Nofx - Eat the Meek

[unionjerk]

this was the last song played at warped tour minneapolis in like 2006, i think. the best song i heard that day.

[MrJohnny9r]

Just seen them a few months ago in edmonton with Teenage Bottlerocket AMAZING Show. Cant wait till next time :D

[standingontruth1]

Are you a good person?

Have u lied? Have u stolen? Jesus said if you look at a women with lust u have committed adultery with her in your heart.

If God judge’s u by the Ten Commandments will u be innocent or guilty? Heaven or Hell? The Bible teaches despise the value of your eye compared to the value of your soul. would u sell your eye for a million dollars? And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment: Except ye repent, ye shall all likewise perish. needgod.com

[dave59934]

@standingontruth1 Cool stuff, but please tell it someone who cares. And that's not the people who listen to NOFX.

[nickwhesker]

@standingontruth1 You're preaching to the wrong crowd, buddy. Most NOFX fans that I've seen are Athiest.

[Dpix1990]

@standingontruth1 ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME.. POSTING THIS ON A NOFX SONG IS JUST PLAIN DUMB....

[eclipsiumrasa]

@standingontruth1

This one time I was driving down the street with Satan in my car and he was eating a sandwich and God was crossing the road and Satan said "slow down, I wanna hit him with my sandwich" but I said "Nah!" and floored it and totally mowed down God and he did a barrel roll.

The important thing is I didn't listen to Satan right? Oh, and he totally was offering me some of the sandwich too.

wow!!!!!!!! 9 retards visited this page

[RealPDX]

I was conceived to this album!

[danphxaz89]

This song is awesome. I remember when I saw nofx for the first time when I was in sixth grade. The show also including anti-flag, pennywise, tiger army, bad religion, tsunami bomb, and much more.

[TDanceHNZ]

@danphxaz89 Pretty jealous of you right now. Pennywise and NOFX were my favourite bands for ten years before I had the opportunity to see them live, and that was at two separate shows, without any other decent acts.

[snakework]

NOFX songs seem to be replacing love!

[KenBerens]

more like savoring the flavor

[savykevin]

[P0P357UR3]

[Apoktite]

[rocketrobot]

8 people are lame as fuck

[CptCool44]

@rocketrobot hahahahahahahaha



[Stfuandwatchvideos]

I thought this was about how animal slaughtering, since Fat Mike is Vegetarian . Where the fuck have I been...

[DylanHouseShow]

Everybody keeps saying how this song is about capitalism, but really that's just one part of the song. A buddy of mine had this conversation about this song one day, and we kinda figured out that the song is about Social Darwinism, the Idea that the fitest (or richest) will survive, and the part about "Why must we stay" has to do with White flight.

[trancedsailor]

amazing melody here. Wonderful song, even without words.

[sweetsweetwaldo2]

good good song

[maidenrocks98]

One own the air one pay to breathe

[j0hnsucks]

7 people must have stayed where they don't belong.........

[xSkateOrPlayGuitarx]

i was about to like this video, but noticed it was already 420 likes.

so i decided to dislike this video, for the sake of lighting up the bar joint. :]

[lowbuckfabrication]

7 people accidently pushed the wrong button

[blackdarkydarkman]

This Song Is About Eating The Meek And Savouring The Taste

[eatmeimsteak]

"so long and thanks for all the shoes," NoFX likes hitchhikers guide to the universe?

[darthlink66]

@eatmeimsteak ya melvin even has a tattoo that says "Don't Panic" 

[PredictionGuY89]

Some guy gave me a free Fat Wreck Chords CD with all of this bands at the Tony Hawk's Boom Huck Jam back in around 2002 i think? I think it was that year because they were promoting the new release of Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 4. Anyway... even though I was about 10 years old, that CD changed my perception of music and punk rock. This was the last song on that CD.

[IVANANTZ]

Ladies and gentlemen! disclose here some of the revelations of the independent Brazilian Hardcore! watch and comment please!

"Conforme se clip"

[gts5001]

7 people didn't smoke the friendly smoke

[BandicootTOKER]

[anarchysham1]

[ilovespongebobsomuch]

Hahaha yer too right seven people stayed where they don't belong . This tune makes me smile

[bloodclots99]

7 people stayed where they dont belong

[ninjamonster1805]

diggin the reggae twist

[ukgreaterlondon]

days before the biblical god the meek was beaten and killed.

without the meek there would be no health services, no food services and strong people would live like animals fighting like pagans.

[bludgrifter13]

turn this up as loud as you can, or play it

[imJustBlazed]

cause there aint ever gonna be enough space

[kingxskippy]

dis song goes ham nigga

[BradPierce89]

[Bieji]

[ptgb57pt]

@Bieji suicide machines - stand up

Some streetlight maybe? but alot of there stuff gets fast.

big d and the kids table - strictly rude

[Bieji]

@ptgb57pt Thanks so much man. I've already listened to Streetlight for a while, but never heard of the other two, and they're great.

[ptgb57pt]

@Bieji some local shit, like "one night band" one of my fav songs are "1234 1234" by streetlight, or linoleum by streetlight (yes its a nofx cover)

[QweenAIPVIP]

@Bieji check out the specials. good ska. you might like the song ghost town

[Thelostboy808]

@Bieji Oops I OD'd

[Nycewell]

@Bieji Kill All the White man NOFX it gets kinda fast at the end tho

[Trevor9849]

@Bieji Anything by The Specials

Anything by sublime

[anarchist63]

thier lyric are hard you should listen several times just like crass

[slapbassboy1]

Hey everybody look at this idiot vv he believes everything on wikipedia and he can't take a joke. Plus his breath probably smells like a bag of smashed assholes. !!

[FBMbikes100]

Negative FX quit plaing in nofx's seen and they just said thats who they where at there first gig and that was the end of that its on wiki

[NiklasErOver18]

The live version is actually bette. :b

[dylanstanton]

Ive never heard this version. I only had the version on 45 or 46 Songs That Weren't Good Enough to Go on Our Other Records. lol

[u69me2008]

have sex

[NazisRaus2343]

NOFX is so cool! Fuck of Fascism!

[HANK0000]

I can't believe how many people are arguing over their name. It doesn't matter.

Even though it doesn't matter, I feel like I should point out what the name is actually from. As mentioned before, they just ripped it off from the band Negative FX. This has been confirmed by the band. If anyone wants me to, I could probably even find a link to this. Now stop arguing over pointless shit.

[voltar691]

@HANK0000 but isn't that what punks do? argue of things they know nothing about!?

[zekeybomb]

@voltar691 um no we argue things we dont agree with

[voltar691]

@HANK0000 but isn't that what punks do? argue of things they know nothing about!?

[ayranbarbarian]

there is only so much room. Eat The Meek! sorry,better luck next time...

[strunx10]

i miss the good old days.

[pchevere]

why must we stay.....where we dont belong.

lets open our eyes and make a world of our own.

fuck the government

government: the governing of all men.

[Yourphobiaaa]

Old Good Times

[currymilkshake3]

Why was this not on there greatest hits?!

[angelaalways]

one of THE best nofx songs.....ever.

[MDE1992]

although I can't relate to their lyrics their music is freaking great

[1986hangman]

this song is about capitalism, and its effects for anyone who hasnt noticed

[Mario911]

@1986hangman Meek stands up pussy...nothing to do with capitalism smartass. hahahaha

[loppakoura]

@1986hangman this song is too chill for thinking lyrics ;)

[slapbassboy1]

Sounds like a bag of smashed assholes.

[FBMbikes100]

@slapbassboy1 so are you saying you are an expert in the sound of bags of smashed assholes? cause it would seem that you are fagot

[Mr2Nick2]

i think your all to serious mellow out

[spawn2192]

@Mr2Nick2 yes we should all just chill and close our eyes

[HoboHero13]

epitaph records rules

[rmarino4471]

@HoboHero13 not anymore. its full of pussy emo bands now. the only band i listen to on that label is bad religion. brett doesnt care about what kind of bands he signs. he just wants to make money.

[TheSullivanInk]

Look....when I was making out with Fat Mike's sister, Eric said they should give out free instruments at their next show. It was a good idea, but I had to add that they should Never Offer Free Xylophones. They just used the letters, got lazy and did a few lines. "I" named the band! Now, bow before me!!

Morons....just listen to the damn music and take your country back from the BIGGER morons that are fucking it up. Quit arguing over someone Else's crappy band.

[rmarino4471]

@TheSullivanInk so how was fat mikes sister? :/

[TheSullivanInk]

@rmarino4471

She was good....she was good....a little limp but still good. Come to think of it....it may have been Mike in a wig. Hefe hadn't crossed the border yet. Not sure....like I said....lines.

[therealCanablisS]

@TheSullivanInk LOL

[duhduhduhda]

it doesn't matter where the name comes from grow up and stop being stupid

[ggggggggwar]

I can't believe how many of you don't know what your talking about. For those who say they ripped the name off a shitty band in the 80's, THANK YOU. That's how they named their band. Not that even matters, these guys really are the best at what they do and masters of DIY

[jsillervargas]

There was a band called negative fx,

when they broke up, they called their band noFx since there was no more negative fx.

[kip151]

Punk in Drublic still kills

[miadriana420]

No you idiot it doesn't mean anything they stole the name from a terrible band called negative fx go to their website and read their history

[kekenalii]

NO FX stands for

NO faggots, any true nofx fan would know that.

LOL...

who cares what the the fucking names means. LOL. stop argueing about thier fuckign name homos.

[kekenalii]

@kekenalii

youre a faggot kekenalii

[Safetysnaith]

@kekenalii

NOFX stands for "No Fucking Straight Edge". Given the politics of the band, and the scene they come from, I think this is probably more accurate than "No faggots". Read a book.

[TheStickyfingers88]

I can't believe they actually played this song when they came to my town.

[skitzey]

did mike find out who "the real cool guy "was? who done the dub of this track?

[lakai958]

thanks for the shoes mang

[skimbobjim]

Thinkin its about time for the meek to take over already.....we've waited to long----punk rock lives....forever

[headfhox]

past my all 2007 year listening to this :D

[TheGongShows]

@headfhox lol been I have listenning to NOFX since early 90's :P

[rodrigososaartin]

great music

[towliepuffr]

i remember buying this album when i was 15 it's still awesome and at a reasonable price LOL

[crashcocaine]

LOL because this is a pointless conversation :P

[welovehouse1]

who cares what it says great song from an awesome band live long punk rock rock on people

[philaboston]

OK, so NoFX stands for "no special effects". is that true or does it stand for "negative FX"?

[riija666]

@philaboston neither. Negative FX is a different band. And the term for Special Effects is SFX, so no special effects would be NoSFX.

NOFX technically means: No Effects.

But who cares. Its just a name.

[jewcus]

@phil it stands for no fucking straight edge

[alexand0r]

@philaboston No fiction

[karitamonte]

Essa é a musica que mais gosto do NOFX... muito show...

[hedgesofcourse]

I fuckin love noxf but theres a better version of this song, dub edition or summin

[heatherp2003]

blue cheese and banna chips

[collidinme]

@skitzey: "FX" is a common shortcut for "effects". Just like "Xmas" or "U2" are abbreviations. Where is the problem? "No Effects" in terms of "handmade music" is quite al cool name, isn't it?

Anyway... great song, great lyrics.

[akkalakakalakka]

@collidinme They got their name from "Negative FX" in the eighties, not expecting to make it very far. It's not a reference to "effects".

[cyrylk9]

it's said NO F X. you're looking too far into it. just listen to the fucking music and enjoy it.

[Mustach]

No Fucking Straight Edge.

[1biasmind]

Um yeah if u dont like em why come here

[FlickerOfTime]

no fake X..

these guys started as straight edge band. x-)

if u know anything about staight edge u then you know the story of X.

i might be joking.

[mayday992]

mrwaffles79 is right i saw it on some show the other band was like no fx or something

[Zkrudriverz]

anybody know what nofx stands 4??

[skitzey]

it doesnt stand for anything its a rip off of another band called negative fx ...

[cass7206]

Uh.... its clearly says 'no effects'?

[skitzey]

shut the fuck up it doesnt say no effects anywhere. its nofx taken from the band negetive fx and i dont wana hear anythin more about it. i dont care where u seen no effects your wrong and where ever u seen that is wrong.

[cass7206]

The bands name is NoFX...

No .... FX

No effects

How hard is that? What a tool.

[skitzey]

you are an idiot. look it up on the nofx page or something cuz im done arguing with you cuz i know im right. it came from a band negitive fx . end of.

[phreaker92]

LOL . not : no effects . that was a band in england!

nofx just a name. look up wikipedia.

[Beatster81]

@phreaker92 Nofx... = no effects? They play with words all the time.. any real nofx fan would know that... Songs for example... Souldoubt = Sold out.. or so I always thought lol? Olive me... "All of me"... things like that.. there are others too, I'm sure that I can't think of right now... NOFX cmon its common sense.. its in the name when you say it

[phreaker92]

@Beatster81 yes , really :)

[Qualiteit]

@skitzey 'I DONT WANNA HEAR ANYTHING MORE ABOUT IT!!!' baaaaah, boo fucking hoo

[skitzey]

does any 1 know if mike found out who the really cool guy was ? lol any 1 whos cool enough 2 have read the inside of the greatest songs written by us will know what im talking about...

[xarealpersonx]

2:40 XD...I love melvin.

[iriezona]

The factory mass producing fear, bottled,

Capped, distributed near and far

Sold for a reasonable price

And the people, they love it, they feed it

Brush with it, bathe with it, breathe it

Inject it direct to the blood

It seems to be replacing love

[jixxil]

Does anyone know of any other songs that sound like this one?

[satanic0rudeboy]

umm...'kill all the whitemen' but you probably already know yo

[jixxil]

thanks

[lennyjudd123]

no fx- kill all the white man, and as far as other bands go look up mad caddies, they have a bunch of songs like this one.... and the expendables

[Ozzayh]

El Hefe has better voice then Fat Mike in my opinion.But i think that Fat Mikes voice is better for punk.

[Mayfinder]

Yeah, Hefe is deffinetly a better singer, but mike writes great lyrics and is a total bad ass.

[philaboston]

wow, this song sounds so good, fresh. thanks for sharing

[Larka18]

This is fucking genius.

[jimih64]

so fuckin' masterfully crafted.

[OakRidgePunk777]

sometimes you need a ska feel. I love this song. and even if it's not punk, it still has the ideology.

[shitbricks]

honestly i like the dub mix version off 45 or 46 songs that werent good enough to go on their other records better

[JonGoesGreen]

Ska punk =)

[savykevin]

cant believe they didnt put this on the 16 greatest songs!

[1578Beerboy5567]

[yetiporn]

they have been ska punk they arent just punk rock they are realy a mix like they just like to play to the style that they are good at and enjoy doing man + fucking epic band

[Fpuke]

there isn't much punk about there guitar playing. they progressed way beyond that. most of it sounds like thrash to me. whatever. wasting breath discussing art is for fags.
