This is... interesting.

 

This is not good

 

That is not a good song.

 

Straight up the worst Adam has sounded I think. This is a pretty significant drop from Happiness Is

 

I dig the song, they seem like they're having more fun than I've noticed in a loong time

 

You can almost sing "I fought the law and the law won" over this.

 

I have been a massive TBS fan for 14 years...but this song is just not good.

 

The difference between the comments in the song premiere post vs the video premier post is crazy. Bunch of haters up in here. I think it's a simple but solid jam.

 

Lol I thought the same thing!

 

It's like they're doing a bad Gaslight Anthem impression.

 

I don't mind the song, I like it even, but like I said in the other thread- it's esentially half baked.

 

Funny how everyone was praising this song in the last thread. I think it's great.

 

Not bad, but not what I want from Taking Back Sunday, to be honest.

 

You people are crazy! That song is awesome and the video is great.

 

Still better than blink...

 

song is soooooo bad. jesus.

 

I'm into it. Like people said, it's got a Clash-y vibe, more straightforward, but it's got some good energy

 

it's kinda fun

 

Personally it's leaps and bounds ahead of (the majority of) the s/t and Happiness Is. Still not a huge fan of the track though.

 

Not what I was expecting, but I think that's why I like it. Someone in the band was definitely listening to Against Me's faster stuff.

 

I'm not sure where this song came from, but I dig it. I've been a Taking Back Sunday fan since 2002, and gone along for the ride with most records. And this is a switch-up in the best way. Not sure how it will sound within the context of a full record, because I doubt the rest of it sounds like this but...

I'm loving this. Definitely reminds me of the Clash, the Ramones, the Gaslight Anthem at their most "punk," etc. Catchy, catchy, catchy. Great summer jam!

 

How the mighty have fallen.

 

Definitely not what I was expecting from them, really good song, for me.

 

Shocked there are such strongly negative reactions in here. This was fun.

I never got their last album, even though it sounded like a step up from the last few before it, and I wouldn't be surprised if the same happened here. But, I'll definitely give it a listen. Hopefully it's a fun, catchy rock'n'roll album.
