I have to admit that normally I am not a big horns fan. It really has to take the song to another level for it to do anything for me. Unfortunately there is no evidence of that happening on this release. The back-up singers add a bit of texture here and there, but that doesn't help too much when the songs are so unremarkable. And why have a song called "Not Fucking Around" and then edit it out on the back label? Afraid that Wal-Mart will not carry it? If you like Sugar Ray or Mad Caddies you may like this record. But I think I would rather drink at the adult's table this go round.
