Blink 182-Enema of the State
Okay, so the title isn't appealing, and Blink 182 is known for their juvenile sense of humor. Beneath all that though is a great album. It's not as good as Dookie by Green Day but that album was legendary. However it has a Green Day pop punk feel that is quickly engrossing. It's also a little deeper than one might think-songs dealing with suicide, sexual frustration and the refusal to grow up.
Am I overblowing it? A little bit. No one will ever mistake Blink 182 for lyrics for Bob Dylan music or John Irving novels. But if you like pop punk, and sometimes we all need that bubblegum in our lives, this is absolutely an album to check out.
