Product Description
'How To Get Everything You Ever Wanted In Ten Easy Steps' is the third album from Brighton-based indie-punkers The Ordinary Boys. Sporting a new streamlined sound that has as muchin common with J-Pop and Girls Aloud as it does with Madness and The Specials, this album marks a true progression for the band, and one that won't alienate their committed fanbase. Includes the singles 'Lonely At The Top' and 'Nine 2 Five'.

GREAT TUNES THAT WILL STAY IN YOUR HEAD.
This is by far the best Ordinary Boys album out of the three.It took me a while to get into it but now I love it.Best track on here is "Great big rip off" What an anthem.Should have been a single.Sid,Burton.
awful
this album was there worst 1 by a mile i hope there next 1 is a lot better
there are so much more better bands like Little Man Tate, The Rifles and obviously the Arctic Monkeys or even the pidgeon Detectives
At Last...
Those reviews below are VERY cynical aren't they? Bless 'em.
The Ordinary Boys produced two rather derivative and uninspiring albums that defined my expectations of "How to Get Everything You Ever Wanted in Ten Easy Steps". Prior to this release, there was little I could do to argue with the usual criticism levelled against their work. Yes, it did largely sound like a Jam tribute band. Yes, it was dull and pedestrian. Therefore I was unexcited about the prospect of listening to any more of their oeuvre. With this album, I have been pleasantly surprised. Finally, The Ordinary Boys have found their own identity. Preston now sound like Preston, rather than a Weller analogue. The lyrics are witty and alive and the tunes are there too. The production is fresh and never lapses into early 80s parody, which is pleasing. Preston has defined his band as Pop, free from the narrow confines of Indie, and this album is Pop at a top notch quality.
