Song of the Day: NOFX - The Decline

     Punk Week continues here at Loud Noises, and today I've got the mother of all punk songs by the mother of all punk bands. When I was getting into punk in high school, this band more than any other was my gateway, and this song is probably my favourite by them, despite their awesome and deep back catalogue.



     You'd better take a seat, and clear your schedule for a bit, because your punk song for today is the epic single track EP The Decline by NOFX. At more than eighteen minutes long, "The Decline" has got to be one of the longest punk songs ever recorded, and it's easily epic enough to stand toe to toe with any lengthy metal opus. Back in the day we used to start every long car journey with this one, so if you're going somewhere that'll take about 20 minutes to get to, find this one on your phone on youtube and revel in an epic of punk goodness that's ten times longer than it should be.
