybe just a little more detail.

I liked the story-nature of the review that still gave a general idea of what the CD sounded like... could have had slightly more info, but as a first impression type of review I can't find fault at all.

That's five notes on a Bb trumpet!

and your point is? some of the best hooks ever written have been made from only a handful of notes! there's room in the book of good songwriting for both complexity AND simplicity. which, incidentally are two qualities which "the decline" displays most impressively throughout.
there's some totally sick drumming and bass work, and some relatively difficult guitar parts (more for the sheer speed than anything) and some incredibly effective yet extremely simple parts. the only way to make a song of this length work is to use alternating dynamics well, which they have.
oh, and back to your "five notes"... one of the most epic parts in music that i can think of off the top of my head is the main riff of "hallowed be thy name" by iron maiden, which is a simple lead riff (of FIVE NOTES) over a simple progression of three chords.
P.S. i forgot to mention, pretty good review! like the others, i think it could have been more descriptive, but it did sum up well, and i like the writing style, i'll vote.This Message Edited On 09.08.07

Not the only reason the song is amazing, although his review would lead you to believe otherwise.

This review had one tiny paragraph on the actual music, the rest describes how "you might've felt ripped off at first when you bought this for X money while it's only one song!!". I'm sorry, but I though it was rather pointless. You said so little about what we will HEAR, and you should clearly have commented on the lyrical content as well.This Message Edited On 09.08.07

Definately NOFX at their best.

The longest paragraph was the one about the music. Just trying to keep the review interesting, I'm sorry.

I thought this review was well-written, but I thought it could have been either longer or better structured.

If Nofx never did anything else, this would be enough. I wish they put as much effort into all their records because when they do, it's pretty darn good

This song is definately NOFX's masterpiece. Even the manner in which they released it is really amazing and innovative. The lyrics are relevant and insightful, and overall this is a really great piece of art
