Coaster (released on vinyl as Frisbee[2]) is the eleventh studio album by the American punk rock band NOFX. It was released on April 28, 2009 through Fat Wreck Chords.

Writing and production

The band went on east coast US tour in October 2008[3] with support from Dillinger Four.[4] Following this, writing and recording sessions for Coaster took place from November 2008[5] to February 2009.[2] The band worked with Bill Stevenson, who produced Wolves in Wolves' Clothing (2006) and Self Entitled (2012).

Release

On February 24, 2009, Coaster was announced for release in April.[6] On March 3, the album's track listing was revealed.[7] On March 28, "The Quitter" was released for free download.[8] Coaster was made available for streaming on April 23,[9] before being released on April 28 through Fat Wreck Chords.[6] The album was the first new Fat Wreck Chords release priced under $10 in the US under the label's new promise that all CDs from the label would cost under $10, with many priced less than $8.[10] Regarding the label's new pricing model, NOFX lead singer and Fat Wreck Chords owner Fat Mike stated the following:

{{cquote|This is not a sale. This is how much this CD costs.... We make less profit, but bands hopefully will sell more CDs to more people, which is why we started doing this in the first place.}}

Some of those who preordered the album through the Fat Wreck Chords website also received a limited edition, hand-numbered CD with two bonus tracks. The album was simultaneously released on vinyl under the title Frisbee with alternative artwork.[2] As with the CD release, vinyl preorders came with a bonus 7-inch single with the same two bonus tracks. The vinyl release also came with a free MP3 download of the album. The vinyl release features an alternative intro to the opening track "We Called it America". The song "Creeping Out Sara" is about meeting Sara Quin of indie band Tegan and Sara. The vinyl edition of the album has an alternate version called 'Creeping Out Tegan' which has alternate lyrics and is about a meeting with Sara's identical twin sister and bandmate Tegan Quin. The vinyl release also features an alternate trumpet solo and organ intro on the track 'Best God in Show.'

Between late June and late August 2009, the band performed on the Warped Tour.[11] In September and October, the band went on a tour of Australia with Bad Religion.[12] A few songs not included on the album that were written and recorded during the Coaster sessions were released on the Cokie the Clown EP in November. In April 2011, the band appeared at Groezrock.[13]

Artwork

The covers of both Coaster and Frisbee are in a style reminiscent of graphic design from the 1970s. The lyric booklet included with Coaster also includes photos of the band members from that time period.

The cover art of Coaster shows a compact disc being used as an alcoholic drink coaster with the disc art side facing down (data side facing up). The rear cover shows various older NOFX albums also being used as coasters with the disc art facing up. The disc art itself declares "Absorbing Alcohol Since 1983" (the year the band formed).

The alternate Frisbee artwork depicts guitarist Eric Melvin throwing a vinyl record as he would a frisbee. The rear cover shows a dog in mid air prepairing to catch the vinyl frisbee record.
