Listening to the self titled right now and it looks like absolute hell outside because of a rain storm - perfect. This is one of my favorite albums of all time, so I'm going to be cautiously excited for a almost 20 year follow up
Last summer, about a week before I left for my first year at college, I took my dog for a 2 am walk in a huge rainstorm and listened to this album. I had been listening to it for a month prior but this was when it really hit, and I've been waiting all summer to do it again. This is my last week before I go back for my second year, and if they announce something in the next few days it'll be sooo neat
Nah I totally agree, it was fantastic IMO. Back on topic, please let this be a new album and please let it be available say...now-ish.
New albums from Jimmy Eat World, Owen, Blink-182, and potentially American Football... Basically all of my favorite bands are releasing albums this year! 2016 rules.
excited for what's to come. obviously new music would be incredible but I would just love to see them again. catching the 2014 reunion tour was something I will never forget for a lot of reasons... seeing them live was truly a magical experience and one that I never thought would ever happen, ever. the attachment I have with this record is something I don't have with many other bands/records. it holds an incredbily special place in my heart. the night of the show on October 11 my phone died and when it finally got power the next morning I was a flooded with texts and phone calls coming through asking if I was okay, have I heard from anyone, and the "I'm sorry for your loss". I had no idea what was going on, but quickly put all the pieces together after getting a hold of one of my buddies and was told that my one of my best friends and old roommate passed away in an accident at the all too young age of 23, while I was at the show. I went from such an insane high to a complete low, it took a while to recover. I don't think that I listened to anyhting but AF for a month or two after that day. I will forever remember that nght as was one of the best experiences of my life coupled with one of the worst. edit: don't want to bring anyone down but all the teasing has flooded me with so many thoughts. everyone carry on with the excitement!
i want to see them live again because i was maybe the sickest i've ever been during the reunion show lol
