Chris Hannah is an amazing lyricist and was damn good even way back, I just can't jive with anything aside from today's empire much musically. I didn't really have a Epitaph/Fat Wreck phase of being a punk, kinda jumped from Green Day to 77 stuff to Crass and more DIY stuff, the earlier stuff is too NOFX-y for me and the later stuff is just a bit too metal and not the metal I wanna listen to. Seen them numerous times and it was always fun.
I hear you 100% but I'm almost the opposite. Their new stuff, or even after the fat wreck phase/falling out, whatever, is amazing don't get me wrong, the dude is a lyrical genius and changed my life at 13 years old, but my heart belongs with the skate punk era of all those guys. but especially propaghandi. Granted, I'm 41 now and totally given up on trying new musical tastes LMFAO but I know exactly how you feel. I'm fact I'm certain this was the definitive album where they transitioned into what they are today. That's the cool thing about these particular punk bands, they grew up and changed and so did we. Some of us changed with them and some of us, like me, kind of couldn't let go lol.
