Album Description: Japanese only SHM-CD (Super High Material CD - playable on all CD players) pressing includes bonus material. Universal. 2008.
Amazon.com's Best of 2001: If you liked this bunch's self-titled debut, you will certainly dig the dozen raunchy tunes that populate Time Bomb. Wiry, wild Joshua Todd--a classic blues-belting, tattoo-bearing frontman--possesses a gift for irony that, while not easily gleaned, does exist. Behind him, guitars grind away, while big production by John Travis (Monster Magnet, Sugar Ray) helps create a believable street-grit feel that recalls early Guns N' Roses. The Sex Pistols-like "Place in the Sun" is a winner, as is the full-tilt "Frontside" and the suitably nasty "Porno Star." There are even a couple decent ballads! At its hard core, Time Bomb is that rare breed--an in-your-face, aggressive rock album that shows off a wonderful (and too rare) punk rock sensibility. --Katherine Turman

Time Bomb is often viewed as Buckcherry's sophomore slump, coming between more successful efforts with bigger hits.
This criticism is partially true. Time Bomb] didn't produce the hits of either their self-titled debut or the more recent Fifteen. But aside from that fact, it's a very strong album, full of hard rockin' tracks, as well as quality softer songs that give the album a good deal of balance. This all adds up to an album that has some of Buckcherry's hardest hitting tracks, such as "Whiskey in the Morning," "Frontside," and "Ridin'," as well as some great ballads (so to speak), in "Open My Eyes" and "You." Of course, it's not all the two extremes. Straight ahead rockers ("Underneath") are found throughout.
Really, it's a very cool album if you're a fan of hard rock. It may lack some of the hits of Buckcherry's other two albums, but it's far from the failure that some claim it to be.

Time Bomb-Buckcherry *****
If you heard the debut album then you know what to expect. With their hard rocking California style and their punk leanings Buckcherry have once again released an album that will please even the hardest of rock credicts. This was the bands second album before their nearly eight years hiatious causing phenomonal frontman Joshua Todd to persue a solo project which while promising was nothing compared to the power of Buckcherry. Keith Neilson laid low over the next couple of years until Buckcherry reformed in 2005 with all new members except Neilson and Todd for the album 15 (also recomended).
Partys, durgs, alcohol, getting laid, and living the rock n' roll lifestyle are the main subjects of this album. From the start of the album with 'Frontside' you can tell the band means buisness. It's a killer song with high energy, and great way to start the album. Next is the semi-hit single 'Ridin' which is one of the bands best songs and a concert favorite. A great party song! 'Time Bomb' the title track is exactly that...a bomb waiting to blow. In your face from start to finish and some great guitar work from Keith and Yogi. It's easy to see why this is the title track. 'Porno Star' is about what else..."big 'blank, mother blank porno stars." Great bluesy guitar playing here and some great vocals from Todd. 'Place In The Sun' is very Sex Pistols esq. It is done well but the song could have been better. 'Helpless' is a great song, ... Read More

The label needs to hurry up and get this album back into print, hopefully these guys are on the rise again. Timebomb is a solid sophomore effort for Buckcherry, I even prefer it to their first album. The highlights in my mind? Time Bomb and Porno Star both have great choruses, granted you don't buy the "clean" version I imagine. Slit My Wrists is great, and Whiskey in the Morning is just a good old fashioned rocker that I love about these guys. On the other hand, you can play Open My Eyes to get your girlfriend to shed a tear..lol.
