I loved both their debut album and The Pick of Destiny and was worried this wouldn't meet my high expectations. I was wrong.

There's quite a few different styles on the album with To Be the Best, 39, Senorita, Rock is Dead, and so on. The humor hasn't worn thin for me yet, either. Of course, who doesn't love lyrics like these:

"She needs a dentist appointment quick
I pay for it and she sucka my dick
When we text each other, I fiddle with my anus

I stick the finger in it!
Then I frickin' didariddly doo
And I frickin' gots to spew
Upon my belly, dripped upon my shoe
Get me a tissue"

My only complaint is ROTF is too short, around only 41 minutes.

What's everyone else's thought on the album?

I've only listened to the clips on iTunes, but I liked what I heard. But...I'm a huge Foo Fighters/Dave Grohl fan, and he played drums on this record, so I'm biased.

Pure unadulterated awesomeness. The D is back.

I was as skeptical as anyone, but the album really blew me away. I like pretty much the whole thing.

Same.

And Groehl is great on this album, just as he was as Satan on the last album. I'd like to see him tour with them this summer, but I doubt he will.
