Yours Truly is an album by the American hardcore punk band Sick of It All. It was released in 2000 on Fat Wreck Chords.
Critical reception AllMusic wrote: "Pure grit and growl swirl among speed metal guitar licks and thunderous percussion, Sick of It All twists the new millennium punk revival backward to achieve what once was an intimidating scene for music."
Ox-fanzine stated "On "Yours Truly," the band takes a somewhat more rock-oriented and raucous approach—"America" is a prime example of this. There are also plenty of sing-along moments; "Turn My Back" alone is sure to trigger a deafening crowd response and really rock the house during live shows."
Wall of Sound called it "possibly their best album" adding After the somewhat disappointing ‘Call To Arms’ this is a real welcome return. Powerful songs like ‘Hands Tied Eyes Closed’ & ‘District’ sees their patented hardcore formula shine but other songs like ‘America’ & ‘Souvenir’ actually show a certain tunefulness creeping into Lou Koller’s holler. And the thing is it sounds so good you wonder why he didn’t introduce it years ago."
