All Get Out – “Home”

Seems like this song was picked to introduce lots of new people to the band. It's a song that basically summarizes their entire discography in three minutes. Don't get me wrong though, it's a good song and I like the production.

 

Really like it, but it seems like a 2:44 song that could've easily been reduced to 2:00 or less.

 

I'm so stoked that he is committing to this band fully now, they deserve so much more.

 

I don't want to overstate it, but this song might be the height of human achievement and the greatest thing anyone's ever created.

I really like the song, is what I'm trying to say.

 

i would never complain about an extra 44 seconds of a new song from a band whose last full length was in 2011.

 

Great stuff

 

Fair. I was more so making the point that the final chorus + guitar riff seemed so copy-and-paste that I was having deja vu. At that point, I'd rather just listen to the entire song again than unnecessarily repeat an already repetitive chorus. Don't worry, I do get what you're saying. I've loved this band since seeing them live a few years back and shouldn't be complaining about the "quantity" of new music.

 

Love the song! I was a little worried when Hussey was talking about this album being softer than Movement but this sounds great. Awesome production too. I'll have to pre-order this bad boy when it goes up.

 

I like this a lot. The energy is palpable. Can't wait to hear the rest of the album!

 

Great song. Excited for another awesome album.

 

Now this is funny.

 

I haven't gone back to Movement a ton, but this is very catchy and very good. Excited for this release! The first album review I ever wrote was for The Season on AP, haha.

Also cool that this means Andy and Robert will likely be focusing on new Manchester material very soon

 

I love that the song is getting good reception here. Wasn't as much in the all get out threads!

 

I've actually gone back to Movement recently, after only really giving it one listen upon its release. That EP is hitting me in the right ways right now that it didn't back then. It's really grown on me.

 

You should give it another listen. Movement is fantastic!

 

Movement is their best stuff by far (to date).

 

I'm not gonna lie - the Season is my most listened to album since it came out in 2011, and I think I may like Movement better. It's definitely less emotionally hard-hitting (I don't cry at any point like I do when Let Me Go and Come and Gone hit me on the right day), but it's essentially flawless. I just wish it was longer - 18 minutes is just way, way too short.

Their self-titled EP is also definitely worth a visit. Water and God, Coach Connor, and Three More I Guess are all mainstays in my All Get Out playlists. Super good songs from a super good EP.

 

LOVE love love the self-titled EP.

 

So, fun story about the self-titled EP:

After falling in love with the Season via the absolutepunk.net stream of it, I bought it and went to one of their shows. It was at a little bar with like 30 people there and they played the Season in its entirety, and it was one of the best shows I've ever been to just on its face - it's absolutely in my top 3 shows ever.

Anyway, one of the opening bands was this awkward local band who truthfully wasn't great, but they sure were trying. Well, their frontman/guitar player ended up breaking a string... and not having a replacement (or a replacement guitar). He said something to the effect of, 'well, we had three more songs, but I guess we'll just be done now.' At that moment, the guitar player for AGO ran up to the stage, went to their rack and gave the kid his guitar. It was truly one of the coolest things I've seen a national band do for a group of local kids.

Motivated by their kindness, I wanted to support them somehow. So, after their set (which, again, was one of my favorite albums start to finish and made me cry three times and was the best thing ever), I went to them and looked at their merch. The problem? I had been fairly heavily drinking and only had $10 left. Nothing was that cheap - their cheapest thing was like $15 and it was a T-shirt. So I just handed the $10 to one of the band members, and said something that I'm sure was embarrassing because I'm always super embarrassing when I talk to band members, and before I could walk away, the dude said, 'hey wait there for a minute.' He went out for like two minutes, and then came back in and said 'here, I dug this out of the van. We only have a couple left but we can't take your money without giving you something.' And lo and behold, he handed me the self-titled EP on CD. I didn't even know it had existed at that point.

It didn't leave my car radio for a solid 6 months.

 

There's a "three more, I guess," joke to make wrt that story but oh well

This band is amazing, but I don't love this song - seems a bit too straightforward. Still good, but I'm hoping the rest of the album will be better

 

Hoping it's the piano player of this release, don't like it at first but love it later

 

Hyped as hell, I like the song, which isn't their best, but it's fresh! and the straightforwardness doesn't get me off by far. The cover looks great, and I even liked the little write up on the album - literally can't wait!

 

Related to the interests of the people on this thread: a 30 minute solo set with Nathan where he plays three new songs (including the new single and a song that made me cry the first time I listened to it). Totally worth the watch.

 

Yesssss I was there, didn't know this video existed - thanks for posting! It was amazing. Reintroduced me to AGO after years of not listening to them.
