![]() Heart-felt lyrics about lost love ( "if you wanted to stay, i'd have you anyday" ) and great guitars make listening to this one a very worthwhile four minutes.Ĭool, classic sounding riff and lyrics about some female star that Jones seems to dislike ( "she's been in magazines, what a little beauty queen" ). ![]() Second ballad with a heavy Oasis feel to it, which is no bad thing. Good lyrics about escaping a dead-end relationship ( "I gotta get outta here, you got the best of me" ). Definitely one of the best here.Ī heavy intro, before making way for verses that steal the riff from Green Day's "Jackass". Kick-ass solo too, not too complex but still very cool. Good verses with Jones spitting bile at an ex-girlfriend ( "so what? if you don't like me I don't give a fuck" ). Great intro riff, before the all-band attack kicks in. The song starts with a riff that seems to just slide in, before the fast chorus. This is one that falls slightly below that, but still a decent, likeable song.Ī great breakup song that somehow manages to name-check Pancho Villa, Jackie Chan, Dennis Rodman, and Jackson Brown, along with the use of hip-hop language to a quite funny effect ( "holla back, y'all", "check this rhyme" ). I as an AH-F fan can say that Jones is capable of writing a great ballad ("Another Perfect Day", for instance). It has soft acoustic guitars and light crooning in the verses that make way for loud guitars and all-out, emotive vocals in the choruses. The first ballad on the album, with Jones singing about how much he misses an ex, but puts on a front when he sees her so as not to let her know. ![]() I like this one but the decision to not let it be the title track was a wise one. Good riffs and lots of energy, it also has a very punky feel to it. A very cool intro riff starts it, before the drums blast in and Jones starts spitting out his lyrics at an ex ( "break it down now, what you want anyway?" ). This one was originally set to be the title track, although when you hear it, you kinda wonder why. The verses have a sorta reggae-skank feel to them (a la The Clash), and the lyrics are very detailed, if a bit comical ( "one more thing before you go: could you please give me my records back?", "you can keep the dog we bought, but you can't go near the Standard bar" ). Funny thing is, this is actually a pretty good song. It certainly sounds like it - it uses the chorus chords from "Flavor" (in the same order) and makes a whole new song out of 'em. Jones has often said that this song is "Flavor Of The Weak, Part 2.". All in all, a good example of AH-F's different musical direction and a very good start to the album.Ī live favourite. Although Jones was a bit past teenage when he wrote this (32 years old), it still works, despite the Kim Wylde lyrics placed in the outro ( "we're the kids in America!" ). The chorus is killer, exploding with a "hey ho, let's go!" stolen (respectfully) from the Ramones, before letting loose with a "1-2, fuck you! don't tell me what to do!". It starts with a Adam and the Ants-style drum beat (sorry, but there's no escaping that fact), before the Drop-D tuned guitars kick in with a sharp, two chord riff. Title track and the first single, it's a song about being a bored suburban teen that's tired of getting pushed around by people who think they're superior. This was their follow-up record for Island, and it was also their last (Island let them go at the end of 2003). They released their eponymous debut album on Island Records in 2001, which featured the singles "Flavor Of The Weak" and "Another Perfect Day".
