This CD is pretty good if you are a fan of Lit/Handsome Devil. It is your basic pop-punk CD with no real originality. |

I actually really dig this album a lot. IMHO I think it's got a touch of the Lit thing happenin', but I think it's also got a lot of the sleaze feel of bands like Junkyard, etc. "Bleed", "Revelation", "Automatic", and "If We Were Kings" are the standouts for me. I found it on half.com for as low as $0.76, and it's easily worth at least that to check it out. It's certainly not ground-breaking, but it's a good listen pretty much all the way through. |

hot damn, this band rocks bigtime..this was my favorite release of 2000..they sure know how to write great rock tunes with a sleazy undertone...for me this is the band that fills up the gap that guns n roses left...any songs to recommend? 'underground (great lyrics)','free your mind' (mindblowing tune), 'if we were kings' (anthem) and my favorite song 'i guess i better warn ya, cos i've been to california..'.pure rock n roll pleasure...thank you american pearl |

Good slab of modern hard rock. Slightly more aggressive than LIT, but definitely from the same school of thought. Play it loud! |

Uhhmmm....there's something wrong with this cd...it's a bit weak... |

While, the band was written off as a diluted version of Buchcherry meets Social Distortion, there were some great moments on this record. By no means was it a classic, but it will grow on you after a number of spins. Unfortunately, the band didn't stick around for too long & disbanded within a year or so of this record being issued. I managed to pick this one up in near mint condition in a local shop for a mere $3.99! It was a steal & worth every penny. Check it out. 7.5 rating overall. |

Good music but nothing groundbreaking. Good vocals with upbeat tunes. Slight modern southern/glam hard rock feel to most of the tunes. |

This one came out of now where!!! Great debut of a killer sleeze rock band. They remind me of a more refined Backyard Babies. It's raw as hell, but gushing with melody at the same time. One of my favs in 2000. If you like your rock stripped to the bone, then check these f*#ckers out!!! |

pretty good debut by AMERICAN PEARL ,which has ex members of great hair metal acts SHEL SHOC and HARLOT!but dont expect anything like those great bands,cause this is released in 2000!guitar driven rock n roll ,it kinda reminds me of Backyard Babies i d say with good songs ,but not as catchy as they should be!interesting release though full of good riffs and arrangements! |

I had never heard of this band back in the day, but someone bought me a copy of the CD as they were a fan. Now while I certainly would not say it was the amazing album that she promoted it as, it was certainly a million miles better than the other band she kept trying to force on me (Creed). The music is pretty much straight ahead rock with a hint of glam, much like Buckcherry (Kevin Roentgen briefly joined Buckcherry many years later). The first comment on here says it is pop punk, and that could not be further from the truth. No pop in this one, and very little punk. Standout track for me was California. Strange to think I have now owned this for 24 years as I still think of them as a "modern" band. ha ha |

These guys were on the same label as Creed (and Stapp and Co. obediently talked them up in the media at the time), and were positioned as Wind-Up's answer to Buckcherry. But they were about a year too late to a very short-lived party. I never heard much of that vibe in their music, and thought they sounded more like the typical (non-nu-metal) stuff you'd hear on the radio in the late '90's. If you squinted your ears, you might pick out some old-school elements. Honestly, what they remind me of most is a regional band called Rebel Amish Radio, whose CD I somehow got hold of around the same time. Neither one grabbed me. And that harsh, trebly production—OOF! |
