listening to this for the first time rn and secret history made me drop my coffee on the carpet. fucking jaw dropping song. makes grand paradise and 737 look like ambient music

 

folks, im on hell 99 and im having the time of my life. im laughing like a maniac. if you didnt like draw down the moon, this will get you back on board i guarantee it

 

Foxing's S/T: So Good You'll Drop Your Coffee

 

I need this now. I didn’t know I could get more hyped lol

 

This wait is easy, I'll have it for a month before I hear B&C so that's cool

 

still not huge on greyhound but it works much much better as a breather after the first three songs

 

oh my god

 

barking thru gratitude is a crazy run

 

Send it 2 me I don’t even know how to leak stuff

 

Around the release of DDTM, I remember Conor saying something about how Five Cups was denial and anger and Speak With The Dead was grief and acceptance and one day they would do bargaining. You think Greyhound is it?

 

That’s what they sound like though

 

It’s fucking stupid to act like we can’t compare bands to one of the most influential bands on this scene it is not a judgement call on Jesse as a person to make a comparison and if you think it is you may as well block me because I’m gonna make the comparisons I hear and defend them because I know they’re valid

 

It literally sounds like a brand new song it makes perfect sense to compare them

 

because it’s so close i’m going to hold off and wait for the full album. I listened to the single once and really enjoyed it. NMG hit me in a way as an adult similarly to the records from being a teen did. The last record was really good but didn’t have nearly the emotional impact. I have tempered but high expectations for this one. very excited it’s only a few weeks out.

 

Dealer was Brand Newish but beyond that I just dont see it. I just think its a shallow comparison.

 

How is it any more shallow than any other comparison? Sorry, but I’m not really understanding the argument here.

 

Because I dont think they sound the same, haha. Not any more complicated than that. They are in the same genre, but thats about it.

 

my brother in Christ I'm gonna need you to PM me about who to email about this

 

I don't want to prolong this but also I can't recall a Brand New song with that log of a noise interlude or the electronic vocal sampler part that follows

 

I was unaware you could only make comparisons if two songs have the same exact elements the entire way through note for note, my bad, I guess the chord progression, the guitar tone, the vocal style, and the general vibe don’t count I’ll make sure to think twice before drawing a comparison that makes sense to my ears thanks guys

 

Okay and I do think they sound the same why was I attacked for having an opinion? It’s extremely obvious to my ears

 

I hear the similarities. You just can't mention the words "Brand New" without the dramatic protest.

 

I didnt attack you and I dont think you shouldve been attacked. I just dont agree with you.

 

I think it's fine to compare bands to Brand New, they were v influential and released a string of great albums. That being said I don't really think these particular bands are all that similar musically, lyrically, production or arrangement-wise.

 

I don't hear the brand new similarities. The song itself is fine. And draw down the moon is by far my favorite release of theirs (sounds like this one will lean more into past efforts).

I feel alone and scared.
