Pop-punk can be great if done correctly. Sometimes, I'm feeling a little too silly to wanna "Rise Above" or have a "Nervous Breakdown." This is why I love this cd. Next to Blink, this is probably the best pop-punk band. I can't explain what sets this apart form the others. For one there is rapping. Honestly, his rap skills aren't that great, but that's easy to overlook. These guys know how to write hooks. "Wasted" is my favorite track. As much as this song celebrates getting drunk and having drunk fun, it's got a rather sad, alcoholic undertone. "Playmate Of The Year" refers to um, a certain magazine that men love. To make a long story short, if you're looking for fun, party cd, this is it.
