Last one was kind of a bust outside of 4-5 songs. I'd say it's probably time for them to evolve a little bit, both musically and with their lyrics.
I feel like they've been fairly consistent so far. S/T wasn't mind blowing or anything but I didn't find much to complain about with it other than the lack of progression in their sound. I still had fun listening. I think they need a slight shift in sound and hard shift lyrically. Lets get some more mature themes in there.
I thought the last one was the best, but I agree with you all that the next one needs a lyrical progression...
Is this band still popular? I saw them on the headliner for the self titled but I haven't heard much about them since. The co-headliner they did with Man Overboard is still one of the most fun shows I've been to.
I really dig S/T. It has some of my favorite songs of theirs (Heavy Gloom, Distaste, Nerve, and Mock) but it also has a few songs that are pretty meh. Overall, I don't think dropped the ball but they can do better on LP4.
Yet you've said they have the potential to be as big as ADTR? Which album sucked so bad to make you think that? Lol
