Advantages: A couple of tracks are quite enjoyable. Disadvantages: The album on the whole is really rather disappointing.
...band Less Than Jake and in truth is not one that I hold in particularly high regard at all. That said, it is by no means a bad album, it's just not a great one.
The album is really rather lacklustre and none of the tracks present are particularly exciting at all. The first single lifted from this album was 'Everything Is Overrated' for example which in itself is a really average track. The sad thing is that it is probably one of the highlights ...

Advantages: Cheerful, catchy, clear non-stupid lyrics. Disadvantages: Most tracks are not ska in the slightest.
