NOFX es un nombre que resuena con fuerza en el universo del punk rock. Desde su formación en 1983 en Los Ángeles, California, la banda se ha mantenido como una vanguardia en la escena musical, destacándose por su estilo irreverente, letras provocadoras y un compromiso firme con la independencia. Este recorrido narra la historia de un grupo que no solo dejó una marca indeleble en el punk rock, sino que también influyó en generaciones de músicos y fanáticos.
La historia de NOFX comenzó a principios de los años 80, cuando Mike Burkett, mejor conocido como "Fat Mike", y Eric Melvin decidieron formar una banda. Los tempos acelerados y las guitarras distorsionadas del punk rock los inspiraron para crear su propio sonido. Con la incorporación del baterista Erik Sandin, NOFX completó su formación inicial.
En 1985, lanzaron su primer EP, "NOFX" (también conocido como "The Demo"), y luego su primer álbum completo, "Liberal Animation", en 1988. Este último fue producido por Brett Gurewitz de Bad Religion, quien también era el fundador de Epitaph Records. El álbum sentó las bases de lo que vendría, con letras cargadas de crítica social y política, y un sonido enérgico y crudo.
A principios de los 90, NOFX firmó con Epitaph Records y lanzó "Ribbed" en 1991. Sin embargo, fue en 1994 cuando la banda alcanzó un notable éxito con el lanzamiento de "Punk in Drublic". Este álbum es considerado uno

2 s The Big Drag LyricsBefore James died he smiled and laughed
'Cause he was just photographed for the last time
While it was drowned the kitten purred
At least that's what I thought I heard
But maybe that's 'cause I need to believe in the absurd
Ashes to ashes after the planet crashes
I trust all dust will turn to dust
I used to think a wasted life was not a crime
That's before I realized we don't have very much more time
My melodies are maladies my poetries are just phonetic
Trying to make sense of this world is preposterous pathetic
The Gods have had their fun playing this world but now it's too upsetting
The human race is not worth watching or wagering on
We're just a longshot, an underdog with odds so bad now it's just a blood letting
So, every deity with dignity has just stopped betting
So, follow me into a world of anything you've ever dreamed
Now that morality is blurred if you listen really closely
You probably believe in every single word
Mesmerized by rhetorical and memorized historical events
That never actually occurred
We're not blind we're bound and blinded our minds have been land minded
And I'm so excited!

'Cause if you thought that you were wrong
You'd change your mind fuck from black to white
I do believe in True Romance
So, I'm gonna dance and fight and fuck with every moment
I'll always have something in my glass to raise
To make a toast for those making the most of the last days
Nothing is ever gonna change, nothing will ever be ok
Nothing is ever gonna change, nothing will ever be ok
There's only a finite number of tomorrows
And it's not a lot but it's all we really got, it's all we really got
Live each precious moment that we can manage to carve out of each day
So, when it's time for us to die we'll say our short goodbye
There is no sadness if there's no one left to cry
