Pepper has been around almost 10 years now, and they have grown better and better with every album. Sure this album is not perfect, but it is their best release and seperates them from all those annoying connections to Sublime. I agree that "Kona Town" may have sounded similar to a Sublime record, but this album is no "Kona Town". Pepper has finally brought out their own, unique sound to "No Shame", and its a damn good one. I love the new direction that Pepper is taking, and hopefully more people will warm up to this great reggae/rock album.

All the tracks on this album are great, with the exception of "Like Your Style" and "Old Time Problem", both of which seem a little out of place. Peppers reggae beats are infectious and very well produced, like Green Hell and Crazy Love, and their more rock influenced songs are just as impressive, such as No Control and Wanted. The main thing to get out of this album is that Pepper has found their own, unique sound, one that seperates them from Sublime and is a step in the right direction. Pepper, congrats on a great release.
