Motion City Soundtrack - The Same Old Wasted Wonderful World (September 19, 2025) • Page 32

Wild. It is easy to hear them!

 

Maybe it’s because I’m super into Sincere Engineer, but Deanna’s vocals are pretty obvious on the bridge.

 

I’m not super familiar with Citizen so don’t really know what his voice sounds like

 

I am also team “the guest vocals are very easy to pick out,” although I can understand not picking up on Deanna, at least at first. I personally like how everyone’s incorporated - I find that guest spots can sometimes take me out of a song, so I’d rather it be more subtle or at least not front and center.

 

I saw some posts a while back mentioning that Tony's drumming is pretty meh here (you know who the fuck you are), I just want to push back against that and say I really love his drumming on this album. Especially in We Know Who the Fuck We Are, but he's great throughout.

 

I get the guest vocal complaint for Mat Kerekes. But I feel like Patrick has a pretty big part of Particle Physics, and Deanna is a huge part of what makes the bridge of Things Like This work so well.

 

Great talk with them. Patrick wrote the chorus of Particle which makes sense, he did a really great job of channeling Justin's early lyrical style.

 

I feel like Mat's part is there to elevate the chorus in general, until he let's out that belt towards the end. I've come to love that song/his contribution.

 

I can clearly hear all of the features I just expected them to take a full verse or something along those lines.

 

I was so relieved that they were so subtle.

 

People that can’t get into Particle Physics probably need a PhD to get it

 

It's weird because those lyrics are so Justin but absolutely so Patrick haha

 

Hearing a live version of She Is Afraid is so cool because they transitioned it so well into Indoor Living which I would not have thought of

 

Closing track is hitting hard today. What a jam.
