Top 3 for me:

Clarity
Chase This Light
Futures

Although pretty much a 3 way tie

 

I think I will play the new one again today I really need to spend more time with that one. Gotta do a hotel booking brb

 

The intro gets me every time.

 

I always wondered if the payphone line in "Dizzy" was a reference back to Futures and the artwork.

I tried, but it rang and rang, I called all night
On a payphone, remember those from another life?

 

I can’t not sing my heart out to sweetness tbf

 

"Kill" is one of those songs that gets new meaning as you get older and experience heartbreak, hard decisions, and truly live real life

 

Always wondered if that was a callback too

 

Mine would be:

1. Bleed American
2. Clarity
3. Futures

Essentially splitting the thinnest of hairs though. All three are world class.

 

I first heard this album right after the second big breakup of my life and "Kill" immediately spoke to me. I will forever associate the song with that fall and those feelings, but not in a sad way anymore.

 

"I can't help it baby, this is who I am
Sorry, but I can't just go turn off how I feel
You kill me, you build me up, but just to watch me break
I know what I should do, but I just can't walk away"

Heart wrenching. Chills

 

Dude me too! That's crazy.

Also this fucking album never fails to put me in a warm and fuzzy place but also melancholic/nostalgic mood at the same time. Tbh Futures is one of my favorite albums of all time.

 

The passion he sings this part with "I loved you, and I should have said it
But tell me just what has it ever meant" is unbelievable

 

Lol my laptop crashed.

 

what song ya'll on?

 

It's also amazing how a song that heartbreaking could be that catchy.

 

I love the vocal melody in the verses of "The World You Love" so much.

 

JEW is one of those bands I always wished I listened to more. Like I said in the SciFi thread, I haven't listened to this album front to back in a decade at least, but I still remember/recognize every song as they come up. I'll probably just be listening to JEW for the rest of the day now.

 

also my JEW album ranking is different than just about everyone's

Clarity
Damage
Bleed American
Integrity Blues
Futures
Invented
Chase This Light
Static Prevails

 

It's almost exclusively what I've listened to all week

 

I fall asleep with my friends around me
Only place I know I feel safe
I'm gonna call this home

 

Why does your laptop hate Futures?

 

It takes my pain away!

 

Haha hey I have reasons

 

Originally I downloaded the album illegally and after awhile inexplicably the songs were out of order on my ipod and pain didn't flow seamlessly into drugs or me now I'm mad at myself because I didn't listen to the album as much for awhile and when I did it just wasn't the same. Thankfully those days are behind me now.
