Album Notes & Community Reviews

MxPx's fourth album and major-label debut saw the band embracing a more polished and powerful sound, while still retaining their pop-punk energy and Christian-influenced lyrics. The title is a tongue-in-cheek reference to the fear of selling out or becoming irrelevant. The album was a commercial success, featuring the popular single 'I'm OK, You're OK' and further establishing MxPx as a prominent force in the late-90s punk scene.
