The statement about the album being a mix of punk rock and Jamaican reggae is misleading. First off there's no reggae on the album at all. The song structures and lyrics may be reggae-inspired, but it isn't explicitly reggae in the familiar sense of the term. Second, this is actually a step away from punk rock; they wandered more in the direction of progressive metal. I won't be the one to change it now though, because I'm not sure how to word it. And, just maybe, someone will come along and dispute me or give something even more accurate. --Sly

I agree that it's not "a mix of punk rock and Jamaican reggae", but it's not a progressive metal album either... the band still a punk band, that in the same way that they incorporated reggae in there sound, they incorporated elements of funk, and yes some heavy metal... but it's still a punk rock album, or i'll accept alternative rock album or even post-punk album (because it's fits in the category, being an album that tries to incorporate newer influences into punk) --Leo

I loathe the term "alternative rock" being used in the first sentence. Brian Wisconsin 17:21, 1 February 2007 (UTC)
