Great CD.
This one is more pop-punk than artistic but its still a great CD for modern rock fans. I understand this getting bad reviews from those who like their pop-rock work.

1. 4/5 Hundred Million: A little too heavy for me but the prechorus is nice.
2. 3/5 What You Want: Lyrical rhythm is nice but not the guitar.
3. 4/5 Can't Wake Up: Nice intro the verses are nice.
4. 6/5 The First Time: My all time fave TC song! it's Sloan-Weezerish.
5. 4/5 Ideal Waste Of Time: One of the most singalongable tracks here.
6. 2/5 Hole In Your Head: Rock song you need to get used to.
7. 5/5 Don't Believe It All: A solid mellow power ballad sounding indier than the rest.
8. 2/5 Over My Head: Not catchy to me, the guitar is annoying.
9. 4/5 Tired Of It Anyway: Catchy singalongable verses but the chorus isn't impressive.
10. 3/5 The Downward Dance: Okay, on the disco side, but at least you can dance to it.
11. 2/5 Drive: I dont see whats good about the instrumentation. It's not typical TC melodies.


In defense of one of my favorites...
Like the other 10 Americans who've actually heard Treble Charger,the first time I heard them was "Brand New Low" in NHL 2002, and I instantly became a fan. I've never reviewed anything online in my entire life, but I really feel I have to defend this incredible cd. I was so relieved that when I finally got my hands on a copy of "Wide Awake Bored" that most of the songs were pretty good. After "Detox" came out, a friend of mine ordered me one as a birthday gift. I was blown away! 3 years later I still listen to it all the time. It is such a complete and cohesive album.
People's opinions on music are subjective, but I can say everyone who has listened to my Treble Charger cd's has enjoyed them. The guys in TC manage to write songs that are both arogant and catchy, and I believe that's a fantastic combination.
As for what was said in other reviews here, I really wouldn't trust the opinions of someone who'd throw hockey sticks at a band. So, you can discount those idiots all together. .


Sorry, but this CD stank
5 stars, but I can't really do . My rating is actually 2. 5. Anyways, I really don't want to say this but this album was just plain bad. I heard the songs "Hundred Million" and "American Psycho" and decided to buy it even though "American Psycho" wasn't on it. The only good songs are probably "Ideal Waste of Time", "Don't Believe it All" and "Hundred Million. " Other than that this CD stank. Sorry to be so blunt but it did. The first time I listened to it it was alright but after a few times it just got so boring. Their's no point in buying this CD for just a few songs so I don't suggest.


Not
This album is not bad, only the last song sucks beacause it is very drawn out. I've been a fan of Treble Charger since hearing Brand New Low on NHL 2002. Youll enjoy it many times through and its great to see how this band has evolved (they have become more popish) but i must say these new songs are still pretty good. If you like Sum 41 and Gob this is a good band to hear.


Canada apologizes
Treble Charger is perhaps the worst band Canada has ever produced (yes, worse than Sugar Jones). I, on behalf of all Canadian, apologize to any American who had to listen to this nonsense. Many in Canada openly their show their hatred of this "band" through pysical violence (at the Juno's - are Grammy's - the band was attacked with hockey sticks). This band sucks, save your money! Listen to a much much better Canadian band - SUM 41!!!!!!.
