As Cities Burn Band • Page 15

Anyways, I don't like the song as much as "84 Sleepdog" or "Prince of Planet Earth" (which I'm apparently in the minority on), but it's a'ight. Good to hear Cody & TJ again. The instruments don't give me that ACB vibe 'til about 2/3 of the way through, but it doesn't sound bad.

Do we know for sure that there's a full length album on the way? If so, I'm looking forward to hearing it and reliving late high school.

 

They’re on Equalvision so I’d imagine that’s for an album

 

Could just be an ep tho

 

Ok, that’s still something

 

Or it could be a one off single. I doubt it.

 

I can’t imagine joining a label for a single

 

That's not what I'm saying tho. Could be a one off single after signing and the next release on the same label won't have this song on it. That's possible.

 

Dig it.

 

The new single made me want to jam Hell or High Water since that's what it most reminds me of... that album still holds up!

 

The beginning of the song reminds me of Dr. Manhattan...

 

Now that's a band I haven't seen mentioned in awhile.

 

This. I feel like I’ve grown out of most aggressive vocals in general. TJ’s parts feel like they’re there because they have to be (because of his vocal style) rather than they’re there to suit the song

 

Love that they are making music again.

 

So excited. New song is a jam and I loved both Goldmine/Prince of Planet Earth so I am ready for whatever the boys have to offer.

 

Lmao remember when HoHW came out and everybody speculated that Petty was about Craig Owens?

 

Ha, I've not heard about this! I feel like I'm missing out. How odd.

 

Yeah, I remember Craig even making a tweet about it saying he loves ACB. I think it was all based on the fact that he was on the cover of AP

 

Anberlin is also doing a 'one-day' reunion show this year, but maybe new stuff next year?

 

Unfortunately not into this. Just feels like a regression after the last two albums. TJ being there makes the song much worse IMO.

 

The more I think about it, the more I wish it was just Cody on vocals. I mean, I like this song, but Come Now Sleep and Hell or High Water are incredibly special albums and that's in part due to Cody's vocals and guitar work.

 

It sounds like they are going for an Erase Me vibe and that kinda scares me.

 

Wait the singing part is Cody right? Or is the singer not the same on this new song and on HoHW?

 

The singing part is Cody. The screaming is TJ who is now back in the band. I'm saying that I wish it was just Cody on the vocals without TJ's screaming as I think they are more distinctive and compelling.

I do like the song, but Come Now Sleep and Hell Or High Water are just incredible albums.

 

I'm torn on this, CNS is one of my all time favorite albums and HOHW was a great album to end on. I'm curious if this album will be a progression of CNS/HOWH or will be the SILYAYD pt 2 they never got to make (or a mix of all those?)

I agree that I prefer Cody's vocals and I'd rather see a CNS/HOHW type album but just the fact they are releasing new music again is enough for me

 

Never heard that but that's funny.
