Title: ACTUALLY Really Good!
Review: I bought this CD from a dollar bin at a local music shop around 1997. My friends and I would listen to it half-seriously, but really enjoyed it. I just found the CD at my parents' house while examining my dad's new stereo and immediately went home and imported it to my iTunes. This shit is ACTUALLY really good! Their lyrics are playful yet meaningful and they twist shit! For instance, the song The Oceanfront tells the story of a typical LA beach party, but as the song progresses, it becomes more of a song about growing up and growing apart from their core group of friends and appreciating the time they're able to spend together as obstacles get in the way. Who doesn't relate to that? They're not struggling to sound "hard".It's not a gimmick. They are merely telling stories of their experiences as white kids growing up in a predominantly ethnic environment. The production is tight and the beats are downright funky at times. I'm about to drink another beer and bump this shit!
