Well, I hope these guys realize what the hell they created.......this is their masterpiece. .....and I'm not even done listening to the album yet.
I mean, it's only been a few hours since this thing has been out there, but jesus - can you imagine where they can go next? I'd listen to a whole album of songs like that one.
I never thought they'd write anything good as reach for the sun. This is objectively more interesting, complex, and layered than anything they've ever done. It's like they took that next level step that Brand New, The Starting Line, Blink, and others have. Assuming they don't stop here they're only going to get bigger and more revered I think;.
I respect the hell out of everyone’s opinion here, and I have a lot of cross over with many of you. This album is going to wreck me isn’t it
I was so scared that your hype would result in me being let down. It's so freaking good. Fuck, I hope they're rewarded for it.
haha. I deleted it to ensure we can stay on the topic at hand, which is that this album is going to make HUGE noise.
I'm just going to put it this way....this is their first album that's made me feel something since the first time I heard RFTS. RFTS was something I was unfamiliar with sonically that it took me for an emotional ride when I first heard it. This album is doing exactly that. They just reinvented the ride.
So I just finished my first listen. I’m in fucking love with what this sounds like. There’s so much going on and so much to love. I’m horrific at picking up lyrics early on, so I cannot wait tomorrow and beyond to really let this settle in because AJ’s lyrics have always been my favorite part. This rules. This band is great.
