1) Amazon.com
Inevitably labeled "pop punk," Simple Plan's sophomore album finds the Montreal quintet settling in as a straight-ahead rock band. Yes, lyrically, their concerns remain grounded in the adolescent petulance and alienation of classic punk. They're "the ones you love to hate." "You don't know what it's like to be me," they insist. "We're the kids that you pushed away," they huff. Musically, however, the follow-up to 2002's popular No Pads, No Helmets…Just Balls finds the band moving toward a strain of radio-friendly rock that owes less and less to the punk canon. Opener (and album highlight) "Shut Up!" "Me Against the World," and "Perfect World" boast sweeping choruses and Pierre Bouvier's spit-in-your-eye vocals. But strings creep into "Welcome to My Life" and the closer, "Untitled," is a heart-on-his-sleeve piano lament that owes more to Night Ranger than the Ramones. This one will appeal to fans who prefer the "pop" side of the "pop punk" equation. --Steven Stolder2) Album Description

Average Customer Rating: 4.0 out of 5
1) Great Band and Album [Rating: 5 out of 5]
I would have to seriously disagree with all the people who wrote bad comments about the band. Simple Plan sings song about how you're all kicked and pushed around. Some of you other reviewers don't even know what it's like to experience things like this, so you really shouldn't say anything bad about it. It's a really encouraging album that tells kids to rise up. Songs like "Shut Up!" really tells you what to do when someone always bothers you and stuff.2) The Tradesman battle away [Rating: 2 out of 5]
Simple Plan are rock's true tradesman. Very little talent but through sheer hard work they have become a renowned band. All the people who flame them have to understand these guys are just trying to carve a career like you or me and guess what? they are suceeding. The fact that I'd rather eat glass than listen to it is not the point, because of their approach they will constantly improve as musicians and songwriters. For now though appreciate this album for what it is a fun album by young, uncomprising males who refused to give ground and are now reaping the benefits. Another thing I don't recommend this long Player to those who look for virtuoso singing, you are better of elsewhere. Thanks for your time.3) I'm sorry I'm such a whiney brat!!! [Rating: 1 out of 5]
All Simple Plan does is complain. I mean think about there biggest hits. "Im sorry I can't be perfect" I mean come on. I honestly can't stand Simple Plan, so I can't say whether this is one of their best or not, but its awful either way. Don't buy this no matter what, unless you want to be depressed and annoyed by the lead singers whine.4) Zero Stars [Rating: 1 out of 5]
College Metalfreak Haha. Simple Plan sucks. Good lord, how can a band suck as much as this one. Seriously, how can anybody listen to this crap. It's not music by the way, it's just a bunch of whiny girls in their twenties wishin' they were men. All the songs on this album flat out suck. I hope this band is through. The lead singer Pierre, what a stupid name, is such a loser. I have never heard a more annoying voice in my life. It's like finger nails on a chalkboard. It sounds like all the members are porn-addicted masturbators. Btw, if you're a guy (I am) and you do this, you're a loser, plain and simple. Also, Eliza Dushku is such a gorgeous woman. I thought it was so awesome in the video to the horrific "I'm Just a Kid" (only seen it once) when she dumped these wimps, including that stupid, loser bandgeek boy, at the end. It's reassuring to know that a beautiful, intelligent, and strong woman like her won't fall for immature, pathetic babies like them.5) Alright album [Rating: 4 out of 5]
The songs are very cool and exciting when you firs hear them, and listen to it a few times. Then it gets soo old, you want to throw it away, instead of selling it to someone. The songs are very overplayed. Even my personal favorite, Welcome To My Life seems to be very overplayed. I think they're a good band, just, songs need to be a bit more likable. I'm going to base these songs' ratings on when I first heard them. 1. Shut Up! (9.5/10) Pretty repetitive. It's upbeat, and a good song to dance and sing along to. 2. Welcome To My Life (10/10) Again, my favorite on the album. Catchy, and a good song to sing along with. Overplayed, like all the songs. 3. Perfect World (8/10) An Ok slower song, and I'll stress it again. Overplayed. 4. Thank You (6/10) Not really that good. Not really very likable, fast and boring. 5. Me Against The World (9/10) Catchy, exciting, headbobbing, on the darker side. EXTREMELY overplayed though. 6. Crazy (10/10) One of the better songs. It's good to reflect on. It may be my favorite song as well. 7. Jump (10/10) Also a good song. It's not really that overplayed. It's very jumpy and thrilling. I like it. 8. Everytime (10/10) Here's a good soft song. Loved it, and this could be my favorite song. 9. Promise (9/10) It's very catchy, and fun to sing. Overplayed as well. 10. One (8/10) Kinda boring, but you get used to it. Good lyrics. 11. Untitled (10/10) And to end with the softest song. It's very very soft, and pretty overplayed, wayy too much. Good song to reflect on memories and corny stuff like that, but just...nah. And overall my rating would be 71/100. Poor, I thought it was better than their debut though. Their debut was pretty dull, and boring.
