Average Rating:
 Rating:  - Good and catchy skaFirst off, Reel Big Fish is a punk ska band. Ska music in general has guitar structure that is usually quick, clean and palm muted for a quick cut of sound. Ska also features trumpets, trombones or other brass instrumentation. That being said reel big fish is a very catchy and fast paced band that features very catchy pop punk songs with ska influences throughout. This CD in particular is poppier than some other Reel Big Fish material however it is still catchy as can be. A downside to this CD is that some of the things that are intended to be funny can come across as somewhat lame and over produced. The first half of the CD is probably the best and most catchy with songs like "Somebody Hates Me" (10/10) "She's Famous ... Read More: Rating:  - don't worry about skipping over tracks, the whole thing rocksHey if you're a fan of ska music, hell, if you're a fan of music at ALL be sure to listen to Why Do They Rock So Hard. This album is filled with the genius of Reel Big Fish's wacky lyrics that they are so well known for, along with their original and fun sound the band carries. If you're looking for the usual stuff that is being played on the radio these days, you won't find it in Why Do They Rock So Hard? The whole production is something impressive that you'll be listening to for years to come. This is possibly the best album that Reel Big Fish has released, in my personal opinion. If you're trying to find out if this band fits your musical tastes, then this album is definitely the ice breaker. There aren't a lot of bands out there ... Read More: Rating: - Awe-inspiringWow, what more can I say than Wow. Why do they Rock so Hard is the followup to the commercially explosive Turn the Radio Off and it does not disappoint. Well, that's a lie. It seems to disappoint a few traditional ska fans who never really liked RBF to begin with. Others dislike it because it has a little bit less Ska than its predecessor (but not much). As far as Ska records are concerned, it is indeed inferior to Reel Big Fish's major label debut. However, as an overall music album it offers a much tighter balance of style and a much more impressive display of musicianship. Frontman Aaron Barrett has perfected his glam-rock style guitar work into a powerful and somewhat complex pop-punk arrangement. Bassist Matt Wong steps the funk up ...

This is the best CD ever made! Somebody Hates Me 10/10: An awesome opener, this song got my attention right away. Brand New Song 10/10: A great happy ska song with pretty good lyrics. She's Famous Now 9/10: Another great ska song but the lyrics aren't the best. You Don't Know 10/10: An awesome song, not up-beat tho. I've wanted to say some of this stuff to some people. The Set Up (You Need This) 10/10: Another sweet ska song. Great harmonizing, great horns, great everything. Thank You For Not Moshing 9/10: Pretty good, I'm not to big on the Jamaican guy singing and stuff in the verse. I'm Cool ... Read More: Rating: - Better Than Before... No Really It IsIn My Opinion this cd is better than "Turn The Radio Off" but only slightly, their both pretty equal but both different Some of the songs here are slower and 1 or 2 even border on reggae (sp?) I think there is 1 filler song and thats it My favorite songs are Brand New Song, and Song #3 OH and some of these lyrics are uber Funnay |
