Extremely long wait, but I'm very stoked.

Hope to see them in a small club this year

 

That album cover is real nice

I'm not up on The Movielife, RIYL?

 

I would say old Saves The Day, Midtown, Polar Bear Club, Crime In Stereo, Set Your Goals type stuff

 

I will preorder as soon as that goes live. Fuck yes!

 

Very excited to hear this.

 

Yes please!

 

@JaytotheGee Where do you find news about this? I don't see anything but this post.

 

Seconded this. They're basically one of the best of the early-00's punk/pop-punk bands. Vinnie was also on "This Will Be The Death of Us" by Set Your Goals, a band and a song that owes a pretty sizable debt of influence to The Movielife.

 

SO READY!

That wait, tho

 

AltPress posted it earlier but it's deleted now so looks like they fucked up haha

 

very curious to hear this

 

I remember seeing Set Your Goals do a Movielife cover set at Bamboozle with Vinnie on vocals. Before they reunited I thought that was the closest we were gonna get.

 

I saw them a couple weeks ago in Boston and it was only Vinnie and Brandon from the original lineup, they didn't even have a second guitarist. So I'm interested in seeing who played on this.

 

I don't hate it but I don't love it nearly as much as Polar Bear Club or Set Your Goals

 

Hoooolyyyy shiittt yessssssssssssssss

 

listen to that whole album 40 Hour Train Back To Penn, SYG and PBC both took a ton of influence from the band/album, along with other bands from the scene/time

 

So stoked

 

Tracklist added to OP.

Surprised Future Feeling isn't on here. I'm kind of glad it isn't since I thought it was just ok

 

I am so fucking excited to hear this.

 

If you are interested in hearing an example of The Movielife listen to their songs "Face or Kneecaps" or "Ship To Shore". I don't think Vinnie's other band I Am The Avalanche or solo stuff was that much different either. I'd suggest "Two Runaways" by IATA and Vinnie's solo album "I don't believe you" and "you don't have to die alone".

 

veryy into this and also very interested to see how it sounds....part of me is expecting something in the vein of just another IATA record, which wouldnt be BAD, but just interested to see how much of the old movielife sound they bring back.

 

The IATA S/T and Avalanche United are both perfect albums imo

 

WAIT WHAT

 

Yeah I guess I'm not expecting anything drastically different from IATA which is perfectly okay with me

who knows though!
