30 Years of F#@$?!in’ Up: NOFX Unveil Career-Spanning Vinyl Box
By The Second Disc, on 01 Jan 09, 2013
Long-running punk outfit NOFX will celebrate three decades of recording with a lavish vinyl box set next month.
The iconoclastic group, led by punk elder statesman “Fat Mike” Burkett, has remained one of the most “pure” (for lack of a better term) American punk groups in their time together, largely eschewing press and having never signed to a major label. (Epitaph has distributed much of their catalogue, but Burkett has also operated indie label Fat Wreck Chords since 1990; that label issued NOFX’s last four studio LPs.)
The 15-LP set includes every studio album the band put out between 1988′s Liberal Animation and last year’s Self/Entitled. As a bonus, it also includes 1999′s fiery The Decline EP and a double-disc set collating all 13 of the band’s 7″ of the Month Club releases between 2005 and 2006.
The hardbound box also includes a replica of the band’s onstage banner. Limited to 2,500 copies worldwide, various configurations available at the Epitaph and Fat Wreck Chords stores feature certain colors of vinyl, as well. Look for this set to ship February 19.
