"To me its a very ok album. Never gets me fully engaged and nothing that I dislike. Never think it will be one of my favourites, but will give it a few more listens, but others will grab my attention more." Reply
"There are many constants in life. Things that don’t change. The sun will always rise, the birds will always sing and The Offspring will always sound the same. This album is no different than any Offspring album that’s been released in the past 20 years and I guess in a way, that’s a good thing. I..." [+] Reply

"I totally agree with alexgane, except for the best songs..... I love 'curse the night', and 'you hit me' also. Bottom line is this band (2 members), is very good. They have many other albums just as good... Highly underrated on this site." Reply

"First class album. Very frustrating to see a rating of just 5%. I mean come on...obviously you haven't listened to the album or simply detest this genre; either way posting scores like that give an artificially low overall rating for those of us who do enjoy it." Reply

"It's a great album, and it's one of my favorite darker themed albums. Maybe I'd put it on my greatest albums list IF IT WASN'T SO DAMN SHORT" Reply
"Best Pop Album of 2012." Reply
"This album starts off with sleigh bells' version of a 80s hair metal crowd warmer before opening up into a typical sleigh bells riff and beat.
