About this Release
With such a clear tribute to NOFX, Thanx 4 All The Shoes do a superb service to their namesakes. Yet, T4ATS are no tribute act and Celebrating Falsity is certainly not a carbon-copy of their influencers work but a modern retake on the late 90s hardcore and punk scenes.
Fast and furious throughout with eleven songs clocking in at 34 minutes, this is an out and out declaration of
punk in our own turbulent times. Punching together political rhetoric on “Face The Facts” and “Home Is Where The Bombs Rain”, with a personal struggle to the record on “My Devil Is My Dad”, Celebrating Falsity is
T4ATS reaction to our world and their place in it.
Yet this is anything but a downbeat record. It may certainly seem heavy in theme but that is reflected so power-fully in the brutality of the guitars and scratching vocals that more depth is brought out on each and every listen. Pummelling riffs and that edge onto thrash set T4AS up there with the likes of Good Riddance and Propaghandi.
