Mayday Parade - Sunnyland (June 15, 2018) Album • Page 4

New song is pretty awesome structurally. The lyrics are meh to me. Still an enjoyable song and still looking forward to this release.

 

Not sure what the hell is happening in these music videos, but it is sort of nice to see some LGBT representation in the scene, even if it's just a little more than crumbs.

 

Am I the only one that thinks this could be a shot at Jason Lancaster? I mean, the title, the lyrics, the concept.

Maybe I'm just stirring the pot, but that's the first thing I thought of.

 

First thing I thought when I saw the song name on the track listing was that they wouldn't get on with Jason these days lol

 

Very true, lol! His tenure in the band was so short lived that I’m sure it’s a non thought at this point. Especially since they’ve seem to really just get on with life without him for the anniversary shows.

 

After looking at the lyrics I think it could be about Jason lol

 

I just thought with the timing of the anniversary shows and their silence on it, that this made sense that it could be about him. This line: "To prove what you had wasn’t dead inside But we know, yea everyone knows what a selfish prick you’ve become" kinda made me feel like that.

 

I would hope they’re still not writing about 10-year old drama (unless there’s new drama), and I think the song’s too general to say for sure. But last I heard about Jason, he did sound kind of like a prick. Didn’t he announce that Go Radio was ending without telling any of the band members? Whatever it was, I remember thinking it was pretty uncool.

 

I hope there isn't new drama, LOL! I just thought there might be because of the anniversary shows being right around the time they were likely writing this.

 

Like this one miles more than Never Sure. Hoping either this track or Piece make their way into the Warped setlist.
Iffy on the lyrics again, I'm hoping that it wasn't that much of a step back overall throughout the album.

 

Another new song

 

I like it, but not super impressed by it. Maybe it’ll sink in more after listening a few times

 

Stay The Same is a fuckin’ jam. Black Lines was the only album ive dug since ALIR so im surprised at how much i dig it. “Its Hard to Be Religious” feels like grown men cosplaying an their younger selves, pass on that one

 

This album is good. There are so many jams on this album.

It's Nowhere.....WOW.

 

S/T > ALIR = MITC > BL >>> ABH

"If You Can't Live Without Me..." has two of their top 5 guitar solos though

 

Wasn’t sold on the singles, but wow this record is awesome. Definitely not going to listen again till release so I can listen I’m better quality.

 

After one listen I really like it. Just consistently entertaining from song to song. My biggest complaints are iffy lyrics in some places and not enough Jake. But overall I think it's fantastic. If I Were You is a banger.

 

Great summer night album.

 

If I Were You and Is Somewhere are awesome.

Only song I'm not really feeling is Take My Breath Away, and Where Are You is pretty cringey lyrically, but I really like this album.

 

Not too impressed by this on first listen. There's nothing really bad on here per se, but also not much that caught my interest. Maybe my mind will change with more listens, but these sound like weaker versions of songs they've already written, and the sequencing feels off. Noticed more corny lyrics on this one than in past albums, too.

Piece of Your Heart was my favorite song by a considerable margin, and I also thought How Do You Like Me Now and Looks Red, Tastes Blue were pretty good.

 

More pop punk or alt rock?

 

I'd go with the latter

 

It’s Nowhere is a brilliant song.

 

Piece of Your Heart is a huge pop song.

 

Piece of Yor Heart, It’s Nowhere, If I We’re You, and Sunnyland are all awesome. Need more time with the rest.
