Lean is like my little treasure of a song. It's often overlooked by many but I think the simplicity and honesty of it is what makes the track so good.
Damage is nearly flawless but I think Appreciation is one of the weaker songs (along with No, Never and Byebyelove). For underrated I'll go with Please Say No and How'd You Have Me. Clarity is absolutely one of the more underrated songs of their career. People talk about that album a lot but they rarely ever mention the title track. I think it's one of the best rockers they've ever done.
I think Appreciation, Damage, I Will Steal You Back, No, Never, and You Were Good are my top 5 from Damage. I honestly love that record front to back, though.
i'm probs gonna spin damage this week cuz i always underestimate the record, even when i consider it one of my favorite albums of all time
lol well, its heading this way Damage ranking: Please Say No Book of Love How'd You Have Me You Were Good Damage Lean I Will Steal You Back Appreciation No, Never Byebyelove Musically, I Will Steal You Back is probably number 1 but I only let the others edge it out because of their lyrics, which is what makes Damage what it is anyway.
I've noticed that IB is not nearly as guitar driven as previous albums, and I've realized that's a big part of what makes it feel so different to me. Even the songs that are guitar driven are still not the "typical" JEW style (with the exception of Get Right). Not a criticism, just an observation. You Are Free might end up being my favorite song from this record.
i wanted this album to be a return to guitar-driven music and was excited when Get Right and Sure & Certain came out. was a little disappointed with how the album turned out because it wasnt the style I was hoping for, but its still great at what it does. Please, though, I really want the next album to feature more electric guitar!!
If You Dont Dont and Heart Is Hard To Find are my favorite songs from their respective albums (tho Invented puts up one hell of a fight)
I CANT COMPETE WITH A REAL EDUCATION ALL THE FUCKED UP THINGS YOU SAY COULDNT POSSIBLY BE ANY LESS HELP TO ME
Is it true that this band has never released a post hardcore album cuz that's bullshit buncha hack songwriters
