I am an old Pennywise fan this is by far the gretaest of all Pennywise albums, defining their sound ever since. Pennywise invented crunching palm-muted speed-driven guitar with this album. Peaceful Day, Perfect people, Same old story, killing time or all unbelievable anthems and thats not detracting from the rest of the album. The first recorded version of Bro Hymn is also laid in as a secret track.

This is an excellent CD. The songs are all varied and they'll get you singing along in no time. It starts off very well with a string of good songs but starts to peter out at the end. However I would still recommend this CD to anyone who likes fast energetic song with catchy tunes and a good beat. Classic Pennywise at thier best. My favoutite songs on this album are "Peaceful Day" "Perfect People" and "Every single Day". 2 of these I found so good I had to cover them in my band. All my friends that have hears this CD says it's one of their best. GO buy it!!

THE MOST ENTHRALLING PUNK ROCK ALBUM I'VE EVER HEARD
3 Mar 1999
Format:Audio CD
On their fourth release on Epitaph Records, Pennywise cut the bulls**t and get straight to the issues of real life, but still manage to push a positive message. Words simply can't describe the awesome power of their music, the fury, the message, yet at the same melodic and very competent. This is many steps above the NOFX's and Green Days of the genre, this is music that will really make you stop and think. The album kicks off in grand fashion with "Peaceful Day", a stirring statement about the daily struggles we face at home, at work, as well as internally. The second track "Waste Of Time", is a two minute punk epic that takes some very hearty, insightful, and biased mind you, looks at organized religion. Track four, "Every Single Day" is a statement about getting on with it, and enduring when life gets you down. The lyrics, "I will make mistakes that everyone makes until I find my way/then start over and live every single day. Track five, "Searching" really strikes a chord with anyone who has ever tried to sort their life out, with the chorus "Tonight I will rage against the forces of fate/the tide is turning my way/you should know better than to mess with me. "Same Old Story" is truly the stand out track on the album, which deals with the struggle for a young man to define himself on his own terms, and not his fathers expectations. From start to finish, Pennywise's "About Time" delivers the lyrics, the message, and the edge not found in most contemporary artists today like the Matchbox 20 and Sugar Ray. Its "ABOUT TIME" listeners opened their eyes to the band called Pennywise...

Excellent for Punk and Non-punk listening
22 Oct 1999
Format:Audio CD
For those of you who don't mind punk but never really got into it, this album is for you. Pennywise is good music that everyone who likes fast, hard, well written, lyrics will like whether you are a fan of punk, classic rock, or hardcore. "Peaceful Day" and "Searching" are the two best songs on "About Time." If you haven't heard this band before the first one you should buy is "About Time." It is good to pump you up into a positive mood. If you can see them live!

The best pennywise cd period.
23 Aug 2003
Format:Audio CD
I own all the pennywise cd's and this one is deffintly the best one by far. Songs like " peaceful day, perfect people, waste of time, same old story, searching, freebase, try, it's what you dp with it and every single time" are songs that made pennywise famous. deffintly pick this one if you're getting into punk or are into music generally.
