On their 1997 release, Dude Ranch, juvenile hardcore-pop band Blink 182 tickled the funny bone with an assortment of dumb sex jokes, off-color artwork, and between-song skits, including one of a dog drinking from a freshly peed in toilet. So, two years down the road, have the band matured at all? One look at the cover of Enema of the State, which features cover art of a tarted-up blonde nurse donning a rubber glove, provides the easy answer. Fortunately, Enema supports the humor with strong musicianship. The songs are more dynamic and multitempoed than those on Dude Ranch, sounding like a cross between the Descendents and Fountains of Wayne. And unlike the glut of alt-rock releases that offer one or two memorable songs, Enema is flush with instantly memorable melodies and ear-pleasing harmonies. Good, dirty fun--no more, no less. --Jon Wiederhorn

Blink 182 knew what they are doing........2006-12-29
Absolute pop-punk classic.......2006-09-25
Enema of The State is now considered a rock classic. From beginning to end, its one of the catchiest, most energetic, melodic, and loudest records ever. The lyrics range from hilarious (The Party Song) to heartfelt (Going Away To College), to a combination of both (Anthem).
Tom's powerchords are the loudest and crunchiest I've ever heard on a pop album, and his lead riffs are some of the simplelest but catchiest I've ever heard, and come on- what kid starting to learn guitar nowadays doesn't try to learn Adam's Song? Vocally his bratty voice fits songs perfect with him taking over the vocals on songs such as Dumpweed, Aliens Exist, Dysentary Gary, All The Small Things, Mutt, and Anthem. Mark plays bass very simply, but his tone is very clean and complements guitar and drums very well. His fills in the bridge of What's My Age Again? are perfect as well. Vocally Mark has a cleaner voice than Tom, which works well on the songs he sings- Don't Leave Me, Going Away To College, What's My Age Again, Adam's Song, The Party Song, and Wendy Clear. That brings us to Travis- but what hasn't been said about this guy already? He's f-ing amazing! His beats are incredibly fast and his fills are timed and calculated spot on. He's definetly got to be one of the greatest drummers of all time.
This record is just a straight up classic. Look at so many of the popular rock bands that emerged in the 2000's- Sum 41, Good Charlotte, Simple Plan, Yellowcard, My Chemical Romance, Fall Out Boy, Panic! At The Disco... Would any of these bands have been able to achieve so much popularity if blink hadn't kicked the doors of pop-punk wide open? I think not. So whether your just chilling in your room, going on a road trip, or having a pool party- throw this record on and rock out, because it's perfect.

cool.......2004-09-08
this has 2 cds.
the first cd has all the tracks the normal version has plus four more: pathetic live, untitled live, josie live, and aliens exist live. pathetic and untitled on this cd are the same ones as on the whats my age again cd1. so they just took those two songs and put them on this cd. josie live is awsome and they sing an intro about christina applegate. alien's exist live is a good song but this one is kind of annoying because tom (on purpose) says all the words with a w at the beginning. for instance he goes "w'up all night long, w'and thier's something very wrong". that can get annoying.
the second disc is kind of stupid because it is the all the small things single, just in an enema of the state case. the songs are: all the small things (not live), dumpweed live, all the small things live, what's my age again live, and dammit live. the all the small things live and whats my age again are both live shows on the urethra chronicles movie, just on here you don't see them perform you just listen to them.
so if you have whats my age again cd1 all the small things and enema of the state then ythe only songs on these cds that you havn't heard are josie live and aliens exist live.
"w'im not like you guys"
Blinkin' rocking CD from the 182 crew.......2002-08-09
"Dumpweed," the two singles "What's My Age Again" and "All The Small Things" are , but the rest of the songs have such equal merit that they could just as well have been singles, plus they are distinguishable from each other. A goofily immature picture is painted in "What's My Age Again" on the protagonist turning on the TV just as the girl is ready for some sex. The immaturity of this guy is well-portrayed here.
The alien abduction/CIA conspiracies are explored in "Aliens Exist." Lyrically, there are some key lines that elicit a raised and impressed eyebrow. "Going Out To College" is sung from the p.o.v. of a clumsy geek in college: "The world's an ugly place/but you're still beautiful to me." And the preceding line is a moment of awkward sincerity: "And I'm so unprepared, so here's your valentine/Bouquet of clumsy words, a simple melody" And in "Dysentery Gary," the frustration at losing a girl to a slimeball results in the lyric: "F--- this place, I lost the war, I hate you all, your Mom's a whore."
"Adam's Song" tackles the topic of suicide with lyrics veering from serious "I'm too depressed to go on/You'll be sorry when I'm gone" to goofy "Remember the time I spilled the cup/of apple juice in the hall."
Party life is the theme on "The Party Song" and "Anthem." Shallow, false image giving, game playing, 'look but you can't touch' girls are trashed in the former to my delight. Rebellion against inattentive parents are touched on in the latter. The four bonus live tracks on this import rival the energy of the MT&T show.
As for the bonus disc, it has "All The Small Things" and four live tracks. Like the other bonus live tracks on disc one, it offers a lot more of what the Mark, Tom, and Travis Show would be chock full of, such as Tom's trademark funny, pottie-mouthed dialogue. However, these live versions are of lesser calibre than even the bonus tracks on disc one. One funny point is raised on Tom's inability to remember their set. Mark tells him "That's the kind of s--t that gives you five more minutes of talking." Oh, so THAT's his secret.
Normally, a punk album ends being the same blast of sound and fury that around the fourth or fifth song, the viewer may tune out. Enema is so charged with such energy that it proves to be the exception to the rule, and that in itself is quite a feat. Great goin' guys! Oh, and extra points for cover girl Janine! She can examine me anytime!
This is the best cd in the whole wide world!.......2000-05-22
Amazing Live Work + the Great Studio Album.......2000-05-02
This Albums second CD is a live one, and Blink sure does an increadable job preforming. Check out Damnit on the live tract, it is really cool.
