One man's heaven is another man's hell, and in America, those who would rather not eat apple pie seem to spend their post-teen days rocking out to humorous songs about how much life sucks. Hence the success of Green Day, Blink 182, and Less Than Jake. Dum Dums are of a similar mind as those Yank punks. But while "The Kind of Day I've Had," "Everything," "Caught Me in a Trap," and "Killing Me with Kindness" are skate-punk tales of dead-end jobs and general suburban hell, it's skate-punk U.K. style. Theirs is rebellion with a pop sensibility more akin to the Jam and the Police than the Offspring. Consider that Steve Powers (Robbie Williams) agreed to produce them before they were signed. Like Williams, they have an endless supply of catchy tunes, a healthy dose of rock attitude and, in "Lonely Hearts Company," "Army of Two," and the epic "Until My Ship Comes In," the ability to tug at the heartstrings and still be cool. <I>--Dan Gennoe</I>

2 out of 5 stars Poor man's Green Day.......2003-01-31

The only reason I'm not giving this cd just one star is that unlike many of the other pop artists around today they actually write their own songs. They have the snotty nosed pop punk traits of Green Day but not the punch, songs or class. Sorry guys dont give up I would rather see you number 1 than Britney or Nsync.

5 out of 5 stars A great CD.......2001-05-25

This CD is awesome. Buy this CD...it will be a great addition to your collection. Every cut from it is awesome. Listen to the track previews, and you'll see what I mean. They are a really talented band, and their CD has a lot of diversity, so it's great to listen to form start to finish.
