Amazon.com Terrific sales of their independent Cheshire Cat got Blink-182 signed to a major label (MCA) for 1997's Dude Ranch, which led to radio hits ("Dammit," "Josie") and platinum sales. No "sell-out" on the band's part, though, as Dude Ranch simply features another infectious collection of snotty vocals, punchy rhythms, vivid lyrics, and aggressive chords. San Diego producer Mark Trombino shines some of the scuffed edges, but this is still good ol' Blink at its sunny, effervescent best. Nice "emocore" spoof here ("Emo"), plus an odd knack for crafting bass-lines that recall--seriously!--New Order, and vocal harmonies that owe debts to the Beach Boys. --Mark Woodlief Similar CDs

CD ReviewsPop-punk as it should be Paul Franklin | KY | 03/06/2008 (5 out of 5 stars) "In a fit of nostalgia I pulled this CD from the pile and listened to the entire thing today. High energy like poppy-punk should be, it doesn't take itself at all seriously and it really made me miss the mid-late-90s. This CD pre-dates Travis Barker joining the band, and as much as I appreciate his technical precision, I have to say that I prefer my Blink with the more unpolished garage sound of these earlier performances. Even if post-2000 Blink reminds you of the phony, drunken frat kids that wore it out, don't let that keep you from trying Dude Ranch. It will become one of your favorites too."
