Along with other California third-wave punk bands like NOFX and MXPX, Pennywise came to fame in the '90s as a major part of the skater/extreme sports milieu. Though the Offspring had more financial success with a pretty similar sound, Pennywise always had the market cornered in terms of street cred with the skater kids. By the time of STRAIGHT AHEAD's release, the revered Cal-punk quartet were already seasoned vets, having gone through the death of a band member (bass player Jason Thirsk), toured ceaselessly, and released several records on top-dog punk label Epitaph. As this 1999 release shows, Pennywise never abandoned their commitment to the classic West Coast skate-punk sound; fast-and-loud Bad Religion-descended hardcore brushed with thrash-metal dynamics and catchy but unobtrusive pop hooks. For as much as the rabble-rousing lyrics decry the sociopolitical state of things, the churning, frenetic guitar and drums offer an immediate, visceral escape from the malaise.

Recorded at Stall #2, Redondo Beach, California.

Recording information: Stall #2, Redondo Beach.

Pennywise: Jim Lindberg (vocals); Fletcher Dragge (guitar); Randy Bradbury (bass); Byron Chase McMackin (drums).

Spin (8/99, p.152) - 7 (out of 10) - "...Pennywise inherits [Bad Religion's] puritanical fervor, get-a-grip sloganeering, and...an anti-government self-reliance that includes down-with-taxes rants....these are the kids your parents hoped you would be."
CMJ (6/7/99, p.26) - "...The group's pure, unfiltered passion saturates its music, which works as an ideal soundtrack for the daily lives of both half-pipe dwellers and alienated punk intellectuals."
Guitar Magazine (7/99, p.96) - "...STRAIGHT AHEAD is an apt title for both the record and the band's lyrical and musical attitude....perfectly tapped into the zeitgeist of male teenage America..."

5 stars MINDBLOWING!! From Start To Finish
with this album right here, Straight Ahead, Pennywise sent the message that they were looking to go heavier, and with the next-in-line album "Land of the Free?", they accomplished that feat, but this is about 'Straight Ahead' right here and now, and oh hell what a sheer blast of extremely catchy punk rock tunes it is, tunes like: "Greed" , "My Own Country" , "Victim of Reality" , "Might Be a Dream" , "Still Can Be Great" , "Straight Ahead" , "My Own Way" , "Alien" , "Just For You" , "Need More" and "Never Know". Rock Solid Guys!!!

3 stars This album is just average
I don't consider myself a 'pennywise fan' but I bought this album for the song 'Alien' which is a great song; Very catchy. The rest of the songs on the album just sound 'the same' to me... I wouldn't recommend this album if you don't consider yourself a big punk rock fan.
