Time Bomb is the second studio album by American rock band Buckcherry. It was produced by John Travis [1] and released on March 27, 2001 by DreamWorks Records. It is the band's only album to feature guitarist Yogi Lonich and is the last album with the original line-up.

Release and reception

The album spawned two singles, "Ridin'" and "Slit my Wrists". The lyrics are sleazier and more sordid than on the band's first album, suggesting considerable rock n' roll excess within the band at the time. The bonus track (untitled on the sleeve, but officially called "Open My Eyes") suggests an end to this due to a successful relationship. The album is currently out of print as of June 2010.
