One of the most underrated CD's ever...

"This Cd, when it was first released, was carried entirely by "Walkin' on the Sun" which doomed Smash Mouth to forever sing songs the same way, thinking that it would help their image. That's rather unfortunate because the other songs on this CD such as "Heave-Ho", "Padrino", and my personal favorite "Nervous in the Alley" have an entirely different sound and feel. This CD deserves a second glance so instead of just scoffing at it because it's smash mouth, listen to the samples. This is the only CD from Smash Mouth with and Explicit Lyrics sticker, because after this they went soft. This is good music, check it out."
Their First & Best!

"I have originally bought All star smash hits, for only a couple songs, so then i checked out their debut. But really i wished Smash Mouths music style stayed this way, because i don't really enjoy SKA, but Punk is one of my favourite genres.
Flo- 5/5 Cool Song! Good way to start!
Beer Goggles 5/5 Catchy, yet a good song!
Walkin On the Sun- 5/5 Good Song!
Lets Rock- 4/5 Sometime slow, and other times fast, but gets the same after a while.
Heave-ho- 5/5 Seems long, but its very catchy.
The Fonz- 5/5 Don't know what the title is suppose to mean, but the slow melody, and tone of voice makes a good song!
Pet Names- 5/5 Hilarious Lyrics, and has a good melody!
Padrino- 3/5 Sort of Weird sounding... Not the best.
Nervous In the Alley- 5/5 One of my favourites! Should have been on All Star Smash Hits!
Disconnect The dots- 4/5 It was pretty good, but not my favourite.
Push- 5/5 My favourite song! Very melodic, and catchy!
Why can't we be friends? - 3/5 Okay cover, but its long and gets annoying..."
