With their high-energy melodies, undeniable hooks and shout-it-out-loud choruses, Simple Plan - Pierre Bouvier (vocals), Jeff Stinco (lead guitar), David Desrosiers (bass, backing vocals), Sebastien Lefebvre (guitar, backing vocals), Chuck Comeau (drums) - are unquestionably one of the most exciting young bands for 2003. The Montreal-based punk quintet has spent the past two years knocking out crowds with storming gigs alongside such bands as Sum 41 and Blink-182. Now comes their eagerly awaited debut album. Produced by Arnold Lanni (Our Lady Peace, Finger Eleven), 'No Pads, No Helmets...Just Balls' features 12 irresistible anti-anthems of adolescent alienation. Exuberant and imaginative, it's sheer punk rock fun. Includes the single 'I'm Just A Kid'.
