My Score:

I don't like how the reviewer treats TBR's declaration “We’re gonna go down in history as the world’s greatest rock and roll band" like they are being serious.

My Score:

Love this album, they're best for sure. Skate or Die and Bigger than Kiss are the best songs they've ever written. So much fun. ' Detroit Couldn't rock itself out of a paper bag ' my favorite lyric ever haha

I put on Total today and I was truly impressed by how far this band has come with their song writing, especially Ray, while still maintaining their sound. I still love Total and Warning Device, but this album just confirms how truly awesome this band is.

after listening to this about 10 times over the past week, i can confidently say this is my second favorite punk album of the year (first would be the new NOFX)

This is the first album of theirs I've enjoyed, despite everyone around me being fans for years. This just feels like the first one with the variation and complexity that their amazing technical talent should be exhibiting. Congratulations, TB, you've finally won me over.

Finally listened to this at work today... pretty solid, probably my favorite thing they've done.

My Score:

same formula as "warning device" and that is a good thing. they stuck to what they know best and made it better. tighter. catchier. more slick. everything that made "warning device" a fun record but stepped up. a fantastic followup and great FAT debut.

yeah!

Agreed at post below. And I'm a huge KISS fan.

Agreed. Another great album. I think "Bigger Than Kiss" is my new favorite Bottlerocket song.

My Score:

So so so so so so good.

Favorite so far:
Fatso Goes Nutzoid
Insecure about the size of my body
Don't want to be on top of anybody
In second grade the kids all started to tease me
Mom and Dad were mad that I wasn't that happy
I will never look like you
It doesn't matter what I do
I see those people on TV
They never seem to look like me
Insecure about the size of my body
Don't want to be on top of anybody
I never seem to feel that pretty
The kids say fat and they're never kidding
I lie and say it doesn't bother me at all
I will never look like you
It doesn't matter what I do
I swallow pills and I try to run
To tell the truth its not that fun
Insecure

I think this is their best album so far.

not feeling the review, but this album is a real suprise, riffing and more than just 1-2-3-4 beats? they really branched out on this one.

Man this is a fun LP to get drunk to.

i love this record. definitely their best album to date. total was always a favorite of mine. warning device was awesome, but i felt it was missing something. this album is just perfect pop punk. definitely at least in my top 3 albums of the year.

still waiting on my colored vinyl/ t-shirt pack that i pre-ordered, dammit!

I've been listening to "Todayo" nonstop, probably my fave song of theirs now.

Great record. Think the review is too short when talking about the actual record but I suppose I should have submitted my own shunt I?

Posted by onegirlarmy on 2009-09-20 02:45:10
My Score:

Give it a one through listen and don't care for it. Didn't care that much for Warning Device either.

Total is still their best IMO and they haven't been able to top it since.

Love this album.

Waiting for this to come in the mail.

Skate or Die is OK, but really, Nerf Herder is better than this band, and I can't fucking stand them either.

i preordered this. i didn't think id get it on tuesday, but i kind of expected it by today (sat.) bummed

I'm thirding or whatever the whole "fun" thing. Fucking great record for what it is.

Another totally bitchin' record. Warning Device was my favorite by them but I might like this better.

Posted by Brendan27 on 2009-09-19 20:25:14
My Score:

Easily their best album to date, they finally have their "own" sound.

Why is Forbidden Planet not mentioned in the review??? The chorus is some serious pop in that song,

I think what does it for me with this album is the hint of Lillingtons present throughout it.

My Score:

I'm going to have one hell of a time picking a best album of the year when the year's over. Propagandhi are tough to beat, but this one kills, and American Steel were fucking awesome...Cobra Skulls were pretty solid, and...fuck it. Anyway, "Bigger Than KISS," "Do What?", "Skate or Die," and "Fatso Goes Nutzoid" are my favorites at this point. Fuckin' great album.

Posted by telegraphrocks on 2009-09-19 19:42:07

I've gotten so many awesome albums in the last two weeks, that I haven't even had the time or desire to check this one out yet.

Score's for eating pizza, then get laid 10 minutes later.

Fatso Goes Nutzoid was definitely inspired by Endless Vacation.

very good album,. IMO their best.. even though Bigger Than KISS is by far the worst song theyve ever written

warning device > total

havent heard this yet but dont love skate or die

This record is awesome.

"Detroit!..... Couldn't rock itself out of a paper baaag!"

I enjoy this release far more than Warning Device, solid stuff.

Plus I'll also say that it definitely got me back into TBR after going through quite a few months of not really caring to listen any of their stuff.

It's a circular narrative in many ways where it kind of sums up the human race in a time capsule.
