    I remember my reaction to repine being like, "okay, that was cool, but I don't know if i'll like a whole album of that." boy was i wrong.

    @KennedyBN in here ruffling feathers and so will I surely.

    Song is amazing. A great progression with a little more flare added to the sound of their previous release.

    Hiding/Dancing are the best tracks they've ever done.

    La Dispute is amazing but imo radically different in style from them, as well as vocal delivery. Even PBTT's early work is melodically/instrumentally different from what La Dispute does.

    Touché Amore had two solid post-hardcore releases and are extremely overrated, but for whatever reason get more attention and love than both bands I talk about above. I've seen them live, it's not great.

    I'd never felt such hyperbole about an album in the post-hardcore community like I did with Is Survived By. And that album was so unengaging for me. I remember feeling like I was missing something and repeating listens just to be like "yeah, hate to be that guy but the early stuff is way better."

    Cool? I guess. But saying "I don't know how people can like keep you and not this" just stifles discussion of the actual song and shifts it towards personal taste, which is subjective. That's not even getting into the emotional connection people might have with their past work that could be missing. I just think they're pointless posts, that are very condescending and can be used to shut down people who aren't loving this song.

    My reaction to this song is that it fills me with so much joy and it is a beacon of light

    Yeah, I like Stage Four more than all but Keep You and those are really the only 2 I ever listen to with any regularity.

    I’m sorry you thought I came across as condescending. But honestly me saying I don’t understand it does not stifle conversation. It’s not like I said, “if you like Keep You but not this song you are wrong”. I just said I don’t get it, and I don’t.

    There is nothing more condescending in that than your post honestly. And my post was basically asking for those who don’t like it to explain why they don’t. Which seems less pointless than simply saying “I don’t like it” cause at least I’m trying to have a conversation.

    I put it slightly above ISB and miles ahead of PTS. It has a similar effect on me that TLLA had, meaning I can't listen often anymore

    This might be the most confusing post I’ve ever read.

    Everyone post whatever you want. Lol

    I really think this sounds like a hybrid of the new touché amore “rhythm section” and keep you.

    If you like either of those albums instrumentally. This song should hit a chord.

    I have a weird touché amore rating.
    PTSBBAM > Stage Four > ISB > TTBOADH

    I understand Stage Four is their best record, but I have an emotional attachment to PTSBBAM that keeps it my personal favorite.

    100%. First time I felt like this scene had been infecting by "taste makers". That album had nothing lyrically interesting going on for me personally, even as a fan of the band previously, yet everyone was telling me how amazing and deep the lyrics were. I couldn't see it, at all.

    Then Stage Four came out and blew me away.

    Wildlife, Keep You, Everything You Ever Loved and Stage Four are all incredible records. This scene is truly amazing in it's quality. Not a single band release by any of these bands.

    While I wouldn't go as far as saying Is Survived By has "nothing interesting going on", Stage Four is just doing the same thing so much better that album has retroactively become pretty whatever

    ISB is still fantastic. Some of the posts in these last few pages make no sense.

    finally one I could actually participate in, the Thrice one gave me a nervous breakdown.

    DEADBOLT or SEE YOU IN THE SHALLOWS? Sophie has had an easier choice!
