I like when bands separate them from the closer on streaming. Like Sticks and Stones, The Story So Far exists in its own and the hidden stuff is a separate track. This needs to be the standard haha
The founder of Omegle announced it’s being shut down. Omegle is the platform Steve Klein used to prey on underage girls.
No one lol. The deluxe Ascension one is easily obtainable on the secondary market for less than what this one costs.
It's actually still on sale on that same website for just a dollar more right now for their Black Friday sale. Worst time to introduce a new pressing of the standard version.

Went down a rabbit hole the other day and came across this gem. I want a studio version of it. Jordan and Skiba hugging during and at the end of this is just so pure.
cyrus interview Cyrus is the first guest on the new Loyal To The Craft - watch Episode 1 now! (youtube.com)
His comments about Coming Home were interesting. I think most of us love that album and I’m sure the band is proud of it, but it almost sounds like he wished they released something that sounded closer to Catalyst/S&S. But with Geffen being a complete disaster I’m not sure it would’ve mattered. Plus the Epitaph era was really fun, imo. also, Cyrus seems like a cool ass dude.
My conversation with Cyrus at Warped Tour back in the day about Coming Home was similar...he basically said, "it's just one of 6 (at the time) albums they made, and if fans don't like it, they'll keep making other music." He's a very down to earth person who doesn't take success, or commercial misfires, too personally. He's always been really nice at meet and greets I've attended.
I’ll never forget when I met them once Cyrus was definitely the most genuine and down to earth. I mean they were all cool and nice but like Cyrus genuinely shook my hand and asked me a bunch of questions. He very sincerely thanked me for coming out and doing the meet and greet package. Good dude
When I saw BCR and NFG in Boston Cyrus talked to us a bit that were waiting in line outside. He's definitely always seemed like a nice guy
My buddy asked Cyrus a drumming question on youtube and ended up having a long intricate conversation about it. Just pretty rad. Nice to throw out some positive gossip about a dude.
I love the Live in London live album so much. Wish they'd release it to streaming. Failure's Not Flattering is goosebumps city
When I got tattooed by Jordan years ago (2012?), he told me he wished they could have gone more in the coming home direction but people weren’t really into it. he tattooed the MXPX logo on me. It was weird seeing him be an apprentice watch him sweep floors and stuff.
Rad tattoo!! It's funny how everyone hated Coming Home now it's got this cult following. I like it too. When I first listened to it I hated it, strange I think I just wanted to hear more stuff that sounded like Sticks and Stones the scene was kind of falling off at that point too. Crazy to think how hard it's come back now.
I never hated it. I think it's the best record they've made as a band but I probably wouldn't consider it the best New Found Glory record.
speaking of Coming Home, I love it and i've always liked the radio mix of "It's Not Your Fault" a little more, but it's few and far between i come across it on streaming. so i decided to upload it on youtube. this version was mixed by Bob Clearmountain.
