for this album to FINALLY come out..."Riddlin Kids" have returned with an explosive, ultra-catchy, breathtaking sophmore release, sure to please even their toughest critics. Every track, from start to finish, is a masterpiece. And although the album is only about 38 minutes long, it's well worth the price (12.99). On "stop the world", RK basically stuck to their pop-punk influenced sound (Although it's Heavier on "Hurry up and wait), making only minor exceptions for a few choice songs. I have only one compliant; although there are only 3 explitives on the ENTIRE CD, far from the number needed for a PA (10), RK felt the need to edit the word f**k out of track 8's chorus. That was pretty disappointing (mainly because I HATE cencorship). Chase cut: If you like music from bands like NFG, Simple Plan, the early Blink 182, Sum 41, Allister or Midtown, you'll like riddlin kids...

1. Never Live It Down 10/10 this song is definetly one of the best songs on this CD, it has good lyrics and acatchy tune.

2. Get To It 10/10 original, It has a great rhythimical tune "to it", already 2 words from the title, awesome song, keeps me unbored.

3. Stop The World 8/10 it was known for one of the hits but i didnt enjoy it as much as the others because its different and weird, no offence, but its like cowboyish to me.

4. Apology 10/10 keeps me occupied, but deserves a 10 because of the great lyrics and vocals, it just doesnt get as boring as stop the world and its better.

5. Promise You Anything 10/10 my favorite song on the CD and favorite song out of all the albums, this song never, i repeat never gets me bored, it's so smooth and keeps you up, and kind of gives you confidence in getting a girlfriend, i tried it for a while, while listening to this song, it worked well.

6. Talk Of The Town 10/10 keeps me occupied once again, should of been one of the hits for this album, i don't know why, but it sounds great.

7. I Want You To Know 10/10 keeps you occupied, the vocals on this one is good and the guitarists' are pretty awesome, and it talks about girls like any other song would, haha. But it also keeps you sort of like jumpy and ready to get some.

8. I Hate You 10/10 i like this song becuase of the good guitar background, and the lead singer is also pretty well at singing fine lyrics, this song will last for a while bfore it ever gets boring.

9. Revenge 10/10 i like this song, because it reminds me of kicking this kids but. For ruining my life.

10. Turn Around 10/10 this is my second favorite song on this album and has good lyrics and great surround sound, i like it alot, i listen to it every nowand then and you should too.

11. Ship Jumper 10/10 good, because of the hard core, part in the beggining.

12. Just Another Day 10/10 my third favorite song on this album because of the background guitarists' and the vocals and base and everthing, it rocks!

The best songs on this album are: promise you anything, just another day and turn around. these songs are just never boring to me, haha. I hope this was useful information.

This is one awesome band!! They deserve more publicity..They are not posers. If you like bands like New Found Glory, Jimmy Eat World, Green Day, and Sugarcult..and other alternative bands like these you will love Riddlin' Kids!! My favorite songs were Stop the World, REvenge, I hate You,Ship Jumper, and Never Live it down! I loved all the songs on this CD. This is not a waste of money! AUSTIN BANDS ROCK!! (Representing!) Im from austin too! xD

"Stop The World" is a major-label release riddled with smart, powerful punk-emo-pop. Riddlin' Kids is a hard-rocking outfit that pounds home tight, melodic songs much like Lit, The Black Mollys and Diffuser.

The First Riddlin' Kids Album was of course, standard Pop Punk with it's singles and the bland dribble that is Punk. Its singles being the Pop ones. Whats wrong with pop though? Everytime it's said, its said with such disdain! I like it. Anyway, this is a good album. You can tell the band really grew, and the singer certainly uses his vocals alot more in this one.

It's essentially the same album, but harder actually. not like METAL hard or ROCK hard, but deeper notes and more powerfull instruments.

It's Good.

What an exciting CD! Rock, pop, punk, all of it just great. This CD has big, crunching chords and riffs but at the same time is sugary sweet! "Turn Around" should be a massive hit - great funny lyrics, and it is even catchier than "Stacy's Mom." There is no telling how good these guys could turn out to be. OUTSTANDING!!! BUY IT NOW!!!

If you don't have this CD yet you are a rockhead (and not in the good way). These guys pour their guts into every performance. I saw them live twice during the recent tour where they opened for Bowling For Soup and..... DAMN!!. See them live or at least buy the frickin CD. I recommend Stop the World and Revenge if you want to sample it first.

I have been a fan of the Riddlin' Kids for a few years now. I saw them in concert before they released their first cd and knew someting special was going on....this cd blows my mind though. If you buy this cd and do not like it i will kick myself in the b^#%& for every one of you F$^$*#.
