Good Charlotte Band • Page 14

Bumping this hard this holiday break - would have loved to have seen a full project collaboration between Peep and GC.

 

WOW

 

Maybe this is part of the reason the band has been so quiet?

 

Hope so and not anything more serious.

 

Maybe it was a difficult pregnancy? Anyway, congratulations to them.

 

Had no clue he was with Cameron Diaz. Congrats to them.

 

anyone know who sings the second verse on this?

 

Isn't it Alex from All Time Low?

 

Congrats to Benji. Happy for them!

 

sounds like him, but have never seen this confirmed anywhere

 

I don't have a source, but I'm almost certain I saw something mentioned at some point when the album came out.

 

Listening to Cardiology for the first time in a long while and it's much better than I remember? It's like a mix of Good Morning Revival and the debut but it's more consistent than both. Like It's Her Birthday remains their nadir though

 

Oh okay there's some Chronicles influence in the interludes and the ballads too. I wish I would've liked it when it came out.

 

I definitely like it much more now than I did then. About half the songs I think are even really great.

 

Yep! Last Night, Standing Ovation, Alive and Right Where I Belong are probably my favorites.

 

I also really like There She Goes, 1975 and Silver Screen Romance.

I kind of think that with this album, Good Morning Revival and The Chronicles Of Life And Death they kind of did things bands like All Time Low would do years later, but unlike say ATL people didn’t give them the credit they deserve. Though they never really did get they credit they deserve, no matter which phase they were in.

 

I’ve always said the second half of the album is really good.

 

wrong band

 

i still die on the hill that crash should've not only been on the album, but replaced like it's her birthday as the lead single, especially if they were going for an "old-meets-new" sound for the radio single or whatever. people mostly shrugged at cardiology at the time, but there's so many good tracks. i especially loved there she goes because back then it really took me back to when gc were my go-to band

 

only songs i don't care for are birthday, the title track, and harlow's song. i hate saying that because that should've been one of the most beautifully-written songs on the album if not their whole career, and instead it's a misfire

 

There She Goes and 1979 might be some of their best songs overall IMO.

 

Cardiology is definitely an album I didn’t care for what it came out but ended up coning around on it big time. The back half is so good.

 

I think their early edgy teen punk image and some dumb lyrics hurt them in the long term (perception wise, otherwise they're doing more than fine)

 

Harlow is also a favorite of mine thanks to the strong Chronicles feel, but it sounds like it belongs on a different album. Its inclusion is weird.

 

Yeah but I think even that image was sincere at the time tbh
