Hey. Guys. Just want to say for everyone who loves City of Angels (I am so fucking pumped on the reception for this song) that something so so so so rad is going to happen with it. I don’t know when exactly, but holy shit. We are in an alternate timeline. It’s just the only explanation

"I want to believe we’ll be remembered for both the spark and the fire." I'm a little bit younger than the original group of listeners of Ocean Avenue, having only been 8 when it released, but your review hits so beautifully on how I'm viewing life and how I felt listening to this album last night for the first time. I'm learning to see life as a cumulative painting that treasures both past and present in a way I wasn't really capable of experiencing before. Weirdly, Yellowcard's album releases tend to coincide with really important moments in my life, and the trend continues with Better Days. It's a gift. Thanks for the great review!

Great review, but the second half of what you've written is incredible. From my college years through my 20's, I definitely didn't keep listening to a lot of artists that carried me through my teenage years. Only now am I going back and finding joy in a lot of those albums - including some Yellowcard ones like Southern Air and WYTTSY

“I built this house But it's not home I lost myself when I let you go I'm too young to be this old Terrified I'm gonna die alone I'm gonna die alone” I wish I had the words to express how hard this hits. This album is absolutely phenomenal.

You really have a knack for capturing the spirit of the elder millennial experience (fellow 1983-er here). I feel so much of this as well.

Both my kids have blue eyes so yeah I’m wrecked. Absolutely adore this album, can’t say it enough. How spoiled are we lately?

Well, here it is: On moving forward when you worry your best is behind you. On late-career albums and how we relate to music as we age. And more than anything just a giant round of flowers for Yellowcard and our music scene. Once mocked, now undeniable. Review: Yellowcard – Better Days

These comments are wild. More positive energy than I’ve ever seen around a release for us. Especially here where it can be a pretty tough crowd haha. Thank you guys. How the hell are we going to choose which songs to play live next year?!

I have so much to say about this, but for now I'll say that this is just...perfect. I will never forget listening to "Yellowcard" in 2016, flying all the way to Anaheim for that final show, thinking that was really it. Listening to this record for the first time just a few minutes ago was such a special experience. Skin Scraped and City of Angels are the early standouts for me. Just awesome.

This absolutely rips. Who would've thought we'd have new Yellowcard in 2025, let alone an album this good. The OMT references are very fair, but it's Travis drumming and co-written by Nick Long, so it was going to happen. OMT also ruled so I'm here for Yellowcard-182. Love Letters Lost, Skin Scraped and Barely Alive are so good

Yellowcard: “The point was, how do you find the sound that made everyone fall in love with Yellowcard?”
