NOFX have given up the dirt on their next release, The Longest EP, which will come out on August 17 through Fat Wreck Chords. The album is a collection of 30 tracks from EPs, as well as some out of print tracks, rarities, and out-takes that haven’t made it our ears before – click here for the full track listing. The tracks were all recorded between 1987 and 2009, and there will be a limited 2xLP release to accompany the CD. Oh, and the 5 EPs that these tracks are from are all going out of print, so get ’em while you can.
We announced a draft of the cover art for the album earlier today – it’s by the same guy who did The Longest Line and the final version is over <== there; the update includes Erik Melvin. NOFX had a similar release in 2002 with 45 or 46 Songs That Weren’t Good Enough To Go On Our Other Records, which was a 2-CD set of tracks from vinyl-only, compilation, and EP releases.
