All American Rejects - Dirty Little Secrets Single Review

All-American Rejects
Dirty Little Secrets
Single Review

On the sliding scale of pop-punk, this is even further towards the pop end than even the likes of Blink 182. The secret formula can have no more that a 2% punk content for sure, with the remaining 98% being pure pop, but it is this blend that assures success.

Give this cheeky little track three listens, and it's got you. You'll be singing along at festivals all summer with a huge grin on your face. There may indeed be laws in some countries about having hooks this large and frequent during one song.

This is a driving, anthemic pop-punk classic, with a feel-good sound to rival Prozac.
