Forget and remove from the ear the punk rock and hc sounds of Kingwood to land in pure pop-punk territories with more rock undertones. An album honestly hard to judge, that barely reaches a pass, unfortunately lacking impact and speed in multiple episodes.

This review harshly criticizes Blink-182's Enema Of The State, labeling it a stereotypical and unoriginal pop-punk album. While Travis Barker's drumming is noted positively, the guitar riffs, vocals, and production are seen as predictable and overly clean. The reviewer recommends earlier Blink-182 works or other bands like Green Day and Alkaline Trio for more originality and edge. Dive deeper into pop-punk history—listen, compare, and decide if Enema Of The State truly lives up to the hype.
