On 11 November, 2001, after ten years together and over 250,000 album sales worldwide, No Fun At All decided to quit. Since 2004, No Fun At All has performed some reunion gigs. At the reunion show at the Groezrock Festival, No Fun at All announced that they would bring out a new album in the fall of 2008 through their own label Beat 'Em Down Records. On April 19, 2012 the Millencolin Festival announced that No Fun At All canceled their show at the festival due to their disbandment [1]. As of May 2013, however, the band is active again and will be touring Australia in November of that year with Boysetsfire, Off with Their Heads and Jughead's Revenge.
Stranded
No Fun At All Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I don't know where I am
Could use a new horizon
Some kind of plan
Silently I'm awaiting the rescue
Gazing into the waves
I'm stuck here cannot get away
The sun is burning on my skin
I think it's time to pack it in
Can't you see I'm stranded
I'm waiting for directions
To find the easy way
To everlasting happiness
A safe place to stay

Actually never heard of these guys till i saw that they are coming to a local music festival in my city. And I think of myself as kind of a music aficionado, especially in the punk, rock and metal genres. Dunno how i could've missed these guys. I mean they're awesome and they're swedish, as am I. Oh well, better late than never!
