Definitely worth buying!!!!
Well, who cares whether they're punk or not as long as they make good music (and i happen to think they do)? Another thing, who decides what being "punk" entails, exactly? Who defines that??

You also say that they always write about love and breakups and that they should get new problems. Everyone on here keeps going on about how simple plan's not "punk" and what posers they are. Name any band you consider good, and i bet they've written about love and breakups. And since you all are apparently dead set against "posers" don't you think it's a little ridiculous to try to say that they should get new problems? If those are the problems they have and know about, then that's what they should write about. I don't know what could be more poser-y than writing about problems they don't have.

Simple plan is a great band. They write about things all teens can relate to. I love both of their albums and I think everyone who likes rock should try them out. I'm sorry for sounding like such a whiner but some of those reviews made me mad. SP rocks.


review
Great mix of deep songs and upbeat songs that make you just wanna jump around. Don't knock Simple Plan's first album, but this one is way better. Definitely worth buying.


THIS IS NOT ROCK!!!
BORING!!! Listen to a band with awesome lyrics. This is some crappy pop music! Simple Plan are emos from Montreal that really can't write songs! All they whine about is how crappy their lives are and breaking up with their girlfriends. . . like Type O Negative or My Dying Bride!.


Ignoring the ignorant rants coming from the VOID of stupidity
My friend let me borrow the CD, and I listened to it. I am tired of hearing bad reviews from people who have never listened to the band and automatically assume that they are posers. IT WAS HALF-DECENT.

Okay, so these guys are definitely not punk rock to start with. They use power chords that are slurred most of the time, a bit more intricate for the pop-punk genre than the occassional repetitive rhythm guitar strumming the same exact string for three straight minutes. The drums are a mess though, they sound like a two-year old beating on pots and pans. The bass was actually not as bad as I expected it to be, it was audible. The lyrics were typical teen-pop angst driven, you get the picture--no creativity besides the rhyming. I just didn't like how all of the tracks sounded nearly the same, I guess that's just how pop-punk is getting to sound these days.
Key Tracks:
Shut Up
Jump
Crazy (the guitar intro was a takeoff of Smashing Pumpkins' "Today")

I would reccomend this CD to to intended audience, ten year olds. It's not HORRID, but it's certainly not great.


completly awesome
Simple Plan has definitly changed their music style from No Pads, No Helmets,. . Just Balls. it's much more deeper, the songs are heavier and i would have to say have a bit more meaning then their old catchy jumpy songs. they sitll have a few fast song on their alblum that you can jump around to such as the song Thank You,Jump, and Promise. i rate this a 5 because i think Simple Plan write GREAT songs and this alblum was just sucha HUGE transistion from their last alblum but this one is soooooo AWESOME! This is one of those alblums that you can listen to forever and it will have the same affect on you everytime you listen to it.
