Self Entitled [CD]

After more than a quarter century as a band, not only are NOFX not slowing things down, but they're actually getting more aggressive. It's like they ve got some sort of Benjamin Button s*** going on. 'Self Entitled' is NOFX s 12th (!!!) studio full-length, yet it feels as potent as any material they've ever released. Rather than drifting off into a land of forgettable and mindless rehashes of their older material like many other veteran acts. NOFX approached 'Self Entitled' with a reinvigorated virility. The 12 tracks fully embrace the hostile early LA punk sound while maintaining just the right amount of that trademark technical and melodic sound that NOFX is renowned for. As with all NOFX albums, the subject matter on 'Self Entitled' is diverse (politics, religion, s&m, etc.), but there is a more cohesive mood this time around. The majority of the songs display a more personal perspective from Fat Mike, which lends a more intimate feeling to the album over-all.
