New Found Glory - Forever and Ever x Infinity (June 19, 2020) Album • Page 36

Yeah everything about this record just feels “different.” Like im unsure how much effort was actually put in.

 

It's insane how this band released two great projects (MMS and FTSTYS3) and then put this out. I didn't need an NFG album this quickly. They could have bought time by having a 20 yr Anniversary "tour" for NGCS and playing a few shows.

 

This album seems more like a contractual obligation than anything. Kinda like Green Day’s Father of All.

 

Three songs in and holy heck these lyrics... Were they written by a 12 year old?

 

First half of Friday's setlist

 

No News and Memories are cool to see

 

I have nothing valuable to contribute but I will say it seems like every NFG record splits fans opinions, and this one is no exception. If it isn't your cup of tea, chances are the next one will be.

 

Wonder if they'll cover Ramones or Green Day. Also is Ryan Key doing this?

 

It's crazy they're playing 40 songs. If I'm around I'm definitely gonna have to watch this. Surprised to see 47 on there.

 

This is fine for what it is, I enjoy some of it and I'll put it on occasionally, but it's a massive regression from MMS. This band's trajectory is really disappointing compared to the potential they've shown

 

One song from Coming Home? Come on. Hopefully more in the second half.

 

I wonder what the details of their current contract are.

 

I hope they play a decent amount of songs from the new album.

 

Six on Drive-Thru (Including MCA/Geffen)
One on Geffen (I think coming home was technically just a Geffen release)
Two on Epitaph
And this will be the fourth on Hopeless

Long story short, no idea how many records they owe them.

 

I’d check out that livestream if I didn’t have to work for the beginning of it

 

I'd love to watch the livestream but 5pm is too damn early.

 

Gonna be hard to take a break from playing the last of us part 2 tomorrow!

 

IIRC the stream will be up for 24 hours after the initial broadcast

 

Isn't there usually a few reviews of the album out by now?

 

yeah you would think

 

Looks like there are some reviews out there now. Surprisingly seem really positive.

 

That's because they aren't on Chorus.fm

 

New Found Glory Relights the Flame of Youth with 'Forever + Ever x Infinity'

 

Musically there's some good stuff here, it's just that the lyrics are unbelievably cringe and off putting that i'd find it hard coming back to this. I wonder what Steve Evetts thought when he heard some of these lyrics for the first time in the studio lol

 

Jordan even says 'cringey' twice in one song, too
