Biography

Hi. Ive already written a bio for NOFX which was on the main page. But i could\'ve written a better one, so here it is.

NOFX is one of the most anticipated punkbands in these last few decades. The 3 original band members are; Fat Mike(bass, vocals),Erik Melvin(guitar) and Eric Sandan(drums). They met at the age of 17 at the Cathay de Grande in Hollywood, LA, California, but they are originally from Berkley. They released their first album \'Maximum Rock and Roll\' in 1984, which they didnt even know got released until they saw it in the shops. Also that year they did their first tour over Easter vacation. After playing a lot of shows, In 1986, a guy called Dave joins the band as lead singer, but tragically dies two months later in a car accident. In 1987, another guy called Dave joins the band as lead guitarist, and they release their first popular album, \'Liberal Animation\',in 1988, which sold 1,800 copies its first year. Also that year they did their first European tour. In 1989, the band realised that Dave was more of a fun guy to be around at parties than a guitarist who knew all the NOFX songs. They tried to part with him on friendly terms, but he got angry and insisted he was leaving the band himself. Later that year, a Cucasian named Steve joined the band as lead guitarist, and they release a new album,\'S+M Airlines\', which sold 2,300 copies its first year. After another tour, they release \'Ribbed\' in 1991, which Mike thinks was their \"first descent record\". It sold 13,000 copies in its first year. Also that year, Steve quits the band to start a new band. In 1992, El Hefe joins the band as lead guitarist, and they release an EP,\'The Longest Line\',and later that year, they release \'White tash, two heebs and a bean\', which sold 30,00 copies it\'s first year. In 1994, they release a new album \'Punk In Drublic\' which went half gold. From here on in, their albums sell less everytime(but still an awesome band). In 1996, they release \'Heavy Petting Zoo\'.That year, record store in France shuts down because of the posters associated with this album. In 1997, they release a new album \'So long and thanks for all the shoes\'.Then in 1999, they release the EP,\'The Decline\',which entered the top 200 chart at #200, then dropped out. Then they released another album \'Pump up the Valuum\' in 2000. In 2001, they put out a double record,\'45 or 46 songs that werent good enough to go on our other albums\', which apparently has all their crappy songs. Then in 2002 they do a split record and a tour with Rancid. The following year in 2003, they release a very political album \'The War on Errorism\'. Then in 2004, they are featured on the \'Rock against Bush\' compilation, and they finally release their \'Best Of\' album, \'The Greatest Songs Ever Written\'.

I HATE GOOD CHARLOTTE> THEY ARE NOT PUNK THEY ARE POP!!!!! GAY FAGZ!!!!	Fat_Mart
I don't hate them. I dislike the fact that everyone thinks they are punk, which they most definatly aren't but oh well let them think what they want and maybe someday, hopefully they will discover some real punk. Until then I think everyne should stop raggin on them. It's not doing anything but pissing a lot of people off.	L1th1um
ryan phone me with the b8usinfo	volanal
good charlotte are nothing but 5 gay boys tryin to make a name for themself in the punkrock industry. they suck. NOFX, Green Day, Millencolin, Rancid and all the other proper punk bands should be the ones controlling the punk scene, not the fags from good charlotte. simple plan suck too.	punk_rock_rebel

anyone on mtv is NOT real punk	chrisrjones112005
(good charlotte)	chrisrjones112005
I think they both suck. NOFX is too into that against the president thing, I mean I absolutly hate the president but I'm not obsessed with insulting him in EVERY SONG I WRITE!	your_nightmare
Come on if u could insult the president in every song u wrote and publish it so everyone could listen to your oppinion u wouldnt?	NO-Core
yea i agree with No_Core on that...plus not EVERY one of their songs are about that....and why does everyone always pick on emo?...it doesnt all suck and have to be whiny...	MyChemicalWombat
I agree with MyChemicalWombat why does everyone pick on EMO?	NO-Core
For me it's too BIAS to defend your NOFX!!!! all of you think to them are all positive, you can't see their negative ones!!! I know that Good Charlotte are POSERS!!! because they're not punk but in my point of view, if you're not passionate, don't just depend NOFX in a malicious punky way!!!! Please respect my opinion!!!! Your point of view is getting stale, I think it's time for me to bail. Another one, you mentioned GREENDAY are punk but Why BLINK 182 aren't? had you listen to their DUDE RANCH album? It's fun PUNK!!!! and obviously far more punk than SIMPLE PLAN and GOOD CHARLOTTE!!!!	avvi_182
no really GC and SP are gay ass poser punk/emo they are pop MTV crap	FattyMcfatfat18
yeah simple plan and good charlotte are stupid bands! have u ever notice how the Vocalist of the good charlotte sangs their song? they are doin' such higher tunes that they are kinda' like at the american idol.. they sucks a lot! NOFX... awesome.	damn-freak05
Im sorry but NOFX sucks crack.	metalCHAINS
Says the Slipknot fan.	GASPATCHO
i like all different types of music but i cant stand NOFX.	metalCHAINS
I like a lot of genres of music. I even like a couple of songs by Good Charlotte. But they don't compare to NOFX! NOFX RAWKZ HARD!!!!	katiejk85
well first off its sad for thinking u are punk! or whatever, and lets not lable bands it's not nice, oh yeah And i hate the word posers Damn if u say someone's a poser thats the same like thinking ur Better than someone and thinking ur better tahn someone els make s u the same like Hitler and all those guys, be nice and keep ur thaughts in ur mind u pre-pubescent monkey u can be nice i think..(when u sleep r sumting) and let everybody think and like what they like Dude...AND REMEMBER Its all about music !	NofxRoxWOASD
and oh yeah (i dont like labeling but) Nofx is FunPunk!	NofxRoxWOASD
Ok Greenday back in the day... yes it can be compared to NOFX. But greenday now with that pussy whiped album american idiot... It's no contest on who the winner is... NOFX. and you can never and I mean Ever compare NOFX to Blink- gay ass little bounce around ass raming little fagots 182 to NOFX. Blink 182 are fags and will always be marked as fags. I think Sum-41 is a hell of alot better then those little Homo fucks.	DLoc
Most main stream "punk" bands are not really punk, yeah green day was punk back in the day, but now... yeah you get the picture	tacoman
I accually enjoy some of good charlottes work. But they are not punk. I'm smart enough to know that. And I prefer NOFX over them.	IAmARevenant
