Nofx WOLVES IN WOLVES CLOTHING

NOFX: Fat Mike. In its three decades-and-counting career, NOFX has come to know its disaffected punk-rocker world inside out. So though WOLVES IN WOLVES CLOTHING features predictable diatribes against the early-21st century Bush presidency (("USA-holes")and the Bible Belt ("Leaving Jesusland"), it also skewers credit-card toting revolutionaries in "The Marxist Brothers" ("the people's revolution is going to be a podcast"), as well as including hymns to Midwestern drinking establishments (including the inspired rhyme of "Minnesota" with "drinking quota"). The band's high-energy punk-rock attack, the inspiration for successive generations of bands, is still intact, and though Fat Mike's lyrics on songs like "You Will Lose Faith" show signs of an increasingly fatalistic worldview, NOFX, contrarian stance and all, is still alive and kicking against the pricks.
