Customer Reviews of This Album/CD |

 Excellent CD
Submitted on: 2009-10-15 |

| When I bought this CD, I only knew one song by Buckcherry, but the other songs are awsome. It's true that some are very explicit, but they are catchy songs - you can't help but sing along. Definitely not for kids under 18 though. If all you know of Buckcherry is the song "Sorry" you are in for a definite surprise! |

 Where is "Too Drunk..."!?
Submitted on: 2009-09-22 |
|
| The only reason reason I bought this album is because I thought it had the song Too drunk on it but it doesn't! I am so upset, if Shazam hadn't told me that it was on the album I would have look into it more. I am very disappointed... Does anyone know where Too Drunk is, how can I buy this? |

BUCKCHERRY 2006 release
Submitted on: 2009-09-05 |

| Buckcherry's sound can be described as somewhere between, Aerosmith and The Black Crowes, putting them in good company. This really comes across on this record, entitled, 15. A blend of a little of everything, from blues orientated rock, to hard rock, metal. Making for a satisfying sounding record. The highlight of this record was the track, Crazy Bitch. |

Overproduced, Overplayed; A Great Rock Album From An Underrated Band
Submitted on: 2009-05-06 |

Buckcherry never achieved solid popularity when they released their debut album Buckcherry in 1999. They broke up after releasing their terrific (and very hard to acquire) album Time Bomb and no one really noticed. Singer/lyricist Josh Todd did a couple movies and a great album with an unsigned band he found in Utah and everyone else just faded off the radar. 15 is their comeback album and they came back in a big way.
This overproduced album with a sound tailor-made for radio is great. I don't like much new music and Buckcherry's demographic does seem to be teenage kids, but Buckcherry brings back the sex, drugs, and rock `n' roll aspect in the vein of Guns N' Roses that's been missing for a long time. 15 is not an album that will appeal to the people who like "real rock music" that doesn't get radio play, but what this album has is catchy, heavy, rock songs that I compulsively listened to. It's already a Platinum album and has spawned quite a few radio hits, which causes music fans to lose respect for a great album needlessly...But, if you can dig what I'm saying, read on; if you don't, you're not going to agree with what else I have to say, so just stop...
This album can be separated into two categories: Great and Good.
GREAT:
Next 2 You, Out of Line, Everything, Carousel, Sorry, Crazy B****, Sunshine, Broken Glass, and Back in the Day (Bonus Track, available on some editions).
GOOD:
So Far, Onset, Brooklyn, and Pump It Up (Cover song; Bonus track).
The album starts off with "So Far," which I don't dislike, but I find kind of annoying. I hate the chorus and I think it shows the less talented side of the band. The album kicks into high-gear on the second track "Next 2 You." This gets radio play a lot and is just a great, catchy rock track. It's got a great vocal melody, funny lyrics, and is just a great party song. The band gets serious on its next four songs. "Out of Line" and "Everything" show perfectly how Josh Todd can (at least, in the studio) go from screaming to singing and project emotion into the lyrics he's singing. Both songs are incredibly overproduced, but these songs are two of my favorites...Especially "Everything" which has some great vocals on it. "Carousel" has a country-tinge to it that Buckcherry pulls off wonderfully.
It shares themes with the next song "Sorry," but sort of the sequel or prequel to that. "Sorry" is overplayed and is a love it or hate it song; the lyrics are something a lot of people can relate to, while not entering the realm of deep or thought-provoking. We've
All heard "Crazy B****." I can hardly listen to this song anymore, but I listened to it for a long time and always loved it. "Sunshine" has a great guitar riff and is just another catchy track. "Broken Glass" has been in commercials and is probably the heaviest song on the album, while still retaining a pop essence to it. The bonus track "Back in the Day" is a short, catchy song that could easily be played on the radio.
The "Good" songs are pretty good and I've listened to them many times, but they just aren't as good as the aforementioned tracks.
When Buckcherry re-formed to do this album, the only original members were Josh Todd and guitarist Keith Nelson. These two are the core of the band and almost were in the spots later filled by Dave Kushner and Scott Weiland in Velvet Revolver. Nelson is a very talented guitar player, who is responsible for writing the riffs that have made the band as big as they are. Also along for the ride here is Stevie D. (rhythm guitarist), Jimmy Ashhurst (bass), and Xaviel Muriel...They're all solid players, but it's Todd and Nelson that makes this band what it is.
Buckcherry is, in my opinion, underrated. Taken into consideration that they're a relatively newer band with a teenage following, they're certainly better than My Chemical Romance, Saving Abel, and most of the stuff they play on rock stations that sounds the same. Todd has a great rock voice; not an "impressive" vocalist, but a great singer for what he's singing. He also has moments of lyrical ingenuity (unfortunately coupled with moments of lyrical FAIL) that typically go unnoticed with songs like "Crazy B****" ruling the airwaves.
I love this album and have listened to it more than most of the CD's I own. This was my introduction to Buckcherry and they entered into my life at a really unique time. Their music touched me and has stayed with me since. This is a great band, this is a great rock album...Definitely worth buying.

| I usually don't listen to this type of music. I am more of a traditional Rock and Roller. But, I thought it was time to expand my thinking. I am glad I did. The CD was fun and has a great beat - enjoy - I do. |
