[@JeffAbarta]

Really well done! I have worked at Epitaph since 1991, and this really brought back a ton of memories. Can’t wait for the second installment! FYI, Fat Mike wrote a song about me called Jeff Wears Birkenstocks.

[@californiahowland1277]

Wears his birkenstocks to work, is he a jerk? No just confused, Jeff dont wear regular shoes.

[@tr3vk4m]

ha ha ha I loved the line about the tie-dyed rancid shirt it painted such a great image. Jeff you must be cool to get your own song, for a confused guy!

[@reijerlincoln]

Too cool. It's quite a difficult song to play well (for me at least) because of the palm-muted rhythm guitar part.

[@ashleywebb7695]

No he didn't lol

[@joewebster3532]

ty Jeff, and your shoooees!

[@__beer__]

I met Eric Melvin at their last show in Melbourne, Australia. He is a really great guy!

[@blackbeard82]

The first NOFX song I heard was “We threw gasoline on the fire and now we have stumps for arms and no eyebrows” off of the Punk o Rama 3 comp in 98. From there I had a bootleg copy of So long and thanks for all the shoes on cassette that throughly hooked me in and THEN I moved over to listening to punk in drublic and the greater back catalog.

[@Screaminmyear]

Heavy Petting Zoo was the first NoFX album i listened to back in 96. This skater kid sat behind me in science class and he had the CD. He asked if i knew who they were, i said no. I became a fan that day.

[@Johnny2Bags47]

great album

[@wickedfresh2012]

One of their best albums

[@newagain9964]

That album was the start of NOFX becoming meme. Just completely full on pop

[@frankmusgrove8498]

Guys, NOFX literally has an autobiography written by every member that details all of this and is a very easy and very fun read. I highly recommend it, especially if you found this video interesting. This video was very well done as well, though, and I plan on checking out more of your videos for sure. But the book gets deep into the craziness of their careers and is crazy how much they went through.

[@thepunkhistorian6397]

Where do you think I did my research? 😂

[@HashiTomi]

It is such a good read. I love busting it out and reading a chapter or 2 for my wife's friends and it blows their minds.

[@MrNiceguyofficial]

I learned guitar from NOFX tabs now im a music teacher guitar bass piano and synth thanks Mike thanks Jussi Heinonen

[@zorglug]

I learned bass from his tabs and IMO, JiiHoo tabs is fully part of the NOFX ethos and history at this point.

[@austinblevins9741]

Please please please do a snfu history. You always do these bands justice and snfu is super important and underrated

[@jessejorgensen3931]

I remember when punk in drublic came out. I was on furlough from rehab and me, and this skater kid made our way into the record store. If it was like, wtf? I had been into punk for a bit by that time. In 93 rancid self titled was realeased. It blew my mind. Never heard a punk band quite like them. Then a year later nofx does the sams thing. Then a year later outcome the wolves. And many many more awesome records.

[@BOMBPHONICS]

Damn I love NOFX. I’d heard the name mid to late 90’s and found a used copy of Heavy Petting Zoo. I’d heard the name and the album cover was so wildly inappropriate in the most hilarious of ways, I knew it was time to check them out. Changed my life forever. I dove in to punk hard.

[@mylesayres6060]

Okay, holy s**t , as much as I love the transformation of the punk scene in the 90's... I was expecting the deep dive into the history NOFX had back then. But, the shout-out to the likes of Samiam and the like blew me away. I didn't think that bands like that were still on anyone's radar. I mean, it makes sense, considering your depth of knowledge, and you playing with Diesel Boy and all... That being the reason I keep coming back... Keep on doing what you're doing brother. You're probably the only one keeping the true history of punk alive. Hats off to you man... ✌️ Looking forward to part two! P.S. thanks for wearing the NUfaN shirt. Tells all you need to know.

[@thewillformerlyknownasartist]

Billy, Clumsy, and Astray are 3 amazing punk/emo albums. Samiam is definitely a huge influence on a lot of people’s playing today whether they realize it or not.

[@ryanscheuer3879]

This is the most collective tale of NOFX ever told! Well done!!!!

[@concreteheadentertainment]

Well, nofx has book. You should read it (or listen to it)

[@CampingInParadise]

Nofx wrote an autobiography that this video is heavily inspired on. You should the book

[@Zerdok311]

Good god damn! Now this is a video! I’ve followed NoFx pretty consistently since 1994 and this vid is easily the most thorough youtube mini-doc I’ve seen on NoFx. I genuinely enjoyed watching it and a lot of it was because it’s obvious the host actually knows and enjoys NoFx’s discography. Great job man!

[@LetsGetThatMoleCheckedOut]

A lot of early info I never knew of my fav. band of all time....Love the video!! Keep up the great work!

[@noahfecks7598]

Funny thing about I Heard They Suck Live back in the 90's: I was about 14 when I discovered NOFX (Thanks to Punk O Rama 1). It was after Punk in Drublic and before Heavy Petting Zoo. Once I got into them, I really got into them. Eventually getting all previous records. But here's the thing: I wasn't really sure what they actually looked like. Mystic, Liberal Animation, Ribbed, Longest Line, Whitetrash, Punk in Drublic: none of these albums had too much to offer as far as photos of the band other then confusing little snips of pictures. So when I Heard They Suck Live came out I knew every single song (well, basically) and listened to it nonstop. But the whole time I never had a clear image of who these guys were singing and playing these songs. It's kind of a weird concept these days but pre-google and pre-youtube there really was no other way for a kid in a small rural town of Pennsylvania to get info let alone photos of punk bands like NOFX. So for the longest time, my favorite band was shrouded in mystery until the late 90's when I finally got my hands on 10 Years of Fucking Up. It was totally bizarre seeing them actually playing these songs that I knew. Even at that time, Heavy Petting Zoo and So Long would come out and add to the mystery because they didn't have pictures either. Finally in 1998 I'd see them live for the first time in Philly with the Bouncing Souls (another band I loved and had almost no concept of what they looked like) and I saw what they actually looked like and it was mindblowing. Yeah, they basically looked like four dudes in a punk band, but after so many years of mystery it was amazing to see them actually playing the songs I had grown to love. Great video, my man. Looking forward to the next!

[@brendancarson8325]

I can relate to this. I first saw what they look like live at a "big day out" Auckland New Zealand around '99 having listened to them for quite a while before this.

[@thepunkrawkguru4794]

I love when you do these history videos. You’re amazing at it! I’m still going to beg and ask on every video…. Please do Swingin’ Utters. They are my all time favorite band and I feel like you would do them justice, in which most really don’t. Happy Hollidays and happy new year brother!

[@robertfryer9821]

Love your channel, just today I was in a gas station ( Raul Montana)and rancid was playing, I told the young 18 year old kid behind the counter that I appreciate him playing Rancid he insisted that it was minor threat, I had to slow him down and let him know that he’s going down the right path but there is a plethora of information for him to go through I’ve been listening to punk since I was 11 in 92 and still are navigating the great bands of original street punk. I guess I will direct him to your channel

[@xwhite2020]

Epic effort putting this together! From a Nofx fan, thank you.

[@powerviolentnightmare5026]

I've listened to the Hepatitis Bathtub audiobook before but I appreciate this short history telling of the greatest awful band in the world.

[@mikeyfn-a6684]

That was a bit of a project to spend every night trying to remember where I left off before inevitably (NO disrespect at all!) falling asleep.* It was often interestingly trippy to wake up to the middle of the night in the middle of the audiobook, in the dark, and having to piss. It sometimes took me a minute. 😂❤👍

[@danpiazza3803]

It was a fun listen....though extremely f***d up.

[@mikeyfn-a6684]

@@danpiazza3803 I remember falling to sleep listening to the audio for a week er so some years ago off YT and waking up in the middle of the story saying "Woah...WTF??"..then remembering just what I was listening to 😂

[@MightyMelvo]

hey dude! I'm watching you since the skate punk crass course video and I just wanna say thank you for what you're doing!

[@martijnk2430]

Looking forward too see them in the netherlands this year . Ribbed is my favorite album with absolute classics (in my view) like “cheese wheres my slice” and “malanchi crunch” etc

[@mohollywood]

this lesson for me was one of the best and most eye-opening. Thank You!

[@mistorWhiskers]

It was 1995, I'm ten years old and I'm hanging with some of my parents friend's kids that were pretty cool in my parent's party bus while they were off getting drunk in a boat or something. They were three brothers, one younger, one my age and one older. The older brother was this cool skateboarder, and he asked if we could use the tape deck deck on the bus. He had three tapes, Rancid's ...And Out Come the Wolves, Pennywise's Unknown Road, and Nofx's Punk and Drublic. He ended up forgetting those tapes in the bus so copied them all starting a life long love if punk. The first time I was allowed to go to a show alone with my friends was Orlando Warped Tour in 2000 where I saw Nofx for the first time and I was able to catch them one last time at the same venue for the final time.

[@miketokles9451]

I live in orlando too all my life, I went to the first warped tour in sanford at the tsunami beach club and I was also at the 2000 one at the fairgrounds

[@UToobSteak]

Man, I had Punk in Drublic, Minor Threat, and Unknown Road on loop in 1994. Good times

[@TomBeule]

i saw them first time 1994 on their Monstour in Germany ,Hannover .. and the next and last time In Hannover in May 2024 in Hannover.. Nofx is one of the most seen Band for me.. i thought 8-10 times.. only one was really bad at an Hurricane Festival while Mike is on Coke... i loved them

[@danntozer]

Amazing video man! 🙌 Although I'm from Perth, Australia - I'm seeing both nights of their final tour shows in Melbourne in a few weeks! I'll be listening to Hepatitis Bathtub audio book for the '72nd' time on my flight over to eastern Aus to soak in their history for sure. Can't wait for Ep two of this bro 🤘 Keep 'em coming!

[@drazzle8291]

Great video as always. Their book Hepatitis Bathtub is a good read too for those interested in the story. Really enjoyed the book.

[@phrebh]

I've got "Punk In Drublic" on CD, LP, and cassette because the "more punk than me" schtick at the end was different on all of them. And when I was working in Vienna, Austria, in the summer of '95, I saw a poster for their tour and went with a British friend. Only a couple of years ago did I realize that Weezer also played. I had totally forgotten!

[@Chad-ye3ui]

That's too funny! I did the same thing with "Pump up the Valuum", cuz the intro tune is different on all three. Cheers!

[@lawrencehobson6848]

Idk why when i was younger i always favored "punk in drublic" and "white trash two heebs and a bean" some of the older albums. But now my definitive favorite album is "so long and thanks for all the shoes" there are so many songs on that album that are literally masterpieces.. and they are so what id call "real life depressing" i just love them

[@WilDBeestMF]

I love S&M, white trash, drublic etc but I agree with you that So long.. is probably my favourite album. Mad underrated. Some of their best work lyrically and musically and it just doesn't let up.

[@dave011679]

It’s the best NOFX album. You don’t skip a single song and the band is at their peak musically

[@BadHabitdub420]

Fuckin awesome video man. NOFX has been my favorite band since about 96' 13 year old me fell in love instantly. You really touched on something when talking about the comedy aspect. That is one of the reasons I love them so much is that they are always fucking hilarious on stage. Great video!

[@yooreochill6476]

The Longest Line E.P.! Stranded and The Tragedy of John Smith had percussion and bass dialed! Fast and clean sound!

[@michaelfloyd9692]

Very cool video. My brother, Jeff Floyd, was the lead singer for Subculture. NOFX would always come out to the lake during their tours and hang out for a few days.

[@michaelpfogerty]

Punk in Drublic pulled me in in '95 when I was in junior high after a friend loaned me their cassette tape. I saw them in '97 when they were touring to promote So Long and Thanks for All the Shoes; my friends and I thought it was a farewell tour lol. My favorite albums are: 1. Heavy petting Zoo 2. So Long and Thanks... and 3. War on Errorism

[@Codbraski]

Always look forward to anytime you upload. NOFX is a band that I often have to remind myself I like as much as I do. Like as much as I wanna pretend I’m cooler then listening to nofx I’m just not. (Lagwagon is however better imo and rule my heart but oh well lol)

[@Rafael_Barato]

Thank you for your excellent work! Cheers from Brazil ♥

[@patricksoler]

Great job, man. So many people Don't spend the time on this band that they deserve. They gloss over the importance of their early days and have a full chronological history is awesome.

[@BillAdams-fb3jm]

I can't exactly remember what the first music I heard by NOFX was anymore, but I do remember hearing a little in high school ('94 - '98) and the first time I really started paying attention to Fat Wreck was with Propagandhi's How To Clean Everything came out. I know that when I started really digging into NOFX was when a radio station in Winnipeg banned "Kill All The White Man" in 2005. I was a cub reporter at the time and so got an interview with Fat Mike for a story in a Canadian alt-news weekly. I had already done a lot of reviews of Fat Wreck albums, but that was when I really started digging in to NOFX. I've since written about the band quite a bit for several mags and had a great time doing it.

[@brendancarson8325]

Good work dude. 🖖 I never knew that much about the pre hefe days until now.

[@jaded9087]

My first introduction to NOFX was the EP the longest line about 94? It turned out to be my fravorit CD in my boyfriend's collection at the time and i haven't stopped loving their music to this day.

have had the pleasure of having Mark Rooney aka Agression drummer to come to the Mexican restaurant I used to work for as bartender in Naples/FL at least twice a week for some Taco Salad and speak about punk rock! being myself from Brazil and a total punk rock fan to the roots it blew my mind his stories about beibg Mickey Rooney's son and all his going on about the early nardcore scene! fuck I miss those days and luckily I still chat to Matk even though I live in Australia now for the past 12yrs. miss those chats with him about green day opening their gigs and shit! good oldie days!

[@platypuspracticus2]

First NOFX was So Long and I probably got it a year or so after it came out? I know I got into NOFX before Pump Up the Valuum came out; not sure if The Decline was out yet or not because this was pre-internet (for me) and it was just what the record store had in stock. Was really introduced to the idea of a band called NOFX through Operation Ivy because there was a photo of Dave Mello's drum kit that had a NOFX sticker on it and at that point, I was finding bands via the liner note thank you's and stickers that bands would rock.

Remember when So Long And Thanks For All The Shoes came out and everyone thought they broke up? That was hilarious.

[@charliedontsurfdude]

I saw NOFX in North Lake Tahoe once, and there was a giant mud pit right in front of the stage, only one person was brave enough to wade in ankle deep mud. She lost both of her shoes. I dont know why that memory stuck with me. Just such a fun band, as long as they don't get to hammered.

[@eatassonthefirstdate]

dude is that a Diesel BOY Cock Rock deck? if so, and Im pretty sure it is, That's fucking AWESOME. I saw em on their 97 tour my freshman year, headlining tour with suicide machines! They opened up with Lime Green I went ape shit. they were one of my favorite bands back in the day. Honest Dons having them, Mad Caddies and early Gimme Gimmes and a few others, I thought as a sub-label that Honest Dons woulda done better. it's like they tried Honest Dons and Epitaph tried Hellcat at the same time. Give em the Boot comp introduced me to Choking Victim same year. that was the best times of my punk rock life😢

[@HappyForestBridge-zj4yh]

Love NOFX & MOTO XXX. Great vid!

[@user-qh1ew3nc9h]

I'd heard a few songs off Ribbed when it came out and thought they were an okay band. Then I heard a super pretentious music snob at my school going on about how Punk In Drublic was the most unlistenable non-musical awful thing ever recorded, and I had to give it a serious listen. I loved the record, but it was I Heard They Suck Live that made me a life long fan. Your point at the end about the intangible personality factor of the band is absolutely spot on. They are not just punk music, they are punk through and through. It always makes me laugh when I read comments from "punks" in online forums saying NOFX aren't punk...cool story, bro. These guys are the real thing.

Was fist introduced to NoFx in '93. My best friend's older brother was in a local punk band PLY. They made a skate video of them traveling all over CA to skate and just generally fucking around and partaking in the devil's lettuce (strictly for medical purposes), part of which was set to Johnny Appleseed. We thought it was the coolest thing on the planet at like 12-13 and it pretty much cemented our own similar path. People used to give me so much shit for loving NoFx during that weird time in the late 90s early 2000s where there was that outbreak of elitist punks that only listened to "real punk"... Whatever the fuck that is. Would claim NoFx were sellouts or posers and would immediately be shut down with a "How? How have they sold out? What makes them posers? Nice fucking misfits leather jacket." Weird times lol!

They started with Perfect government. shit that was not meant don´t get me wrong. i enjoyed. ok time to shut up.

[@MrAlexsaint]

Great stuff! Really appreciate your work. NOFX is the band of my life. I was born in 1983 and in some way, when I discovered them for good (Leave it Alone was the first song, but I started to be a real fan after The War on Errorism), I felt I was growing up with them. You are totally right, it was never about the music only. There are lots of sh*tty songs they made, but I love them for being themselves all along. In June I am going for their Final Tour concert in Berlin and can't wait for that. This is a good time to say goodbye to fans and get some closure. Although, they are not splitting, right? All time favorites of mine: Linoleum, The Decline, The Separation of Church and Skate, Decom-Poseur, Generation Z, Doors and Fours. Waiting for part II
