Even the Transplants?

LMAO. I like Tim Armstrong musically, especially with Op Ivy, and Rancid, but The Transplants, I can't hear them without wanting to shoot myself in the mouth.

NOFX use to be my favorite when I was a teenager. Listening to them now makes me appreciate how good they are. I don't think these guys define the genre, more like rape the genre. But The Decline, best political EP. It was pretty omnious foreshadowed the possibilities of the future.
