The album itself great, CD fine. Not happy with all the stickers and South Tyneside Library stamped across the cover art though.

“Classic rock is so outdated.” These are the words of ska/punk band Less Than Jake on the lead single ‘Overrated’ off their new album In With the Out Crowd. Let’s not discuss the irony of a ska band calling out an entire genre, much less classic rock – so named because of the simple fact that it’s old. In fact, LTJ seem perfectly aware that ska has become a universal rock and roll punch line; they all but drop the genre from their first new release since 2003. Instead, the band experiments – if you can call it that – with the same kind of pop-punk that’s made bands like Sum 41 huge crossover stars. They only really break out the horns in earnest on a couple of songs, and even then they aren’t really in full blown ska mode. The veteran band comfortably breeze through 12 songs of hook-heavy, chorus driven material, but the album as a whole lacks teeth. Fans won’t be disappointed, but new ones won’t be signing up in droves.Read full review
I wasn't sure about this album when I ordered it, it was a bit of a gamble. Let me tell you that gamble payed off. An brilliant album full of catchy songs that I have been singing along to in my car. I will definitely be buying more albums from less than jake.
One of the best if not the best new cd in my collection, got a great list of tracks on it. sometimes you only like half, can listen to every track and enjoy it. Some tracks are more high tempo, but theyre what ud expect from a great band!
not too sure to start with but after hearing it a couple of times it stands up there with their other great albums.
