    tough choice b/t identify & rock & roll. i like rock & roll a lot, especially the call and response they do with it live, and something about the delivery on the 'asked katie to dance' line has always stood out to me. identify is such a killer opener though, and that bridge is fucking great.

    Damn I missed a good round but that’s because I was actually seeing the Maine at Warped Tour so I guess that’s a good trade off (they were so freakin good, best thing about the day and it wasn’t even close. I also got to high five them while they walked to their meet and greet cus I was in line for merch.)

    Last round went mostly my way, but I probably would’ve gone Thinking Of You > Misery. Underrated imo.

    I think these two are probably my favorites on the album, so I like where this has gone.

    This album just does not do it for me, outside of a few songs that have already been voted out.

  16. Yeah I mostly feel the same. I liked it a lot when it came out because it was the first sign of their evolution, but in hindsight it’s pretty disjointed and overall just kinda bland. Some Days is a jam and a half though

    I thought I was the only one. The only songs I can even remember are My Heroine and Some Days.

    I don't dislike any of it, but it's all pretty forgettable to me, especially after spending so much time with their most recent album. It's definitely a transitional album, to me. The first seeds of their new direction were planted here, which is cool in retrospect given how great the last couple albums have been, but I always kind of felt like they lost their ability to write hooks for this album.
