"Lagwagon really impressed me to say the least, I totally give these guys props for making excellent punk on "Double Plaidinum". They are experienced, and obviously talented musicians. Which is why they sound so tight together. The songwriting is quite good as well, and there are plenty of re-listenable songs too. However, I do think it was a BIT overhyped by the reviewers at this web-site, there are a few real yawners on this CD. I also do not think it is "The best punk album ever," like many people say. Don't get me wrong though, Lagwagon is definately a great band. Also, if you like these guys, you should definately check out similar punk group "Craig's Brother," I like them even more than Lagwagon. You should buy this CD if you are a fan of well-put-together punk rock."

Ja, it's good

"although this a damn good CD, i just can't help feel it's a bit forced and disjointed and the songs are quality but not legends. if you want good lagwagon try hoss, it kicks. I STILL GIVE IT 5 STARS COS IT IS WAY BETTER THAN 90% OF THE S$#T THAT LIVES AND BREATHES IN THE WORLD TODAY. OH AND GET HOLD OF SOUTH AFRICAN PUNK, IT COULD DO WITH THE EXPOSURE."

"If You've never heard of Lagwagon, you should have. They are simply one of the best punk bands around today. Thier guitar style is very much like NOFX yet they have thier own sound. The best song on the album is probably Choke as it combines speed chnges amazing guitar riffs and harmonies. Double Pladinum was the first Lagga album I bought and is probably the best (along with Lets Talk About Left Overs) Most of the album is soft punk with a lot of tune and harmonies, unlike trashed, which is mainly metal and fast punk. If you a young punk fan looking for some hot melodies, then you must buy this album."
