Overall GA review

• Needs charts table and genre of the album.

Added punk rock as the album's genre (as per reception section). Also, is it really necessary to add a table just for 2 US charts that are already mentioned in the promotion and release section? In my opinion, charts tables are only useful if the album in question has been commercially successful. --Niwi3 (talk) 20:44, 12 July 2017 (UTC)

Where is that on the commercial section? Well, I have seen with one, some people maybe just looking for that and don't want to read a whoel section. MarioSoulTruthFan (talk) 22:34, 12 July 2017 (UTC)

• Few errors to amend and some other picky stuff from my part. It will be GA in no time, on hold for seven days, good luck! MarioSoulTruthFan (talk) 17:44, 12 July 2017 (UTC)
