Published on July 4th 2001

I guess all I can say is that Chixdiggit! [don't forget the exclamation point, kids] is a pop-punk band. No, no, they're a POPPY pop-punk band. In fact, they're probably the poppiest pop-punk band that has popped up in recent years, and they're from Canada, to boot! They plow through 11 songs on their newest CD with only two topping three minutes and five songs under two. Their music is pretty straightforward with no discernable surprises, and the singer's vocals are a nice touch to this band. He really helps separate them from the pack with his more high-pitched, half-whiny [in a good way] vocals. It's also on Honest Don's, so you know it's produced really really well. And for all you technologically advanced people, you can pop this into your CD-ROM and get all sorts of multimedia goodies. If you're a fan of Chixdiggit!, I don't need to tell you to pick this up. If you're not, but you enjoy really really good pop-punk, then there isn't much of a better place to start than at this album.

    My Score:

    This CD is amazing. Not quite as energetic as "Born on the First of July" but just as catchy. They're one of the most fun bands you'll find. It just makes you feel good to listen to. Everything about this band is great. Get this CD.

    And 3 stars is a little low for the content of the review...
