Regaining Unconsciousness ReviewThere is no longer that much doubt in my mind that this 15 minute long ear candy is NOFX's best release to date! In fact I will not only go as far as to say this is the best NOFX release to date, but will also even say that this is quite possibly the best release from any band to date with the only possible exception is the "Land of the Free?" Pennywise CD! I admit I had my doubts when I first picked up this EP. I was worried that this CD was going to be the start of the downfall of NOFX. However, I was so fu:cken wrong that I am now smacking myself over the head for thinking it! If you are having your doubts and thinking that they are about to turn into a total pop/punk band that isn't really all that great because of the Rancid-NOFX split cover album: Think again! This is nothing of the sort and nothing short of amazing!
Words can't explain just how fantastic the sound to this CD is. It's NOFX like you never could possibly imagine until you hear it! It is fantastic progression from "Pump Up the Valuum". However, comparing this to releases in earlier in NOFX's career hardly does this release justice to how great it really is! The lyrics to this album are by far the most political release by NOFX to date (with the exception of "The Decline" but hey, that was just one song). As track 2-4 out of 5 tracks are all political (track 5 being an untitled preview to the next CD, more on that later). But seriously, what do you expect with all the Bs currently going on right now? The lyrics to this CD go beyond basic "the Decline" easy to understand (minus the metaphors) political lyrics. Rather than just a simple call for revolution, they go down to specifics of all the madness going on in today's world. The intelligence and sophistication of this CD is about just as high as those of Crass! And yet at the same time NOFX's fantastic sense of humor is still present! This album should shut up the political punk elitists who bash NOFX lyrics when they hear this!! This may turn off some NOFX fans but I am most certainly not one of them!
This CD starts off with "Medio-Core" which is a fantastic opening song that clearly shows the progression NOFX has made since "Pump Up the Valuum". The lyrics are about unoriginal punk bands as well as the today's punk rock in general. Next is the song "Idiots are taking Over" which marks the beginning of a new more political NOFX. Ironically with a sound a lot like "The Decline". However, I have to say that personally when I hear this song I can't help be reminded of them meaning THE OPPOSITE of what the actual mean (ie: we, leftists, are taking over). I have to say other than this country turning into a bunch of nationalists, I disagree with NOFX here. Next is my personal favourite "Franco Un-American" which talks about so many political issues it's impossible to take it all in the first time around. It's a slower song that I guess could be compared to something top-notch from their "So Long...." album. Next up is the last listed track, "Hardcore 84" which as said on the back is the only actual song on here NOT to be released on their upcoming full Length. Almost practically the entire song is sung by Melvin and is also clearly the fastest song on this CD. So obviously, these two things put together very much give it a rawer sound, much like their earlier work. Old fans disappointed with the new sound will praise this song I think. Then Finally, is the final bonus track which is done a lot like a commercial. With little excerpts from each song and quite hilarious! It is a total teaser! I'd tell you some of the jokes from it but I wouldn't want to spoil it for you, now would I?
So overall, NOFX's newest release is an amazing work of art that is not to be passed up by any NOFX fan. I can't wait until "The War on Errorism" comes out on May 6th. There is no doubt about it, I will be FIRST in line when it does. Peace.Regaining Unconsciousness Overview
