Impressive album. Kiss Off is the best here. And the reason why I haven't posted until now is because I wanted my 627th post to be on the 627th AOTD.

If you're a teenage boy, and you're saying this album doesn't tell the story of your life, you're an absolute liar.

Heck, I'm an abstinent homeschooler that voted for Rick Santorum, and when I hear the lyrics in "Add it UP", I think to myself, "Dang! This guy read my mind!"

Yeah. In the Illinois Primary, at least. By that Point, all the other good conservatives were out. So I was sorta stuck.

But this isn't about Politics. This is about the 69th greatest album of all time.

Sonically, this is basically a mix of The Velvet Underground and Nico and Ani Difranco.

As Applerill and Hayden alluded to, this is the ultimate teenage male album. It's a rite of passage really. At the time this came out, there was nothing like this. Think about how revolutionary it was at the time: Acoustic punk? Nobody had done it yet, and nobody has really done it as well since. Great album.
