My overall thoughts: the album rocks. It's certainly not their best work but it's definitely my favorite release of theirs since Living Things and it puts them on a very positive path for the new era. My hope is to see them eventually go back to a more experimental sound that is hinted at on "Overflow" but I can't expect that for a comeback album with a new singer after everything they had gone through. Making an album that blends a bunch of their old styles together was the right move. Also, "Stained" is going to be huge.
You can tell they're just having fun right now. I can totally see them putting out another collection of songs in a year.
They had bad omens and sleep token open who are on the rise and super popular in most places. Hell sleep token is headlining download next year. Could totally see turnstile being an opener
no idea, but google tells me Dexter and the Moonrocks, Myles Smith, Royel Otis, Almost Monday and Badflower are all real bands who are charting? Top Alternative Rock Song Chart | iHeartRadio
If Mcr wasn’t planing their own tour when lp asked them I think they would have said yes and this would have been the stadium tour that they where thinking about doing before doing arenas instead
Badflower is the only one I could see (and they're actually a great band, steve you're a menace). The rest are all waaaaay too alternative to make sense, especially for this iteration of LP.
I'm actually impressed you know them at all Maybe I'll listen to every song on this list I don't know, just to see if there's anything good out there.....
Not making Stained a single would be a HUGE missed opportunity. Probably the catchiest song on the album behind Emptiness Machine IMO
