This album's been out for a few months now, but I just got it so I decided I'd make a contribution to Nubblies and write a review, this will follow the format of previous reviews written by other Nubblies members; however this will not come close to being on the same level as their reviews.

Track 1 - Magic Bus (Intro)
This is the introduction to the CD. It's starts out with a stupid little kid singing the A,B,C song, when along comes the magic bus, Daddy X yells some shit out of the window and the kid climbs aboard the bus, counting down to the start of the first song...

Track 2 - Sleepers
Wake up, wake up, you are sleeping, wake up

This song is basically a "we're back" song. This is clear as Johnny Richter says in the begining of the song:

Remember me? You don't? You will now
It also was made to spit in the face of those who doubted them as rappers. Since they're white and from the suburbs. Once again Johnny Richter says:

Fuck everybody who said this shit here would never happen, now who's laughin? You said we never make it by rappin, but you was dead wrong this song is made to strictly prove a point

And, as in all of their songs, references to smoking marijuana are made frequently. All around good track.


Track 3 - Full Throttle
No turnin back now we going out full throttle, puffin crazy mad herb with heands on the bottle, we some stoners reeking havoc and we aint no role models - no turnin back now

This track is basically thoughts about getting where they are at, and how they can't stop now, it has kind of a punk/hip hop feel to it, kinda like it. Not a bad track all around, but not the best, kind of empty.

Track 4 - 4-2-0
Wanna take a guess about what this song is about? Yeah, good guess.

Ya know I got 2 states of mind, stoned and asleep, First I hit the sweet leaf, and then I have nice dreams

Another example:

"we got all types” – At 4-2-0 yeah our clocks is always altered - “we talkin pounds” These anti-hero’s are just here to serve you proper - “Roll that shit up” So leave those blessings right up here upon the alter - “pass it around” at 4-2-0 everybody’s burnin Ganja

This track has a nice beat to it, I like it.

Track 5 - Big Bank (skit)
This next one is a skit, I agree with one of my other fellow Nubblies members that skits are a waste, funny at first, them bothersome. Oh well, this one has some stupid fucker talking about a guy stealing shit, getting beat by the police, sueing, and getting alot of money, he uses "mother fuckin" alot. Gay.

Track 6 - Enjoy
Track 6 talks about how shit can happen in life. One day you're sittin on top, next day you're fallin up fast.

So enjoy my good friends, may these good times last, cuz in this lifetime they come and go to fast, one day you're sittin on top, next day you're fallin up fast, so enjoy my good friends, may these good times last

Definatly a good track, chorus especially has a good beat to it.

Track 7 - Positive Vibes
Quite possibly my favorite song on this CD. It has such a good beat to it, and it's uplifting, I don't know, but when I listen to this song I get in a better mood, it just makes me feel good. I highly recommend it for downloading. It mainly talks about being positive in the worst of times, and just be happy with life.

We need some positive vibes for these rainy days. Let the sun come out keep push these clouds away. We need some positive vibes life’s for fun so go and play. Let the sunlight in, brighten up your day.

No need to get loud .. messin with others, stressin’ your brother, it’s time to uncover. Time to choose another path you see, cause the road most traveled’s negativity. Put your fist down (fist down), throw your hands in the air. Respect yourself, be somebody who cares. Don’t let life get you down, don’t feel abused. Keep a positive view unto yourself be true.

A great song with a good message.

Track 8 - Zero Tolerance
Another punk/hip-hop song, I still kinda like it. It's mainly about how the war on drugs is a bunch of shit.

The war on drugs, is a war on me, and if its not then, let me be, home of the brave, land of the free. Its just a plant so let freedom ring.

You know how much they spent in the war on drugs simply last year? Eleven-Billion Dollars straight down the drain.

Not one of my most favorite tracks, but still it's of good quality.

Track 9 - Float Away
This track is mainly about how days just float away, and remising about the past and thinking about where they came from.

Every time I close my eyes I start to drift away - Thinkin bout some days gone by how time just floats away - every time I hear that song puts a smile on my face - brings me back to good friends and times that money cant replace.

Not one of my favorites, nice upbeat song though.

Track 10 - Pot Head (skit)
Another skit. Has anyone seen the movie "Meet the Parents"? Well this skit basically mocks the part where the dad asks focker if he's a pot head. It's actually kind of funny, got the same guy who says mother fuckers and mother fuckin alot. Moving on...

Track 11 - Pushin' Limits
Explains how they're just going to keep moving on, going all out on what they do.

We’ll probably, waste away, and pay this price for livin - Your probably gonna miss us when were dead and were gone - We don’t see yesterday, tomorrows in our vision, we take it to the limit, and we keep movin on… Pushin Limits

We're gonna live fast, we're gonna die young!

Again, not one of my favorites. Decent though.

Track 12 - Pull, Pull (skit)
Again, skit, useless. It's got the same dumbass saying, "You gonna hit some weed in this mutha fucka!" Gay.

Track 13 - Rest Of My Life
This is another excellent song. It basically talks about how they're not going to stop with their toking habits, and continue forever.

I'm gonna smoke weed, for the rest of my life...some people gave in but I aint givin up this fight, I'm gonna smoke weed, for the rest of my life, see I'm in love with Mary Jane I'm gonna make her my wife.

It talks about their philosophical beliefs pertaining to pot.

...understand these are natures laws, my creator had visions in the things he saw...

Definatly a good song, it just sounds good...

Track 14 - Living In Fear
This track talks about society, laws, police, judges, politicians and other things or people that are crooked, ignorant, greedy and/or distorted.

Livin in fear, fear of their cops, fear of their jails, fear of their laws, livin in fear, fear of their plan, fear of their guns, fear of there hand - Livin in fear, fear of their hate, fear of their boots, night sticks, n-mace, Fear of their power, ignorance and greed, fear of their laws and the hate they breed - “Fear Not”

Track 15 - Sub-Noize Rats
I fucking hate this song. Fuck it to hell, I don't know what it's about and I don't even give a shit. Fuck kmk for even making this song.

Track 16 - Strange Daze
Remember, only losers use drugs. Brought to you by the Stoners Who Care

That starts the song off, kind of funny to me.

Everything looks the same - but everything feels so differently - and I don’t know if its just all in my head, or if I’m losin my sanity - My smokin my drinkin is foggin my thinkin that’s what they all keep tellin me - and faces-n-places keep changin erasin, and everything feels so strange to me

Ehh...this songs basically talks about getting fucked up. Not that great...

Track 17 - Tangerine Sky
Great song, mainly talks about losing your hate. I really like beat to this song.

Say goodbye to a tangerine sky, say hello say hello to tomorrow - when you say goodbye to a tangerine sky you lose your pain, lose your fear, lose your sorrow

Another one of the best songs on this CD. In my humble opinion.

Track 18 - Built To Last
This has got D-Loc rappin in it, basically talking about a bunch of bullshit. Only reason I'm not cursing their name for this song is simply because I like the chorus:

Time, keeps on slippin through that hour glass - I - I need to rip another vapor blast. Why do all these people keep on talkin trash. Kottonmouth was built to last -you know that we was built to last

Yeah, not that good.

Track 19 - Waking Dream
Hmm, mixed feelings about this one. It's really relaxing, well, parts of it are. Others are real loud. The downside to it is the fact that it sounds like a bunch of hippie, enviromentalist bullshit...I still like it, sorta.

The earth the wind the sky the sea the birth the life the air we breathe- The truth
the lies the in between the hate the love the waking dream


All and all, good song...sorta.

Track 20 - Soul Surfin'
All about searching for a girl that is actually not a bitch I guess is the best way to explain it.

Soul surfin in pretty blue waters. Waitin for the day that I could just call her, Soul surf Soul surfin, I’m all by myself I don’t need a girl that cares about wealth

Kind of punkish, kind of like it.

Track 21 - Endless Highway
Another song about reminising about their days, talking about life.

Livin life on the endless Highway lost miles in between - If we never saw the world tomorrow we’d go out smokin green - you cant sell it if you never bought it there’s a price to chase this dream - Livin life on the endless Highway lost miles in between

Second verse talks about getting pulled over by the cops, and it's a little story about that...

I like this song alot, especially the chorus. Come to think of it, I really like the choruses to almost all of the songs...

Track 22 - Light It Up
Last track. Slow song, not too bad. Talks about friendship and shit like that. I'd talk more but I'm fucking sick of doing this goddamn review. But it's not a bad song, trust me. Not great either though...

Well that's it for my first in-depth review, if you think my interpretations about songs were incorrect, or stupid, fuck you, and by all means try to it yourself. Oh and fuck you again.

Overall Rating(on a scale of 1 to 10)8

Sounds alot more peaceful than I remember of the Kottonmouth Kings... course I never listened to them, my friend did. Do you listen to Twiztid at all? I ask because that same friend also listened to them, there was this one song where one line was like "I jump on your back, I-I-I needs no saddle I just sit on my nut sack."... that song cracked the shit out of me... the chorus was something like "Who's going next? I'm dying to see, spin the bottle baby and give it to me." which was actually good cuz these girls with were singing it. From what I remember they were alot more like ICP though.

Yeah...there's actually alot of peacefulness in it, maybe b/c they're much more burnt out, but I don't know.

There's still cursing, actually more than previous CD's, at least it seems like that to me. There's still alot of negativity in it.

It's also got more punk/hip hop songs, rather than just hip-hop.

yeah i noticed the punk/hip-hop thing, that's something that hasn't been done much... aside from sum41, and that's not even accurate cuz they really only rapped in that one song, they're obviously punk.

Stabmaster - No, but I've wanted to get ahold of one of their CDs, I checked Sam Goody but they didn't have anything...

Lethal - fuck you, like I said, if you have a problem with my review lick my nuts, I gave it an 8, b/c I dont think there's a cd that is a 10, only thing that could be better than an 8 is an eminem cd, which might make a 9.

I d/led a lot of their shit a while ago and gave it to Orgazmo... I doubt he still has it though. same style but much more political. if you like the punk shit kottonmouth does, you should pick up anything by humble gods.

Yeah you should try just ordering them, Karma has a good ordering system... I know it's a fucking pain in the ass but you can never find shit in Warsaw, fucking blows dong.

Sam goody has an electronica section that's like, WOW, a whole two rows, and it's filled with trance compliation BULLSHIT.

And they mark up their prices wrong all the time, fucking wankers.

It was a reference cocknuts. Their cds are not actually 10s. Good, but no where near a 10. Actual value of cd, 6.

Alright, so it was a "reference" to what? exactly? Also, I was wondering why you gave the cd a 6...have you heard the cd?
