"This is my fav album of MCR (compared to three cheers, and the black parade. I didn't check the last album). I think the latter two have a more professional approach and are definetly more produced and polished into detail, which is appreciated. But the roughness and honesty of this album just do..."

"The beach boys debut album is an enjoyable one, harmless fun really. It's incredibly charming, yet naive, but you have to remember how young they were when they made it. It's all throwaway material but it's fun. The title track is easily the best song on the album. Surfin' is good too. So this is..." [+] Reply

"Another fantastic album following 'Sin after Sin'. Starting to move into slightly heavier songwriting. Majority of tracks on this are top grade hard rock/metal.

"Opinions differ on this album and it is discussed controversial. Some love it and some hate it. I'm one of those who love it. Rather LoFi, maybe even demo-like, as chart and mainstream suitable. I like the sound and I love the feelings which are transmitted. I like it very much." Reply
"I really enjoyed the movie with Elvis in a cool hot-rod,but the music isn't always top notch." Reply
