Wrought with paradoxical lyrics fuming like an angry smokestack, The Distillers' major-label debut "Coral Fang" is a statement from start to finish. Needless to say, this is not the album anyone would have expected Sire to be resuscitated to release.

Misrepresent and face arrest

While some students may have friends who are 21 and older, many use fake IDs for their liquor purchases. It may be thrilling to pass for a 21-year-old, but D.C.'s penalties for those caught with fake IDs can easily detract from that excitement.
