 I Hate Saying This
I can't stand it man, I love the Teen Idols, but I just have to say, this ain't as hot as thier first cd, in fact it kinda sucks in a way. First off let me say there is a certain lack of energy on this cd, it just doesn't have the power (the powah!) of sweet energy, it's slower! So much slower than thier last cd! I gotta say, I love the first song, in fact I'd be so bold as to say the first song on this piece is the best Teen Idol's song I'd ever heared, in my life. That you must understand in order to understand this review. Cause I am so well pleased with the first song, the rest of the songs are slower and Heather doesn't sing as much... buzz kill!
 this cd rocks
I just happened across the Teen Idols recently when browsing through the punk section of a local music store. Their name & the images on their cd covers captured my interest, so decided to sample them here on amazon....next day I went out & bought a couple of their cd's. WOW all I can say is that I'm just blown away. This is one of the best cd's I've heard, punk or otherwise. They have some 80's style punk/new wave hooks in a lot of their songs, yet the songs are so fast that they have that 90's punk feel also. Now I'm looking forward to finding out all I can about this band, and I can't wait until they do another cd! (Teen Idols, if you're listening, please come play in my town!)
 This CD Rocks!!
By far their best effort from track 1, the extremely catchy "Midnight Picture Show" to the sing along chorus of track 14, "The Team," this CD will not disappoint any fan of fast, catchy Ramones and oldies influenced pop punk. I was not a fan of "Pucker-up" I actually thought that CD was the beginning of the end for this band, but it proved to be a simple case of "Sophmore Slump," which seems to affect about 70 percent of all musicians/bands. However this Cd is probably one of the best releases of 2000 of any genre!! Buy it now!!
catchy but not addicting
when i got pucker up, i really really liked it and repeatedly continued to listen to this and i still do. but this one just lacks something musically and lyrically that i can't really put my finger on. it's, like, less in your face. i guess you could put it that way, but it's still decent and recommended for any teen idols fan.
Whoa, what happened?
I've been a Teen Idols fan since their s/t debut on Honest Don's (Fat Mike from NOFX's "other" label) and have enjoyed their greaser, Social D. meets The Ramones style pop-punk, but I was surprised at the polish on this release.To put it mildly, they have almost completely sanded away all of the rough edges, leaving the remains of what sounds like a punk doo-wop group. Remember the fast, abrasive songs they used to do? Well, the key word there was "remember," as they are completely absent from this release. And the interesting thing is, it really doesn't matter. The Teen Idols strengths have always been their knack for writing catchy little tunes, regardless of what manner they play them in. The songs here are as good as or better than the old faves from the last 2 records. Color me impressed.
