"Back 2 Base X" is the fifth studio album by American punk rock band Hed PE. Released on June 6, 2006, it is the band's first release on Suburban Noize Records. The album was influenced by classic punk bands such as the Sex Pistols and the Clash, [cite news |title=(HED)P.E Announces Co-Headlining Tour With Kingspade |url=http://www.thegauntlet.com/article/189/11183/(hed)pe.html |publisher="The Gauntlet" |date=January 5, 2008 |accessdate=2008-10-07 ] and was intended as a return to the basics of rock music, and did not rely as heavily on studio enhancement as previous releases.

Reception

"Back 2 Base X" peaked at #12 on the Top Independent Albums chart, #154 on the Top Internet Albums Chart and at #154 on the "Billboard" 200.

Allmusic's Rob Theakston wrote that "Back 2 Base X" suffers from the same problems as "Amerika": it tries to be conceptual in thought à la Tool and vicious in its political commentary à la Fugazi or System of a Down, but somehow falls short by sounding like an angry stoner on a soapbox. It won't win any new fans, but existing fans of (hed) pe's work won't be turning their backs away from the band in anger anytime soon, either."
