    Generic. Have I heard this somewhere before? Sounds like every other power pop "punk" band.

    Another collection of typical speed punk tunes, virtually indistinguishable from the work of Green Day and Blink-182, not to mention dozens of other similar bands.

    If play-it-to-the-back-rows, unabashed power-pop is what the Ataris were after here, they've delivered it with nigh perfection.

    Leave this record on the shelf. When it invariably hits the used bins, don't buy it.
