I've been a fan of Lagwagon for some time now and when I saw that people were reviewing other Lagwagon albums I felt like I had to review a Lagwagon album too before there weren't any left to review. The album starts off with "After you my friend" which is an instant classic and by far the best track on the album. The thing I've always admired Lagwagon for is the way they can mix a superfast song with lyrics and harmonies that make it sound... beautiful (?) (I know that sounded kinda wierd but that's how I see it) The album changes between fast and mid-tempo songs. Every song here is great and the album is very melodic. The album is very different than Trashed and Duh. It's softer but I would still say that it's just as good. I just really want Derrick back because he's a better drummer!!! One bad thing about this album is that it runs a little short at only 25:27 min. but since all the songs rule I'm able to forgive them. One final thing. I want to ask You (yes YOU) if that story about the concert in Brazil is true? I guess it could have been because they had some fight or something. I mean they've always had a rep as a band that has a lot of fights. I dunno. Oh, buy this album. You won't be sorry. Please login or register to post comments.

This is one of my favorite band (with offspring before rage and grace etc...dick) and i can say this album is a good piece of work. For those who just knew may 16th, there's like an ''intro song'' just before (acoustic song) called ''the kids are all wrong'' which is really good good album! The first Lagwagon album I bought, and still my favourite. May 16th is possibly my favourite song of theirs. Probably the best melodic punk album I have ever heard. Your blog was great! The time spent reading it was well spent! There should be more people like you that write interesting blogs! You’ve done a great job so I tell you to keep by far their worst record. dont ever think about buying it I recomend you One of my favorite albums of all time. I only wish it didnt have bad cover art. Oh, well. One of Lagwagon's best. Fabulous album! Lagwagon are my 3rd fav band behind The Wildhearts and Strung Out. yes lagwagon deserve full marks and the cd is awesome. BUT man its too short. i WANT more..please. lagwagon demands full scores everytime - bigjerk This is my very first Lagwagon cd, and since then I have gotten the entire collection with them rapidly becoming one of my favorite bands, and this cd is the greatest of the collection. I can't wait to see these guys live. This album poops on every other Lagwagon album...although the others are still great. They must be like a fine wine... Have you ever heard the advanced promo copy of this album? Originally this album was meant to be some kind of concept album. For some reason the major part of that story (about a guy named Ricky) that was inbetween the songs has been left off the album. I once asked Joey about this, but I can´t remember what his answer was... "I must have been a mistake." Haha. Hey it's me The Backfuckboy |
