AMERICAN punk rock band NOFX are returning to the UK next year and have a date pencilled in at Cardiff University Great Hall in May.

Formed in Los Angeles back in 1983, NOFX have sold six million records worldwide during their career, an unprecedented feat for an independent band.

Although they’re reluctant to admit it, among their musical influences are bands like Bad Religion, Misfits and RKL.

NOFX play in Cardiff on Friday, May 1.

Tickets cost £18.50 and are available now online at www.gigsandtours.com or from the 24-hour credit card hotline 0871 2200 260.
