"Okay, so your interested in buying this cd? If you are, you have to buy it. Millencolin is one of my favorite bands, and this is some of their best work. The songs that are especially good on this cd are track #1 called "Bullion," and track #11 called "Softworld." Don't get me wrong, the whole cd is good, I mean, Millencolin does not write bad songs it's just that some songs are better then others. Well, I hope you buy it, and for those of you that aren't real familiar with punk, I will recommend some other bands to get you started. They are: Descendents, Good Riddance, Jughead's Revenge, Strung Out, and Bigwig. Well, I hope my recommendations help you. Bye"

"If I were going to be trapped on an island and could only take 3 things with me it would be Food, Water, and Millencolin's Life on a Plate. Yeah I'd need batteries and a CD player, but that's beside the point. No matter what album Millencolin does it's genius to say the least but nothing beats Life on a plate. Not that there's anything wrong with that, I mean asking Millencolin to make another Life on a plate is like asking Stephen Spielberg to make another E.T. No matter how many times I listen to this album I can't get tried of it. Every song is just so good and catchy. It's just one of those albums that you can sing along with the whole way threw. Every song from Bullion all the way threw Airhead is just so genius, I just can't even put it in words how great this album is. This is one of those albums that changed my view of music forever, and if you don't like it then you suck!"
You can't get much better than this.

"In the realm of pop-punk, this is one of the most landmark albums out there. This album was out before anyone ever heard of Sum41, so you can't compare anything there. This album was out before Blink182 hit it big with their song "Dammit." This album introduced America to Millencolin, four Swedish skate-punks with a love for all things punk rock in the mid 1990's, and they immediately placed themselves among the already established greats (those greats primarily on Epitaph records). The punk rock is fast and melodic and beautifully harmonized, the ska is quick, jumpy, and keeps you moving. Personal note, the ska songs off of this album were the first ones without horns that I could really enjoy. And plus, Nikola's voice is so strange you can't help but love it. It's THE key thing in this band that really sets them apart. To be honest, the first time I heard them I thought he had cerebral paulsey ("
Solid punk rock

"I first heard Bullion on Punk-o-rama vol.2 and at once i knew that Millencolin gonna be one of my fave bands. So i picked up their album "Life on a plate". Darn, how can punk rock be so good? It got everything: catchy tunes, killing riffs, undisputable vocals....Lyrics also kick. So if u as myself are a fan of melodic fast softcore(ok pop punk) and u don't own this album (which is just strange) run to your local music store and get it...I mean it's so good Epitaph could even offer money back guarantee!!!!!!"
