Pump Up the Valuum

Pump Up the Valuum is the eighth studio album by the American punk rock band NOFX.

As a prank, the intro sounds very similar to "Linoleum" from the band's 1994 album Punk in Drublic, right down to El Hefe warming up his voice[4] before the song begins, while the solo bass part echoes Shadows of Defeat from Good Riddance.

The words which are spoken during this intro ("This is not a test of the emergency broadcast system") also appear in the Bad Religion song "Los Angeles Is Burning", on their 2004 album "The Empire Strikes First".

Other outtakes include "Pods and Gods", "Lower", "Bath of Least Resistance", "San Francisco Fat", and "Pump Up the Valium".
