"... a Y2K punk band, a fourth generation group who cherishes a clean attack as much as self-expression and who have never sneered at a mainstream wanting to get a little wild. All of these ideas feed into Youth Authority, a record that gleams but also roars, an album that still feels the pull of adolescent rebellion even as middle age sentimentality begins to descend. This may mean the record isn't perfect - the slower stuff often turns sticky - but the group wear their heart on their sleeves and, somehow, that tendency is more endearing as the Maddens turn into middle age warriors".

"It's a decidedly uncool record from a band that's long since stopped caring about these things, and that's what makes its heart-swelling highlights possible. Good Charlotte have nothing left to prove, and they've earned the authority to finally have fun with their freedom".

"Vurdering: C-" - "The so-called "emo revival" that's been taking place in the last few years is in the process of shifting listener's expectations of what a once-dated genre can do, what it can be and say, how it can make people feel. Maybe it's just a malt beverage-induced dream to think that a band like Good Charlotte could or should do the same".
