Where this album fits

Career context
In 2001, NOFX was riding the wave of their established reputation in the punk scene after the success of their album 'Pump Up the Valuum' (1996). 'Surfer' is an EP release that showcases their signature irreverence while further solidifying their position as a leading force in the skate punk genre. This release comes shortly before they would begin to explore more political themes in later works.
