The Hotelier - Goodness (May 27, 2016) Album • Page 233

I like this a whole lot but much prefer Home. Listen to that more often

 

True of all their records for me.

 

Home and Goodness are equally important to me. Goodness is a better album

 

Yeah, I know you're quite the fan of Home. Your love of it when it came out is what made me hear of this band, so THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU

 

This seems pretty accurate

 

Home has Dendron but this has Soft Animal, so it's a toss up rly.

 

This has at least one higher high and it doesn't have housebroken, but I do prefer home overall

 

Home wins best opening and closing track for me for sure.

 

To anyone who has seen them live recently, how incredible of a job did the guy from Born Without Bones do filling in? I thought they sounded so tight with him, and his backing vocals were perfectly done(especially in Dendron)

 

I think I prefer Goodness now because I seriously overplayed Home and saw them a ton of times during that cycle

 

Goodness > Home. I think Home is tremendous but there is just some out of this world songwriting on Goodness.

My Spotify 2016 playlist came out, and Two Deliverances was my post played song of the year. I knew the only thing that could come close to topping it was a Rosenstock song, but it released too late in the year.

 

In the podcast when talking about hotelier he mentioned Scott as if he was a member of the band

 

Scott has played with them off and on since just about their inception, he's always been involved haha.

Would agree to whoever says that he makes them a better band live. BWOB is a great live act in their own right and the new songs translate well

 

Best I've ever seen them was with him. Jade was really good too, but Scott seemed to care more and seemed to be having a blast the whole time. I got the feeling that jade didn't want to be there at times, maybe that isn't fair. Just a feeling I got though

 

Maybe he will stick around, if not I'll be sending in my audition tape with @KennedyBN (not really lol)

 

I'm honestly down!!!

 

He was for a bit in the time before Home, but idk 100%

 

I would love him to be permanent! Glad I'm not the only one feeling that way

 

P sure he replaced zack for a bit after he left?

 

Yes, his energy and stage prescence are incredible

 

Piano Player is one of the best Hotelier songs hands down

 

This is my favorite thread right now on Chorus, by the way

 

Even better live! Probably my most listened to song on the new record

Edit: just checked last.fm and it's tied with "Opening Mail For My Grandmother" for most listened song off of Goodness. They're ranked 8 and 9 overall as my most played Hotelier songs

 

Yea, i don't think there's ever been any hostility in here, just real positive vibes

 

did you miss all the Housebroken debates and the times people popped in here to say this album was shit
