Album Notes & Community Reviews
The final independent release before their massive mainstream breakout, 'Kerplunk' is a rough, highly energetic document of defining pop-punk. Featuring Tre Cool's debut on drums, the album balances incredibly fast, raw punk chords with passionate, playful, and deeply melodic songs of teenage longing.
