Band Name Origins:
- The band got this name from a band named Negative FX. NOFX wanted to be a band that would be around for a while (Which they have been) and they thought Negitive FX was dumb, because they only put out one album. NOFX uses Effects, such as flange and Ping Pong reverb on songs. It does NOT mean No Effects. Or No Function! Submitted by: Adrian
- From the official website - The Name "Mike and I use to hang out at his house and listen to all of his punk rock records. We tried to come up with good band names. I said No FX after a band who had put out one record and broken up called Negative FX. Mike agreed that it was the best one so far. There seemed to be a lot of gimmicky bands around at the time. We like to think that our name meant we were against that shit. In 1983 three of the four members were into the straight edge movement following Minor Threat's first single, but we were never a straight edge band, OK?" Submitted by: Stacey

Misrhymed Song Lyrics:
"Idiots Are Taking Over"
The Misrhymed Lyrics: Darwin's rolling over in his coffin
'Cause the fittest are surviving much less often Now everything seems to be reversing And it's worsening Why They're Misrhymed: Wow. Two appalling rhymes in four lines - that's quite a feat. You can almost make 'coffin' rhyme with 'oftin' (if you're a Kiwi), but 'reversing' doesn't rhyme with 'worsening' in *any* accent.
Submitted by: Red Tim
| "Please Play This Song On the Radio"
The Misrhymed Lyrics: Almost every line is sung in time
And almost every line ends in a rim Why They're Misrhymed: Deliberately misrhymed but funny
