    I feel like the fact that the band is still able to headline bigger venues than most of their peers and continue to get on big bills with massive bands (Bring Me The Horizon, Korn, Falling in Reverse, Papa Roach all come to mind) tells me that their team couldn’t be doing a completely terrible job. It’s just really difficult for most of these legacy bands to attract younger fans and I feel like they continue to make it harder on themselves when 60%+ of the songs on their headline setlists were released during the Bush presidency. Hopefully whoever takes over does a better job promoting the next album. The band does a better job than most with their touring choices, but they do seem to struggle attracting fans to their modern music.

    i’m hoping it rules- and anytime i hear Devin’s voice i’m going to end up enjoying the songs because he is an incredible vocalist. i just disagree completely with the vocal techniques they chose for the songs released so far. him just loudly exclaiming or shouting, whatever you’d call it that you hear regularly is off putting for me. it makes the “heavy” portions fall so flat. i think the part at 2:27 in “are we even” where he is yelling- that’s a tasteful addition. however, “Damage Done” 2:23, and 2:27 in “Anomaly” are prime examples where I just don’t know why that made sense. Split feels like the perfect song for me of all the releases so far. it has heavy sounding parts, but without feeling like it needed more aggression than what they added into it vocally, and I think the twists in the song are really cool. i do roll my eyes when people say the band died when Zach and Jimmy left. Jimmy had literally zero creative control as far as I have read/heard, and Treehouse is, imo, better than New Demons- although I do think New Demons is such a great and slept on album in the genre.
