3.5 greatEasterInTheBatcave | June 11th 16

This is one of the best punk records ever released, and it's ostensibly a collection of B-sides. Pretty ironic. But because there are zero inhibitions behind the music, it embodies the punk aesthetic perfectly. It's a hilarious listen that never gets dull throughout its two discs and 47 tracks. This is due to its varietous nature (the electronica-tinged "Pods and Gods," the dub mix of "Eat the Meek," the complete ridiculousness of "I Gotta Pee") and childish but hysterical lyrics. The booklet has some of the best liner notes I've ever read, too. 45 of 46 Songs is fantastic. Don't come for tastefulness or class or technicality, come for crass, unadulterated awesomeness.

5.0 classicViolents | September 23rd 06

B-Sides or not, this is NOFX's best work. There's so much variety in the 45 songs, and variety is something NOFX doesn't usually give. Catching Sheep has some excellent punk songs, while Catching Zzzzz's kicks it old-school. Definitley the band's best effort, even if all these songs were recorded randomly in the band's 20 year existence.
