"These Ones Are Bitter" is former Screeching Weasel and Riverdales frontman Ben Weasel's first album in five years. With "These Ones Are Bitter," Weasel demonstrates his characteristic lyrical insight and humor along with his uncanny knack for writing first-rate melodic punk songs - the album's 14 tracks attack the themes of broken hearts and love gone bad like so many sugar coated shotgun blasts. Produced by The All-American Rejects' Mike Kennerty (who also played guitar), the album features Dan Andriano (Alkaline Trio) on bass and Chris Gaylor (The All-American Rejects) on drums.
