Pop punk, emo pop. Ni fu ni fa.

I like Pat Finnerty and this was a fun little EP. I don't think EPs should count for this list though. I want to give it a 4 because I enjoyed the 14 minutes of it, but docking a star because it's so short.

Definitly not the most out standing in it's genre, but was ok

Kind of a mini sampler pack of genres. I always appreciate brevity, increasingly rare in the digital age, but while a competent performance overall this seemed a little thin.

Not really my thing but not awful. 2.5 stars, rounding up to 3.

Good troll

Not sure what the motivation to nominate this was - I don’t know anything about this YouTuber except what I’ve read on Wikipedia this morning. It’s got a good poppy punk sound but there’s a lot better versions of that genre if that’s what you’re here for. Some of these songs seem pretty jokey (Blinds To Go Guy/BTGG and Don’t Click The Link). Probably the best song was the title track. I don’t get why this is here…

Not on Amazon and only one track on YouTube.

The Simple Plan EP, 14 minutes of generic emo pop. There's apparently a convoluted backstory as to why this was created in the first place, let alone submitted to this list, but hey, it's bang average and didn't waste my time, 2/5.

This has got to be a troll pick, right?

August is Falling = Pat Finnerty, a youtuber creating a series called "What Makes This Song Stink". One of the songs that he really hates is "Kryptonite". I don't particularly like this song either, but to keep repeating you hate it, is a bit childish. "Kryptonite" is a boring and uninteresting generic rock song. And that is the problem with this album, The Simple Plan. It is a rather generic and unoriginal pop-punk and emo album. Sounds a lot like Blink-182 and other end of 1990s beginning of 2000s artists. And it sounds dated too. If you blame other for making mediocre music then you will have too make a damn good album yourself to make a point. This album does not do that and will get the same treatment in "What Makes This Album Stink". One star for the effort.

Bringing out 2004 garbage in 2022, not for me. Almost feels like a bad parody album. One positive it was short
