Very very happy with how catchy this is, amazing song. Also, this is like 'Casey' part 2 to me, in the best way possible.
Fuck yes! Single is amazing. On par with After The Party and On The Impossible Past.. Plus, holy shit 2 MI dates? Id rather go see em in Detroit with Tigers Jaw though.... That would knock out seeing 2 of my favorite bands ever in one go.. Must talk the wife in to this show.
Their last album really made me a huge fan and this seems to be in the same vain so definitely excited. Also, so awesome that Tigers Jaw is along with them (I panicked that they were only on some dates but I see them in for Atlanta). I'm probably jinxing myself now, but I've always thought the bridge to 'Guardian' would be phenomenal live and I see that in a lot of their recent set lists so fingers crossed. (basically 2:44 for a minute onwards).
The effect on the vocals was really jarring at first but by the end of the song it didn’t matter. Can’t wait.
Agreed. I could see Menz following a similar career trajectory going to a major after this album cycle.
Honest question, but are majors still signing bands like them though? Obviously Gaslight was, but even that was a while ago now.
Really like this song. I found After the Party to be hit or miss with songs and haven't liked any of the singles they have been putting out since it's release but was surprised at how much I liked this track. Excited for the album now.
