talentless mtv friendly crap by realitysource (UK)  1 Stars

Imagine taking all those terrible bands like simple plan, good charlotte and avril lavigne and rolling them into one. Not a nice image well thats Gob for you. This band a) seems to have a serious lack of originality or creativity b) can barely get past power chords or poseur punk cliches c) are trying too hard to be sum 41. You only have to listen to 'Give Up the Grudge' it is practically a total rip off of sum 41's nothing on my back.
The only people this album will appeal to is a bunch of stupid 12 year old kiddies who think this makes the rebellious or something the rest of us true music fans are just left wondering how long can these wannabe's continue to spew out this cloned teeny pop rubbish?

The evolution of gob... by xTragedyxBrittanyx (Echo Park, Ca)  4 Stars
January 28, 2005
Thru out the years, I've been following the candian punk-pop foursome known as gob. This is what i've found; In 1995, they released a debut called "too late...no friends". It was your basic mid-90's punk album, with little to no melody, short songs, below average production, and poor song structure.
In 98', the band released a follow up called "how far shallow takes you". This time around, the songs were a bit longer and had slightly more melody, and the band's transformation from "punk" to "punk-pop" was already underway.
After about three years of being off the scene, gob returned once more in early 2001 with "the world according to gob", an album which owed more to Britney spears and the current Blink 182 than it did to early Green Day or the Ramones. The songs were overly poppy, the production was super slick, and the lyrics were varied and covered more topics than just potty humor and teen rebelion. It was A HUGE step in the right direction, with the boys producing an album as strong as "enema of the state" and "all killer no filler". In my opinion, it's their best record to date.
Unfortunatly tho, even with a pop sound and modern lyrical content, gob was still no where near being as big as Simple plan or blink, so one year after releasing "the world according", they decided to go on tour with fellow canadian punk brats Sum 41. The tour gave them the opportunity to impress Arista's Executive producer LA reid, so much in fact that he sent the boys of gob into the recording studio the following year to create...
"Foot in mouth disease". To be honest, its a bit MORE "punk" than "the world according to gob" , but not by much, and with producer Mark Trombino (blink 182, Diffuser, The Starting Line, Finch ect.) and labelmates Avril Lavine and Wakefield, the difference isn't easily noticed. It features 14 songs that run between 2-5 minutes on average, and are all really catchy and singable (the formula for "the world according to gob" was basically duplicated). If you're into melodic, catchy pop-punk, I'd recommend getting "the world according to gob" first and then "foot in mouth". DO NOT pick up "too late...no friends" or "How far shallow takes you" unless you actually prefer hardcore punk to pop-punk.

i love this and i don't even like this kinda stuff by resurectedhatred (NB Canada) 5 Stars
December 25, 2004
i'm usually into linkin park and lostprophets but this cd caught my eye. my uncle had left me borrow all of his cds and this was one of them. the only songs i had heard by Gob were the singles "for the moment" "i hear you calling" and "give up the grudge" so i was willing to give it a listen.
Lemon-aid - 10/10 - a good starting song. this song pretty much sums up how the rest of the cd will be.
I've Been Up These Steps - 10/10 - this song freakin rulz! just listen to the opening and you'll be hooked.
Oh! Ellin - 6/10 - i really don't like this song. it just seems so flat to me. god knows why they made it a single.
I Cut Myself, Too - 9/10 - this song is good to get back some momentum afetr suffering through Oh! Ellin.
Fed Up - 100/10 - THE greatest song ever. a little slower but it FREAKING RULES!!!!
Ming Tran - 10/10 - an awesome song. if you havent already seen the vid then you can just visualize what it would be like.
When Life Gets Boring... - 9/10 - really sweet guitar but the chorus coulda been better.
Give Up The Grudge - 10/10 - obviously you've seen the video for this song so theres no reason for me to talk about it.
Bones - 7/10 - i don't care for this song all that much. the chorus sucks.
This Evil World - 9/10 - good verses and guitar.
I Hear You Calling - 7/10 - this song wasn't on the cd my uncle had... meh. i don't really like it anyway.
Bully - 8/10 - this song actually has some screaming but they try to drown it in the music so you can't really hear it.
Cold Feet - 8/10 - meh it's okay i guess.
Everybody's Getting Hooked Up - 9/10 - SWEET GUITAR! bu that's about it.
DVD - 4/10 - now comon. if your gonna put a DVD with a cd at least have the intension of putting behind the scenes footage on it. i don't give a flying crap about their old videos. and who wants to listen to old song on a DVD player!?

I dont know..sounds awesome to me. by TheWarInside (Seattle) 5 Stars
February 23, 2004
Im new to GOB and I love this CD. I dont know what people are complaining about. I plan on buying some of their older stuff. Maybe its just the fact that Im a fan of many genres of music. Just like every CD it has certain songs that you like better than others for whatever reason. But just look what everyone is saying about these guys. Everyone seems to like different songs the best. One person will say this or that that songs sucks while someone else will sya those same songs are their favorites. The fact is that no song on here is bad. For me every song is enjoyable but ofcourse I have favorites like everyone else. Just because its not your favorite doesnt mean it sucks.If youre the kind of person that buys CDs for one song and doesnt have time to give the entire album a chance then skip this. If you look at songs like individual pieces of art I think you will really enjoy this album. They have really good lyrics and are really catchy. You can hear alot of different sounds in their music if youd just listen with an open mind. I STRONGLY suggest buying this CD if you are fans of Sum 41, Blink 182, Unwritten Law, Millencolin and Simple Plan.
