A place where good albums are posted. I'm an album-by-album person and mostly prefer instrumental music, so don't expect a lot of complete discographies or music with words.

NOFX - 1984 Demo
I find it odd that Mystic Studios managed to find the song "Ant Attack" from this demo and put it on Maximum Rocknroll, but not the other (better) songs. What the hell? Anyway, this isn't quite as good as Maximum Rocknroll, but it's close. It's a shame that some of these songs didn't make it onto an official release. The playing isn't quite as intense yet and of course the demo production is an acquired taste, but the riffs and energy are still here. The opening track is a hidden rock instrumental gem. The only rhythmic expectation comes from Sandin's drumming, because the rhythm of Melvin's guitar-playing isn't so discernible under the production. Fat Mike's snarl in this demo is cool.
Favorite track: "Play Politics"
Least favorite track: "Ant Attack"
