The weak point of the four Californians, unfortunately accentuated here, is the constant choice to stuff the album with fillers sandwiched between the best songs. Fat Mike’s humor remains good when dealing with delicate issues like the death penalty in 'The man I killed,' while criticism of the Bush administration is present in 'Usa holes.'

NoFX’s tenth album sticks closely to their established punk style with few surprises. Despite some strong tracks like "Usa Holes" and politically charged lyrics, the album suffers from too many fillers and a lack of the ska influences present in earlier works. Acoustic ballads replace former energetic segments, which may divide longtime fans. Overall, 'Wolves In Wolves' Clothing' delivers moderate highlights but does not fully satisfy. Discover the highs and lows of NoFX's 'Wolves In Wolves' Clothing'—stream the album and hear the punk politics firsthand!

"'Human,' captivated me right away even before listening to the CD, being an atypical piece for me with keyboards, electronics, and lively guitars in the choruses." "A good CD, which for its genre... is not at all cliché and demonstrates the qualities and creativity of these Danish guys."

"We are faced with a work that is really boring... they lack energy and episodes that excite us." "The calmest, most introspective, and most thoughtful album of the Ataris' production."

The Ataris' 'So Long, Astoria' shows a stylistic shift toward a calmer, more introspective rock sound compared to their punk roots. Despite some good tracks like 'In This Diary,' the album overall lacks energy and excitement. Instrumentation includes piano and strings, but the record feels predictable and somewhat boring. Fans of the previous album 'End Is Forever' may find something to like, but others might be disappointed. Discover The Ataris' stylistic evolution—listen to So Long, Astoria and judge its mellow rock charm yourself.
The only aspect that stands out in this album is surely Tony Sly’s beautiful vocal tone, one of the most beautiful voices of the genre. The hallmark of this album is perhaps the absence of great 'pogo' episodes, instead it is full of overly thin vocal lines that do not encourage one to listen to it entirely.

Keep Them Confused by No Use For A Name marks a melodic shift with strong pop-rock elements and fewer hardcore moments. Tony Sly’s vocals stand out, supported by occasional string arrangements. While some tracks like "Check for a Pulse" shine, the album overall lacks memorable highlights and feels uneven. It reflects an evolution rather than a breakthrough, staying true to the band's independent path. Explore Keep Them Confused and discover Tony Sly’s unique vocals and the band’s melodic evolution.
The initial pair 'Nightmare' and 'City council' is a punch in the stomach, from which it is difficult to recover. Here the screams are rancid, violent, nihilistic, smelling of beer, as much out of tune and hoarse.

The album title, (literally good mourning), already says a lot about the kind of lyrics and music from the trio. The personal touch that the group manages to give to their music is undeniable and recognizable.

The ten tracks are as dull as the music market can offer. They can’t break away from the usual rhythms, melodies and they repeat endlessly, quickly tiring.

The review criticizes 30 Seconds to Mars' album A Beautiful Lie for its repetitiveness, uninspired song structures, overproduced sound, and weak vocal techniques.

Overall, it is deemed a disappointing effort with little originality or musical depth. Read this honest review before you listen to A Beautiful Lie and discover an alternative rock experience!
"This album is a collection, for the record, and it’s really poorly done without any half measures." "The final dance/techno remix of 'Smile in your sleep,' only one word is needed: embarrassing."

Silverstein's '18 Candles: The Early Years' is a poorly executed compilation, featuring low-quality sound and mostly unremarkable punk tracks. Though a few songs hint at the emo-core style the band later perfected, the album largely fails to deliver. Acoustic and live tracks offer some interest, but an ill-advised techno remix detracts further. Recommended only for die-hard fans curious about Silverstein's beginnings. Explore Silverstein's journey but skip this compilation unless you're a dedicated fan!
"Punk In Drublic, an anagram of 'Drunk in public,' is certainly what brought Fat Mike and company to international success." "An album that is still good, with great hits alternating with very negligible tracks and at times filler content."

Noted for its lack of choruses in many songs, the album remains a good but imperfect punk classic within NoFX's discography.
