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 Stolder

Everyone on here keeps going on about how simple plan's not "punk" and what posers they are. Well, who cares whether they're punk or not as long as they make good music (and i happen to think they do)? Another thing, who decides what being "punk" entails, exactly? Who defines that??
You also say that they always write about love and breakups and that they should get new problems. Name any band you consider good, and i bet they've written about love and breakups. And since you all are apparently dead set against "posers" don't you think it's a little ridiculous to try to say that they should get new problems? If those are the problems they have and know about, then that's what they should write about. I don't know what could be more poser-y than writing about problems they don't have.
Simple plan is a great band. They write about things all teens can relate to. I love both of their albums and I think everyone who likes rock should try them out. I'm sorry for sounding like such a whiner but some of those reviews made me mad. SP rocks.

Don't knock Simple Plan's first album, but this one is way better. Great mix of deep songs and upbeat songs that make you just wanna jump around. Definitely worth buying

This is some crappy pop music! Simple Plan are emos from Montreal that really can't write songs! All they whine about is how crappy their lives are and breaking up with their girlfriends. BORING!!! Listen to a band with awesome lyrics... like Type O Negative or My Dying Bride!

I am tired of hearing bad reviews from people who have never listened to the band and automatically assume that they are posers. My friend let me borrow the CD, and I listened to it. IT WAS HALF-DECENT.
Okay, so these guys are definitely not punk rock to start with. They use power chords that are slurred most of the time, a bit more intricate for the pop-punk genre than the occassional repetitive rhythm guitar strumming the same exact string for three straight minutes. The drums are a mess though, they sound like a two-year old beating on pots and pans. The bass was actually not as bad as I expected it to be, it was audible. The lyrics were typical teen-pop angst driven, you get the picture--no creativity besides the rhyming. I just didn't like how all of the tracks sounded nearly the same, I guess that's just how pop-punk is getting to sound these days.
Key Tracks:
Shut Up
Jump
Crazy (the guitar intro was a takeoff of Smashing Pumpkins' "Today")
I would reccomend this CD to to intended audience, ten year olds. It's not HORRID, but it's certainly not great.
completly awesome February 21, 2006
Simple Plan has definitly changed their music style from No Pads, No Helmets,...Just Balls. it's much more deeper, the songs are heavier and i would have to say have a bit more meaning then their old catchy jumpy songs. they sitll have a few fast song on their alblum that you can jump around to such as the song Thank You,Jump, and Promise. i rate this a 5 because i think Simple Plan write GREAT songs and this alblum was just sucha HUGE transistion from their last alblum but this one is soooooo AWESOME! This is one of those alblums that you can listen to forever and it will have the same affect on you everytime you listen to it.
