Simple Plan – Simple Plan

In the early 2000s, Simple Plan made a name for themselves as an immature pop punk band with fun songs and a carefree attitude. Fans were in for a surprise when the band released their self-titled third studio album on February 12, 2008. Simple Plan represents a noticeable musical and thematic shift for the band - it was more alternative rock with straight pop as opposed to pop punk, and Pierre Bouvier sang about relationships more than teen struggles. The experimentation and new ideas helped make Simple Plan an impressive album without a single bad song. It launched the singles "When I'm Gone," "Your Love Is A Lie," and "Save You" (written about Pierre's brother's battle with cancer). Simple Plan reached number 14 on the Billboard 200 albums chart. 

Highlights on Simple Plan include "No Love," "Hanging On," "Your Love Is A Lie," and "Take My Hand."
