Possibly the best album by undoubtedly the best pop-punk band ever. Not that their other albums aren't good, because they're all great. This one is just exceptional. Many people have a negative view of pop-punk (and rightfully so, in many cases), but The Ergs! could almost singlehandedly redeem the entire genre on their own.
The Ergs! are reasonably well-known, but not nearly well-known enough. It's high-energy, intentionally geeky pop-punk done perfectly. Tragically, they broke up in 2008.
I read a review a while ago that said, "If you don't like The Ergs!, then you're an asshole." I would be inclined to agree.
