    More hype than talent. More style than substance. Hey they are still young maybe they will get better. Probably not.

    Too short, too fast - just like the longevity of this album.

    It's okay, it is what it is: high energy fun; forgettable songs and melodies. Just because it fulfills the low expectations of its chosen genre doesn't make it amazing stuff. I'm trying to imagine how it could be better. And how it could be worse. A 6 rating is about right.

    Hey, it's different to hear an album by youngsters now that is on the purer side of punk. Better than Fever To Tell by the Yeah Yeah Yeahs, which is the type of sound it aspires to.

  1. Yes, the album drags. Yes, the tracks bleed into each other. It is, ultimately, a tiring listen from a band whose sole aim seems to be to innervate every neurone in your body.
  2. This is a young band not taking themselves too seriously, and you can really picture them as they rock out and enjoy themselves.
  3. Much of the reason for bothering with BYOP lies in the absolute glory of hearing Pearl succeed in making every lyrical couplet she spews forth sound as if she's been drinking cider since birth and is ready to hurl... anytime... now!
