Although its length hardly goes above the 30-minute mark, We the Kings self-titled debut album feels tedious and way too sappy to be considered anything believable. Don't get me wrong, the record's instrumentally sufficient and the frontman's vocals are okay, but we swear their brand of pop punk has been done nearly a thousand times before - to the point where We the Kings is inferior to any other release with a similar style preceding it.

While being far from original, We the Kings (slightly) rises above the massive sea of emo-ish pop-rock wannabes with honest, sincere music filled with hooks.

There are a few songs on this CD that are just awesome: mainly "Check Yes Juliet", "Skyway Avenue", and "This Is Our Town". Other than that, everything sounds pretty much the same. The guitars and drums may grab your attention, but I'll warn you, the vocals get a little annoying after 3 or 4 songs. There isn't really much about the album that'll make you want to go back and listen to it a month later. Go on iTunes and download a song or two, but save yourself the cash and don't buy the album unless you REALLY like them.

Cheesy pop rock from my youth that I could never get back into.

I loved pop punk as a young teen, but even I couldn't get into this stuff

I'm almost ashamed of liking this. Almost. But the singles are just too damn catchy. Too bad the rest of the songs (not to mention, the rest of their discography) are hardly worth listening to. 3/5, maybe 3.5/5 on a good summer day.

as soon as i heard skyway avenue, i knew that this cd and i were going to be good friends. with the sweet sounds of secret valentine, the romance of check yes juliet and skyway avenue, and the sad sound of august is over and all again for you, this cd deserves some respect.
