Taking Back Sunday Band • Page 7

I just want a solo Adam Lazzara folk record. "Because it Works" was a great tune.

 

Song for song, New Again is definitely my least favorite, though there are definitely a few on there I love: Carpathia (espec. the alt version,) Everything Must Go, Sink Into Me, even the title track. Cut Me Up, Jenny, Catholic Knees, and Capital M-E directly in a row is one of the worst 3 song stretches in the history of music.

 

the further removed I get, the more I feel like "El Paso" doesn't really work. it got me hyped beyond belief when it was released and I like the direction and the attempt to do something kind of different but I feel like the execution isn't really there and the production really doesn't work with it.

imo, "It Doesn't Feel A Thing Like Falling" would have made a better opener.

 

Sad Saviour is a top 5 tbs song for me.

 

This Is All Now and Call Me In The Morning are two of the best TBS songs easily, You Got Me is a jam and Since You're Gone is fun as well. It's not their best but for a comeback album I really enjoyed it.

 

"Sad Savior" is a good one. "Call Me In The Morning" is a TBS classic for sure. I don't know if I really hate on the self-titled, but there's just a lot of forgettable stuff on there.

 

aw i love capital m-e. such a great chorus

 

Lol no way that album is great and 2 of those 3 songs are excellent

 

"capital m-e" and "summer man" are so so amazing, hard for me to write off that album completely even though the problems the band have with it (it does sorta sound like shit (though in a different way from how the s/t sounds like shit) and parts of it feel half-written and rushed) are legit

 

those songs are all boring as fuck

 

cut me up jenny is their worst song. I tried listening today and nope still do not like at all. New Again is great though

 

I've tried to like "Cut Me Up Jenny", but it really is just an awful song. I love "Summer, Man" though. It just has a good vibe to it.

 

that first verse in summer, man is one of the best parts of the album.

 

oh and the s/t, while it has its issues, was enormously important to me when it came out. i was falling for someone when i first heard "call me in the morning," etc. i still think "best places" is one of the best tbs songs ever

 

counting one to seven through the roof / if my lady only knew how high i am, i am tonight

 

ah shit i'm not ok with louder now being 10 years old

 

Mackey Sasser should have opened Self titled.

 

Cut Me Up Jenny only sucks because Adam forgot he hit puberty years ago and tried hitting all of those high notes. Instrumentally its one of the more interesting songs on the album, but Adam sounds awful on it. Speaking on New Again, the Lonely, Lonely riff is still one of my favorite riffs the band has ever produced. Such a jam

 

New Again is a top 3 tbs album

 

I will admit I was really interested in "Cut Me Up Jenny" when I heard that guitar intro, but the lyrics and Adams delivery are just awful. If there's one song from New Again I wish they'd play its "Swing". Such a good song.

 

It looks like their IG was hacked?

 

knew i could count on you.

looks like the set for Taste of Chaos has been the same most nights according to setlist.fm

not sure how i feel about 2 new songs in a relatively short set, especially without any of them being properly released yet.

still really stoked for next friday at PNC though.

 

I'm literally the only TBS fan who loves Cut Me Up Jenny haha. I love the groove of the verses, if he didn't scream Cut Me Up Jenny the song would be a lot better too.

Swing is one of those songs I don't listen to often but whenever I do I fucking love it. Anytime I see Fazzi at a show I compliment him on that intro. I think Mark contributed to it as well since he writes a lot of the music. New Again is pretty underrated, it's got some duds but Swing, Carpathia, Everything Must Go, Where My Mouth Is, Summer Man, Jenny, and Sink Into Me are all quality TBS tracks

 

You're not the only one! I love Cut Me Up Jenny as well as the rest of the album.
