"I would never buy a record with that title. I don’t care if “Stairway to Heaven,” “Running with the Devil,” frickin’ “Iron Man” and “Master of Puppets” were on it. Anybody who has this in their collection....an LP maybe, fine. Maybe your parents bought it for you or you got it at a garage sale when you were a kid because it was a dollar. If you actually have this on CD or bought thins on iTunes, you should lined up against the wall and executed mafia style. And Kevin Cronin, if I ever see you, you’re going to pay the price for this one."

"This is just very sophomoric and very much beneath Blink 182’s talent level. It’s just so stupid. 'Take off your pants and jacket. Ha ha ha! See what we did?.Hee hee hee.' And it’s done. You know it’s hardly like a classic album title, like a Darkside of the Moon or Led Zeppelin IV – there’s four versions of this crazy record. You know Ride the Lightning is such a great visual image. Take Off Your Pants and Jacket is not a great mental image. It’s the last thing I want to think of when I think of Blink 182 is them dropping their trau on stage and having a circle jerk."

"You can’t pronounce it. You don’t know what it means. It sucks. It’s Extreme trying to be cool and funky and just being completely cryptic and archaic. I didn’t buy the record (and I have every other Extreme record) just because of the title."
