I’m not actually going to keep posting about it but if someone gets pissy enough that I choose to talk shit about a bad band who housed a rapist and murderer for years I’m gonna do it at least one more time
There’s a couple tracks I like here so big improvement over the last one. But the bulk of this is horrible
I listened to both songs again. Lebron is okay, albeit a pale imitation of former glories. The other song is very bad. Proper US rock radio slop.
There’s a part 2 it’s a double album. Songs for part 2 just aren’t finished yet. Will come out later this year at some point
LeBron has terrible lyrics but it came on in the gym this morning and I found myself head bobbing along. It’s got a fun bouncy groove to it. I’m not ashamed to say that.
I don’t like much on here at all except for “Flowers.” They were always better in the earnest heartfelt mode than the big breakdowns for me, so I have to wonder why they put the dumbest breakdown in the middle of that song.
For whatever reason, maybe it's my ears or a re-recording, but Feedback truly does sound better on this record. The melody stands out way more. It's still not necessarily my favorite, but it's a great gym song.
I am upset I have to keep comparing bands I used to like to modern day Atreyu. This sucks. How do you forget how to write riffs this bad? EDIT: had to immediately switch to Common Courtesy to make sure I still enjoy this band. I do. Just not this new stuff.
The band embodiment of “you either die a hero or live long enough to see yourself become the (bull) villain.” I was 14 when A Death-Grip On Yesterday came out and I was obsessed with it for a while.
Debuted at #155 on Billboard with no streaming/lead up campaign. I’m sure the band doesn’t care and wants as much $ from physical as they can get. album has really grown on me with more spins, their best work in a long, long time. What’s to come? US headliner in late summer/fall? trying to think of potential tour mates that would get them back to arenas. Good Charlotte perhaps? They’ve hinted at Fall Out Boy taking them out late last year but we’ll see
