NOFX are set to play two shows at O2 Academy Brixton in June, as part of their farewell tour dates.
The gigs will mark the legendary punk band’s final shows in London, as they wind-up a career of more than 40 years.
The two special nights will take place on June 11 and 12, and see NOFX play three different albums each night.
On Tuesday 11 June, the band will perform ‘Punk In Drublic’, ‘Wolves in Wolves’ Clothing’ and ‘Pump Up’, with support from Descendents, Codefendants, Pulley and Last Hounds.
On Wednesday 12 June, meanwhile, they’ll play ‘So Long & Thanks’, ‘White Trash’ and ‘The Decline’, with support from Circle Jerks, SNUFF, The Meffs and The Last Gang.
Tickets go on sale from 10am Friday, 15 March, with priority tickets available from 10am Wednesday, 13 March – visit here for more information and to buy.
News of the two special shows – at a venue where they made their first appearance two decades ago – follows the recent release of new music from the band, with their latest single ‘I’m A Rat’ taken from their forthcoming album ‘Half Album’, which is set for release Friday, April 19 via Fat Wreck Chords.
Speaking of the project, NOFX bassist and vocalist Fat Mike has asked:
“Was it worth it? Was it worth spending five years finishing the five songs on my double album project that I thought were the worst of the bunch?
“Was it a good idea to spend so much time raising the runts of the litter? Was it an error in judgement when I wrote a song about the magnitude of my arrogance?
“I think the answers to all of these rhetorical questions might be found by listening to this half-sided album… but I seriously doubt it.”
