New Again? More like Old Again! Am I right?!

 

It is just about 14 yrs old.

For perspective, TAYF was half that age when New Again came out.

 

I relistened to new again the other day. It’s pretty good / fine but my least favourite of theirs for sure.

 

Carpathia should be a live staple.

 

Happiness Is… turned 9 today. 9 years!

 

2nd best TBS album.

 

Second to last album they released too. Woof.

 

I think the only album of theirs I’ve never listened to in full.

 

whats everyones thoughts on new again?

 

So good

 

I wanna be new again

 

Is that an album?

 

No, it is a lifestyle!

 

I don't know, I feel like I'd have heard about it more

 

Revisiting ST today. I remember hating Faith but it kinda slaps

 

In celebration of their upcoming 8th album, here's a ranking my absolute favorite 8 releases/moments in tbs history:

1. release of New Again
2. Adam and John releasing acoustic TAYF tracks following the reunion
3. Deciding to not put "Brooklyn" on Louder Now
4. Steve Aoki collab
6. Adam learning to scream and expand his vocal range in Cut Me Up Jenny and Holy Water
7. Releasing a Best Of album
8. My Name is Jonas

 

My favorite TBS songs ranked:

1. "New Again" 3:33
2. "Sink Into Me” 3:03
3. "Lonely, Lonely" 2:49
4. "Summer, Man" 3:51
5. "Swing" 3:26
6. "Where My Mouth Is" 3:52
7. "Cut Me Up Jenny" 3:52
8. "Catholic Knees" 2:48
9. "Capital M-E" 2:49
10. "Carpathia" 3:09
11. "Everything Must Go" 4:44

 

This is very funny

 

Honestly, at least 4 of my fav TBS songs are listed there. Ha

 

Let me guess,

Where my mouth is, Catholic Knees and New Again (x2)

 

Adam did some production work on my band's EP back in 2018. Imagine working on your first record and the producer says "oh, Adam Lazzara's gonna hang out and shadow a bit this week." That's quite literally what happened. It was an out-of-body experience for me.

I'm aware of how much more stoked I am in this photo than Adam. Feel free to AMA

Edit: Please let me know if this is breaking any rules and I will be happy to remove, but my band is Never Home. We recorded the first EP at the studio where TBS recorded Tidal Wave.

 

Why would you wait 5 years to make this post?

 

What's one piece of advice he gave that improved your record?

 

Ha, I only recently joined this community despite lurking since the AP.net days. I did post it to the pop-punk subreddit at the time!
