    I like it. Can’t wait for the new album I hope there’s some fast songs too.

    cringe-inducing. had to turn it off halfway through. in my experience, dudes that claim to be a “nice guy” are usually the opposite.

    Lyrical content gives me 2000 era vibes, and not in a good way.

    All their new songs have been awful. Major bummer since their album a couple years ago was really good Though I haven’t revisited it since

    Is Friend Circle really that worse of a band name than Home Grown, Fall Out Boy, The Format, or any version of the bands that just stole New Found Glory song names or lyrics for their name? Don't really get that criticism to be honest.

    thanks for the tip, I’ll check out friend circle. I see they have 1 monthly listener on spotify, which is perfect. I love to discover the next big thing before anyone else.

    Friend circle is a fine band name. Frnd crcl doesn’t seem any better, and if anything just looks gimmicky. It’s obviously my personal preference , but with this name I think just spelling it out is a cooler way of presenting it. FRND CRCL just makes me think of all the tech brands out there.

    I would be fine with Friend Circle but that isn't their name. It is FRND CRCL and that looks horrible to me.

    I’m just happy this band is finally being talked about. Good or bad lol. Suburban Dictionary was a great album!

    Suburban Dictionary was amazing, new singles aren't hitting for me but I'll hold judgment until a new album is out

    lol yeah I probably do I just don't like the trends of things like all caps and/or no vowels. I wouldn't not listen to the band because of it if their music is good I just think it looks stupid/childish. I too love MxPx and for some reason their name never bothered me but it may be because they were already an iconic band when I discovered them. I think I'm just getting old but the amount of new band names that make me cringe is increasing every day.
