Amazon.com Buckcherry reestablish their status as one of the most raucous and delightfully dirty-minded acts in the industry today with 15, a truly bombastic rock & roll blast. Vocalist Josh Todd leads this high-energy act into battle with the colossal one-two-three punch of "So Far," "Next 2 You," and "Out Of Line," each anchored by the weighty rhythm section of drummer Xavier Muriel and bassist Jimmy Ashhurst, then elevated by the Olympian guitar attack of Keith Nelson and Stevie D. But while an appropriate levity prevails on those tracks and others--such as "Crazy Bitch," "Broken Glass," and the good time stomp "Brooklyn"--the band also find time to show a more sensitive and mature side with the hit-worthy and country-inflected "Carousel," plus the unapologetically melancholy "Sorry." If there's a fault to be found on 15 it doesn't reveal itself easily, and if there's a fault to be found with Buckcherry it is perhaps that they imbue listeners with a zest for living. But that clearly is no crime. --Jedd Beaudoin

WOW - REAL HARD ROCK IN THE 21st CENTURY! April 24, 2006 38 out of 41 found this review helpful
Five years and three band members removed from their sloppy sophomore album, Buckcherry is back. The time spent re-charging themselves and re-filling band vacancies was definitely time well spent. Fifteen, named for the number of days it took the band to record it, is a bundle of energy and testosterone that harkens back to the stadium rock sounds of Guns N' Roses and Aerosmith. Fifteen is an aggressive blend of southern blues and classic rock, with charismatic vocals. Replacing a drummer (Xavier Muriel), guitarist (Stevie D.), and bassist (Jimmy Ashhurst) may sound like a completely different band. It is, but in a good way. The changes are not as drastic as INXS' hiring of J.D. Fortune. Buckcherry's two founding members, Josh Todd and Keith Nelson, remain. The three new members energize the band, bringing energy and enthusiasm for the material that was absent from the last offering. Buckcherry has never sounded this solid. Tattooed lead singer, Todd's vocals have an enchantingly rambunctious quality; pulling listeners in from the first time you hear him utter a word.
Todd displays his vocal abilities proudly on "Everything". The soaring anthem's change from laid back to all out rocker allows Todd's vocals to shift from intimate to a classic stadium yowl. Strong vocals throughout the album captivate the listener from the distorted entrance of the storming "So Far" until the frantic conclusion of "Broken Glass". Thankfully, the band only slows down the party for one lighter-inducing rock ballad. "Sorry", co-written with Aerosmith's Marti Frederickson, serves up typical rock ballad material, rescued only by Josh Todd's Axl Rose quality vocals.
The album is overflowing with party music. Blues riffs float around the classic rock base, keeping the album from sounding dated. Trying to listen to songs like the enthralling "Next 2 You" without moving may prove futile. Todd groans, "I've been trying all night long / I've put up with your favorite songs all night" against charging blues riffs and a bustling beat. Returning rock to the principle themes of sex and women, "Crazy B*tch" provides the best hook on the album, begging for heavy strip club rotation - which it will most likely receive for years. The seething song churns along with pounding drums, enthralling riffs, and a volatile guitar solo all adding to the unforgettable (and unprintable) hook.
Fifteen's arrival at the start of spring is perfect timing; screaming for listeners to roll down the car windows and crank the volume. Recording the album in just fifteen days captures spontaneity and exuberance of playing a new song before over thinking and altering them. Sure, the album sounds like many stadium rock bands from years past, but it is easy to forgive the album's lack of innovation because of Buckcherry's sheer swagger and enthusiasm. Rock has not been this fun in a while.
I can't get past "Crazy Bitch", is that okay? May 2, 2006 12 out of 27 found this review helpful
Fighting. Drinking. Screwing. Cursing. Drugs. Buckcherry.
The sound of the album is awesome. The production is slick, and Jason Todd puts the usual sh*tload of energy into his performance. Good rock. The first track rules, and the last track really f*ckin' rules. The middle tracks have some great moments in them too.
That's all fine, but. . . .I don't know, that song "Crazy Bitch" is just too much for even me. Its too much. I never want to hear that song again. It put a big ol' freakin' sh*t-stain on the whole thing for me. I feel pretty guilty even saying that, but that's how I feel.
But, whatever. I'm just one dude. The album is cool. Rock n roll. Check it out if you're curious. Buy it if you like rock. "Crazy Bitch," though. . . . . .I dunno.
Will please fans wanting an old-school album that rocks April 16, 2006 10 out of 12 found this review helpful
After a five year hiatus Buckcherry are back with "15," (2006) the band's third album.
"15" doesn't sound like a radical departure from the band's self-titled debut (1999) or "Time Bomb" (2001). It's the same mix of Guns N' Roses, Black Crows, and AC/DC that so defined the band's first two albums. Founding members Keith Nelson (guitar) and Josh Todd (vocals) are in their element and do what they do best-meat-and-potatoes, kick-ass rock n' roll.
"15" isn't terribly challenging or revolutionary, but if you're not looking for Rush or Axl's upcoming epic and merely want an old-school album that rocks, "15" will do the trick.

While all those pop-punk stars are whining about how hard it is to be half a man in this cruel, cruel world, Buckcherry are screwing their girlfriends. Great album
Buck is Back & Ready to Conquer! April 11, 2006 4 out of 8 found this review helpful
Walk don't run to buy this cd! The crew is back with their 3rd disc. The previous being Timebomb which was released 5 years ago.
The band consists of Josh Todd the tatted frontman, Keith Nelson guitar extraordinaire on lead, Stevie D. on rhythm/lead, Jimmy Ashurst (the smiley one) on bass & Xavier Muriel ("X") banggin' on the skins.
This cd is "5 out of 5 stars" & has everything you are looking for in a disc!
Summarizing,
It starts with the track "So Far", that grabs you from the start. It is fast, sleezy & furious (they usually start with this one in concert) the grinding dual guitars of Keith Nelson & Stevie D. shredd. "Next to You" is the 2nd cut on the disc is fun, fast & very radio friendly. reminds me of song similar to Jet's big hit. "Everything" is another radio friendly song that is slow, delicate, gentle & then "BAM" it takes off! "Sorry" is the big tender ballad that will take you to new heights. Then the big song on the disc is #7 "Crazy Bitch". This is the most fun you'll have in a song. It's sleezy, groovy, & makes you wanna take your clothes off! I hear it is the top song at every Strip Club in North America! This is the song that will catapult them. "Onset" is my favorite on this one. It's fast & melodic. I could listen to this over & over & I know you will too! Finally, "Broken Glass" will appeal to the "punk rockers". It is fast, loud & takes no prisoners. A total punk vibe.
So quit your job, cancel all appointments, drop the tv remote & GET THIS DISC & then go see them live! TRUST ME YOU WILL LOVE THIS.......6foot5
