Product Description

CD Description

Serving as an answer to the plethora of American-born, third- and fourth-generation pop-punk bands that include Fenix TX and Riddlin' Kids comes Simple Plan, a Montreal-based quintet who packed their debut with plenty of anthems steeped inadolescent angst trimmed with plenty of shout-along-choruses, sweet harmonies, and unadulterated hooks. The album titlehints at the band's penchant for toilet humor so it comes as no surprise that Blink 182's Mark Hoppus and Good Charlotte's Joel Madden both put in cameos on the yearning "I'd Do Anything" and the defiant "You Don't Mean Anything" respectively. When you get past the AMERICAN PIE-like comedic sensibilities, Simple Plan slips in a few more serious nuggets likean open letter to a combative father ("Perfect") and an infectious ode to self-loathing ("God Must Hate Me"). Of course, these Canucks with catchy songs steep most of their best material in the trenches of unrequited amour ranging from thedouble-entendre-littered "Addicted" and chugging love letter "My Alien" to "I Won't Be There", a peppy song that chronicles the end of a relationship. Simple Plan proves American teens don't have the market cornered on angst and emotional upheaval.

5.0 out of 5 stars A great pop-punk album, 3 Jan 2004
By L. Cooney (York, UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)      
Let's put it like this...if Avril Lavigne had five older brothers and they chose to cut a debut album, it would probably sound a lot like this. If you love the likes of Good Charlotte, All-American Rejects, Blink 182 and Sum 41, I advise you to get this CD. The band have a knack for providing songs to jump around the room to and shout along with, accompanying lyrics that bounce from the slightly melancholy to the downright weird - check out My Alien - with pounding pop-punk backing tracks that will get stuck in your head for days. The only problems with this CD were the track 'Perfect' (being a ballad it just seems a bit too separate and stand-out from the rest of the songs) and the fact that I couldn't get the enhanced content. Simple Plan are dark horses in the new race for the pop-punk crown, but they're definitely ones to watch.

5.0 out of 5 stars Simple Plan Rock!!!, 18 April 2005
By A Customer
This album is really great! It has great vocals, drums, guitar, lyrics etc. All the songs are really good, my favourite is Grow Up - Its is really good and its true to every teenager/tweenager, all of us love spending hours on the phone and not paying bills and other boring stuff that gorwn ups do (i hope) and I am nearly sure everyone of us has been told at least once to grow up! am i right? ? ?
Anyway i really advise you to get the album it the closest thing to perfect i've ever heard! gotta go Bye!! P.S. enjoy ... if u buy(of course)!

4.0 out of 5 stars Not 'Perfect', 12 Mar 2004
By Ms. C. A. L. Turner (Kent, England) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I bought this cd cos "I'd Do Anything" and "Addicted" kept playing in my head and it was driving me nuts. Catchy songs. "My Alien" is weird in a good way, and tracks like "Perfect" are quite painful. I don't like that a 24-year-old is singing that he's "Just A Kid" though.
Over-all, a good pick-me-up album with a punk-pop vibe that'll get you moving
