 Great Upbeat Rock February 27, 2008
LK
This is an album that I play very often as it's one of my more upbeat rock albums and this is not so common. The singles on this album are amazing and can be played constantly without getting boring - much like the album actually. I've seen them live and they are very funny and some bits on this album had me giggling first time round to.
Some of the songs on this have a dance feel to it like the single Uhn Tiss Uhn Tiss... whereas there is still the moshing tunes like the brilliant Foxtrot Uniform Charlie Kilo.
I would recommend this album to all as you don't have to be in to this sort of music to enjoy this album.

When I got into Jimmy Pop's rap/punk outfit back during the time Hooray for Boobies came out, I had never bargained on waiting five years for new material. Since it had taken them so long, it was easy to believe this would be the strongest set of songs to be committed by a bunch of puerile humourists.Well, disappointingly that ain't the case with Hefty Fine. Its good to hear new songs from them, for instance Foxtrot is one of their catchiest tunes to date and the simplicity of Pennsylvania could cause singalongs with its infectious chorus. However, nothing here is up there with their old material, even 'Uhn Tiss, Uhn Tiss, Uhn Tiss' as contagious as it is, you can't help but think this is The Bad Touch with a faster beat. However, on the flipside of things, this is a good album, with metal riffs (Balls Out) big punk songs (Ralph Wiggum) and more techno inspiration (I'm The Least You Could Do). Even depending on your level of resistance, the killer pay-off line in No Hard Feelings will win you over instantly. Even the lead guitarist gets a bit of solo action on the appropriately titled 'Farting With A Walkman On'. What brings it down most of all is the length of the record and the skits. Its just a wonder how the next album will turn out.

its a welcome return to the Bloodhound Gang with a new selection of parental humour. if the cover is shocking this album is for you. it includes the single Foxtrot Charlie Uniform Kilo and a homeage to Ralph Wiggum.
Great music, just not enough of it October 29, 2005

The Bloodhound Gang return after quite some time on top form.
This album proves that they can master any kind of music they turn their hand to, from heavy metal "Balls Out" to the "Uhn Tiss", which sounds as though it would be more at home in an Ibiza club, as well as everything inbetween, such as "I'm The Least You Could Do."
This album has some great tracks, the lyrics of which will undoubtedly stick in your head, notably "Ralph Wiggum" and "Foxtrot..."
The only downside to this album is that it's surprisingly short. There's 13 tracks, 3 of which are 10 second long talking clips, and if you cut out the 5 minutes of silence at the end of track 13, it ends up at a little over 35 minutes.
It's a real shame, because the album has such great songs on it. More material would easily equal a 5th star for this review.
