Like Smash Mouth, Bowling for Soup is a punk-pop act that seemingly appears on every other soundtrack for early-2000s comedies and animated films. This 2005 collection presents the Texas-based quartet's movie-related tunes, including the highly ... Full Descriptioncaffeinated "Jimmy Neutron Theme" (from JIMMY NEUTRON, BOY GENIUS), the free-wheeling "Here We Go" (from SCOOBY-DOO 2: MONSTERS UNLEASHED), and a rocked-out rendition of Britney Spears's "Baby One More Time" (from FREAKY FRIDAY). In addition to previously unreleased originals, BFS also offers revved-up takes on Modern English's "I Melt With You" and Matthew Sweet's "Sick of Myself," proving that, in the good-times world of hyperactive cover tunes and energetic film themes, Bowling for Soup hit the big time.

These Texas power pop punks may describe their music as "Steve Martin meets Cheap Trick on Speed," and they may have adapted stage names like Erik Rodham Clinton and Gary Wiseass (bass and drums, respectively). Still, despite the occasional in-your-face anomaly, like the very funny "Bitch," they're actually no more of a goof than, say, Green Day. The songwriting here is sharp, and, surprisingly, their cover of Bryan Adams' "Summer of '69" is done straight--apparently they simply liked the song. Or perhaps they just appreciate the irony in singing a nostalgic song written by a man who didn't fully experience the ...

Goes To The Movies CD music
$39.09
PLAYS LIVE is the sound of a man finally freeing himself definitively from the shackles that had bound him for years. Admittedly those shackles, being front man for Genesis, one of the most fascinating and consistently creative prog-rock bands of the early '70s, were hardly severe. But they were a constraint nonetheless. (How often could Peter take some fan screaming "Suppers Ready" when trying to debut new material?) Finally, with a substantial body of solo material (four albums, three of them titled PETER GABRIEL), Gabriel was ready to put the ghost of Genesis to rest.
And while he did drive a stake through his art-rock past, Gabriel's incendiary stage presence could not be distinguished. Luckily the live set captured here, which draws heavily from the ...

"Girl All The Bad Guys Want" was nominated for the 2003 Grammy Awards for Best Pop Performance By A Duo Or Group With Vocal.
With Marvelous 3's Butch Walker at the production helm and a firm tongue-in-cheek sense of humor, Bowling For Soup once again separates itself from the pop-punk masses by way of DRUNK ENOUGH TO DANCE, the band's third full-length outing. Leaning more towards Rivers Cuomo's geek-punk sans the dark overtones versus the smart-ass bluster of Sum 41, BFS plays perennial runner-up in the game of love. Going cheeky versus bitter in addressing their romantic shortcomings, these Texans conjure up ear candy like "She's Got A Boyfriend," harmony-soaked post-break-up anthem "Life After Lisa," and chugging "Girl All The Bad Guys Want." Other highlights include Blink-182-ish manna like the pogo-ready "Cold Shower Tuesdays," the galloping insistence of "The Last Rock Show," and quick shuffling story-song ...
| | Bowling For Soup Hangover You Don't Deserve CD (2004) Enhanced CD
Goes To The Movies album
$9.85
Looking at the cover images of a quartet of tattooed, Orange County-style punk rockers, one might be forgiven for assuming that Bowling for Soup is yet another band of Blink 182 wannabes. While A HANGOVER YOU DON'T DESERVE's chugging guitars, high-pitched vocals, tight playing, and rapid tempos are certainly elements common to the music of the Texas-based combo's Southern California brethren, Bowling for Soup's sharp songwriting places it in a different category altogether.
With pure pop smarts on par with Fountains of Wayne, lead vocalist/songwriter Jaret Reddick is more inventive than the average neo-punk frontman. Lyrically, Reddick may be the closest ...
