    This is a once-in-a-generation song. Very few bands could even attempt something like this, let alone pull it off.
    A musical manifesto. A masterpiece. The ultimate protest song.

    "The Decline" might be the greatest punk rock song ever written. Never gets old, always fun, and the lyrics get more poignant each year. NOFX is a criminally overlooked/under-appreciated band.

Wait until I introduce you to Gogol Bordello! Wow! Or Pansy Division lol. Haha just wait. Of course, I like LOTS of different types of music. I like all the BEST music. 😊 NOFX is killer.

I think their reasoning behind making The Decline, was that they made a ton of short songs, so they decided to make one long song.

    Great reaction video. Please know that this came out before the TOOL song that sounds like it. Also, you should watch the video of them doing this song live with an orchestra at red rocks. It’s also on the RUclips’s

    Thumbs up for the balls to react to this long masterpiece. And a good decision to roll your spliff during listening and not before. So you could listen for a second time while smoking. ;)
    Now react to NOFX-Generation Z. Much shorter, but perfect Lyric-Music-Combination. ;)
