Joyce Manor - I Used To Go to This Bar (January 30, 2026) • Page 14

Most I've liked a JM first listen since Cody. 19 minutes of bangers.

 

I agree with grimace

 

Awesome record. "Grey Guitar" is just so so good

 

Really good album, definitely the best since Cody

 

On AbsolutePunk.net, I would have given this the very prestigious score of 8.3 after meticulously giving numerical scores to the vocals, music, production, etc.

 

I’m a 40 oz to Fresno truther

 

i give it 8 and a half possums

 

I thought it was only the Reader Score and comments that were getting paywalled on the Fork. That's dumb as hell

 

Once again agreeing with grimace.

Personally, I think Fresno is their best album

 

Really love "After All You Put Me Through."

loving

 

not counting this album because it just came out but it’s probably top 3 for me, it’s great

 

Really solid album. The middle feels a little bit different for them, hearing a little more straight power pop than usual. “Well, Whatever it Was” is an advertisement for how late period Weezer could be good if you strip it of all the embarrassment. Opener and Well Dont it Seem are instant entries into their pantheon for me. Not my fave record of there’s but absolutely a good addition to the catalog.

 

my sister's name is danielle. i sent her grey guitar this morning

 

Loving some of the power pop vibes, especially Falling Into It’s dueling guitar/synth line. Sometimes a riff just fucking riffs!

 

This will probably knock Fresno out of my top three, but S/T and Cody will always reign supreme for me.

 

nah

 

For some reason, 40oz just felt really disconnected to me, especially with a cover and a few old b-sides taking a significant chunk of the tracklist. This feels much more cohesive.

 

you’ve only got three more this month spend them wisely

 

all things considered that was far more ridiculous than the pitchfork scale and when we started standardizing the scores and putting whatever our desired score was in each category people would be in the comments HOW ARE THE LYRICS AN 8

 

Really like everything here save after all you put me through

closer rules one of their best

 

after all you put me through rules get outta here
