The zebrahead i know and love...

"Okay, so about three months ago I heard "rescue me" from "mfzb" on the radio and fell in love with this band. I quickly ran out (about 2 days later) and got all three of their CD's. First I listened to "waste of mind". To make a long story short, I only liked one song (someday), and hated the rest. It didn't sound like the same band I had heard. The songs were boring, not catchy. The bridges were dumb, the lyrics weren't varied and the rapping was WAY TOO constant. I sold it back 2 days later.



Then I listened to Mfzb. To this day, its my favorite zh album, and a top 10 in my collection. Finally, I got around to "playmate of the year". I was really expecting it to be as bad as "waste of Mind", but I actually really got into it. For one thing, it's alot more pop-punk based than "waste of Mind", giving it a more energetic and catchy sound. For another, there's alot more singing and the rapping serves as an accent rather than a main staple. IMO, these guys were trying to cross over into the pop mainstream, and in doing so, made one of their best decisions ever. Except for maybe one bad song, this is a really solid power-pop album. I still think Mfzb is a million times better, but for what it's worth, Playmate was probably one of the better pop-punk albums released in 2000.



I am...Solid, really catchy 8/10



Playmate of the year...Great guitar work and melody, good singing 9/10



Now or never...Very energetic, favorite on the album 10/10



Wasted...Good song 8/10



I'm money...Funny lyrics 7/10



Go...Awesome chorus 8/10



What's goin on...The serious song, great melody and well sung verses 9/10



Subtract you...Another song with a great chorus 8/10



The hell the is my life...Awesome, really catchy and energetic 9/10



E generation...A little bit different, but okay 6/10



Livin libido loco...I don't understand why they had to kill the album with this one 0/10



In my room...Okay closer, but the better songs were earlier 7/10



So like i said, one bad song, the rest are above average. I'd highly recommend MFZB first, but after that, if you still got some cash to burn, pick up this one too."

"Pop-punk can be great if done correctly. Sometimes, I'm feeling a little too silly to wanna "Rise Above" or have a "Nervous Breakdown." This is why I love this cd. Next to Blink, this is probably the best pop-punk band. I can't explain what sets this apart form the others. For one there is rapping. Honestly, his rap skills aren't that great, but that's easy to overlook. These guys know how to write hooks. "Wasted" is my favorite track. As much as this song celebrates getting drunk and having drunk fun, it's got a rather sad, alcoholic undertone. "Playmate Of The Year" refers to um, a certain magazine that men love. To make a long story short, if you're looking for fun, party cd, this is it."
Awesome CD

"This CD starts out awesome. "I am"....an awesome catchy song. "Playmate of the Year"...a catchy song that is awesome. "Now or Never"....has to be my second favorite...nice track to put at this part of the CD. "Wasted"...nice lyrics. "I'm money"....i love this song...it's so awesome. "Go"...not my favorite...and the beginning of the song isn't that great, but it gets better around the chorus. "What's goin' on?"....my favorite song on this CD...the lyrics are awesome and for a slower song it's pretty rad. "Subtract You"....fits well where placed on this CD....awesome song and lyrics. "Hell that is my life"....i like the lyrics and the guitar in this song...and it's very catchy. "E Generation"....weird...way different from the rest of the stuff on this CD...but still awesome..and the lyrics are nice. "Livin Libido Loco"...they could have left this song off the CD...this song is what makes me rate it a 4 instead of a 5. "In My Room"...awesome lyrics...chorus is awesome....perfect song for ending the CD."
