On this album this american melodic punkband mixes rockabilly, country and melodic punk but also with some faster and more aggressive songs. On the photos they look like a rockabilly-band. The album is their most successful and peaked at nr.128 on the Billboard. They were even played at rock radio and MTV. I personally like the heavier and faster songs, the melodic ones are sometimes too melodic and tame. But this is an okey album!

1) So far away (8,5) Kickstart with power, nice guitarsolos and a superstrong melody and refrain.

2)Let it be me (7,5)

3)Story of my life (6,5) Uptempo and happy-happy melody.

4)Sick boys (6,5) Same as above.

5)Ring of fire (Johnny Cash) (5,5) Why?

6)Ball and chain (6,5) Very melodic and midtempo song.

7)It couldabeen me (7,0) Bluesy rocker with harmonica.

8)She's a knockout (8,0) Another superb punkrocker.

9)A place in my heart (8,0)

10)Drug train (6,5) Heavy bluesrocker and again with harmonica. Bad refrain though.

Score: 7,05
