I think only Bloody Romance stands holds up if I listened with fresh ears today but I like the other songs enough and have heard some of them live which were good.
this EP sounds incredibly dated but at the same time I still love listening to it. The guitars and a lot of the melodies are so infectious. Dreaming A Reality. Remains one of their best intros and every second of the song is epic. Still gets me amped. How does an acoustic rendition even have a vote?? Stephen. Lyrics aside, 187 was always overrated. Those screams are grating. Bloody Romance. Ground is cool but duhhh Free Fall Without A Parachute. Another crazy good intro and chorus. Both songs are catchy as hell and I love handguns but this gets the nod.
I love them but it was borderline unlistenable for me in 2006 @skurt i jumped aboard the Senses train at Let It Unfold You. Hence my dodgy non Bloody Romance vote
Current Totals: The Ground Folds (Acoustic) - 6 Dreaming A Reality - 8 One Eight Seven - 4 Steven - 10 Bloody Romance - 12 The Ground Folds - 2 Handguns And Second Chances - 3 Free Fall Without A Parachute - 11
I can't really listen to a lot of their earlier stuff anymore and I don't know much of their newer stuff but I will participate in the Still Searching bracket because that was my jam in high school haha.
Dreaming A Reality Stephen Bloody Romance Free Fall Without A Parachute Definitely their weakest release
I remember going to Best Buy when this was first released (my senior year of HS) and buying this EP without knowing absolutely nothing about the band or the album. It was one of the buys that I bought based off the sticker that said something like "For fans of (insert band here)" and I just bought it cold. I used to do that a lot. This morning was the first time I've revisited this album in probably 13 or 14 years. Not too redeemable imo. Dreaming One Eight Seven Bloody Romance Handguns

I’m thinking I’ll give it Until I Go On lunch and see if it’s gotten closer. If not then I’ll push it forward
