Act Your Age

About Act Your Age

Act Your Age is the second album by the rock band Home Grown, released in 1998 by Outpost Recordings. It was the band's only album for a major label. It expanded their popularity and found them moving into a pop punk and pop rock direction musically. The album's most popular tracks were a new version of "Surfer Girl," a song which had originally appeared on their debut album That's Business and "Suffer" which also appeared on Geffen sampler Everything is Beautiful. Act Your Age would be the band's final recording with their original lineup, as guitarist Ian Cone left the band shortly after its release. The album contains a hidden track called "Too Many Stops" on track 15 after "Reflections." The song plays at 22:59 into the track and is followed by a 1-minute clip of the band members laughing uncontrollably. Act Your Age was Home Grown's first album to chart; reaching #24 on Billboard's Heatseekers in 1998. more »
