    My theory was always No Penance got left off because the chorus sounds too similar to Charlie's Army

    whats so funny about that is strawberry mansion has a nearly identical but worse hook than no penance so if thats true they certainly didnt care about stuff sounding like it after the fact haha

    That was the first album in a long time that truly was incredibly relatable for me lyrically. It was like they were speaking about my life. I just fell in love. Plus, the music was so good. 10/10 album

    I like Boy Blue even if the middle section is the same as Green Day's Letterbomb

    Yep, have always thought that. There's more than a little bit of American Idiot on that album, IMO.

    The Flatliners put out Inviting Light like 2 months later and the closer also kinda rips off Letterbomb, even down to the lyrics. Weird coincidence

    It's an album tailor made for when you're turning 30 and having a bit of an existential crisis

    What the fuck happened to this band? Feels like they fell off the face of the earth since their last album 2 years ago. I haven’t heard anything about them regarding music tour or otherwise in some time.

    They toured Some Of It Was True globally. And Greg has become a dad. And they are bringing out a new album next year. They have been plenty active!!

    Apparently the band is gonna be part of this year’s Topps Allen and Ginter baseball card set. The checklist isn’t out yet but someone “close to the band” posted about it on Reddit this week.

    Band has been consistently touring. They did a headliner this year. Last year they did a coheadliner with the Wonder Years. That’s along with all of the other randoms shows they’ve done and they are now growing their families. They can take as much time as they want if it means they keep on making music and are happy/healthy. Bands don’t owe us shit.
