NOFX is the new KISS...

well... not really.

Nofx still has a ton of integrity in my mind, and the recent Kiss-like (squeeze out every last cent) repressing of their albums is beyond their control. (Probably)

I guess it was only a matter of time before their old record labels realized that people REALLY like buying Nofx records, especially colored vinyl ones.

Some of the more rare ones regularly go for hundreds of dollars, so of course anyone who has the rights to a Nofx album has figured out they can pretty much press them again and again on a different color and it will sell like hot cakes.

"Maximum Rock and Roll", One of their old and absolutely horrible (in a funny, entertaining way) albums has been repressed in pretty much every color imaginable, making the people who have to have every variant buy 10 copies of an album they probably won't even listen to more than once. (if that) Before you ask, I have the orange one. I've listened to it once.

Epitaph is re-pressing all their Nofx vinyl too, a few of them coming in two different colors of course, for the extremists.

I guess it's easy to get cynical, but I'm actually glad these are in print again, I don't really care about getting first pressing of most things, I just like to have albums I like on vinyl, so keep 'em comin' fellas!
