Honestly I'm not enjoying this as much as I thought I would. Everything is top notch, the songs, the melodies, the performances, the lyrics. A kind of quality effort that isn't granted for a band this far in their career. The only things that are holding me back are the squeaky clean, high-pitched, heavily compressed sounds in the mix and production. I don't know, maybe I need to spend more time with the record and dive deeper. Anyway, I'm happy and glad that one of my top 3 artist of all time is back and here to stay. It is truly a beautiful feeling when a band from your teenage years grow up and evolve beside you.

Open secret they hated the finished mix on this for years, they've said nothing about SC but probably not out of the question

For me, this album is going make a great companion piece to Southern Air.

This was the biggest moment of discovery for me on my first listen. It finally has the atmosphere it needed.

Shoutout to the reverb on Dan's vocals on the title track that they needed all along. This is like a brand-new experience and I'm so fucking happy the black sheep of their catalogue gets its moment.

Going to see the first 30 minutes of a movie and then having to wait months to pay to see the rest (while rewatching 30 minutes of movie) seems like hell to me.

Still my favorite here, but the whole run from “honestly, I” through that track is top notch.

There was an interview recently (maybe even the teaser video for the reissue?) where Dan said that they were on tour when they got the mixes back, and he was really depressed at the time and didn't really have the time or energy to change anything. Steve Evetts even called him and said they shouldn't release it with that mix.

Dang that’s unfortunate. You’d think after how well TGG did that they’d have enough leeway to push deadlines to complete their vision

Did they ever give context on why they had NCTH (and SC) sound like they do? Was a preference or a narrative choice?

They need to come out with a Spider-Man 4 and have the soundtrack be full of the same artists from the original trilogy.

Whoa this sounds so good (just the one song on YouTube). You can actually hear guitar parts that were so buried before. Vocal harmonies? Cymbals? This feels like it will be the definitive version.

I'm going to guess that "City of Angels" will get a prominent TV show or movie soundtrack feature.

caught this tour last night. it was their first time headlining Portland and was nearly sold out (300 cap). PONY was great, while Truth Club did nothing for me (solid, just not for me). Pool Kids musicianship was good, but Christine’s vocals left a little to be desired. she didn’t necessarily sound bad, but she also didn’t match the quality performance of the album. however, this is week four of the tour, and it’s probs difficult to focus on vocal performance when sweaty and shredding ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ i don’t fault her for it, her stage presence more than made up for any slight deficits.

If Better Days is the WYTTSY of this reunion, then the next record is going to be fucking insane. The bar has been set incredibly high. Such a gift that we have this band back, and as revitalized as they are.
