RyanSmithers got a reaction from mmhmm in SMLXL vinyl thread for Relient k

RyanSmithers got a reaction from No This Is Patrick in The Mondo Records Thread - You think limited? Will sell fast?
In for a Rogue One! Stoked.
While I agree that Rogue One is top tier...I can think of at least one other Disney Star Wars movie that is objectively much worse than Solo....once you get past Harrison Ford not playing the character, I really don't have much problem Solo. And the soundtrack to it is fantastic. I just wish we would've gotten the expanded version for Solo's release as we're getting for this considering that the expanded edition was released digitally like this. Oh well.

RyanSmithers got a reaction from Deathbyart in Po now: Greyhaven - This Bright and Beautiful World (04.15)
also, the fact that these guys haven't apparently moved 450 lp's yet, to me, shows how criminally underrated they are as a band!!!!

RyanSmithers got a reaction from zaoza in Every Time I Die - Album 9
holy smokes....I think @Justinadamk nailed it. they had long standing problems (some reasonable, others not...like your bro being married to someone who believes in silly things is not a good reason to hate your brother) that the manager/MGMT was able to keep from sinking the ship. Once the manager left, it clearly unraveled everything from both sides' posts, that seems to be agreed upon. What happened next is the classic he said/she said stuff that is so sad to watch play out from the outside. I hope time changes things, if for no other reason than for brothers to come back together and be brothers. I know my brother and I have some fairly big philosophical differences, but it can't get in the way of caring for each other. You can't say "love and peace" and then be unloving to others close to you and expect people on the outside to not be suspicious. It just sucks that this is all so public...

RyanSmithers reacted to richardp in Every Time I Die - Album 9
Man this shit is depressing. I'm sure there's definitely merit to what Keith is saying, but I also work in the mental health field and see this kind of behavior ALL the time. As someone previous pointed out, Keith constantly uses language in interviews and posts where he is projecting the person he wants to be out there, and is really actually in a mental spiral where everyone around you seems like they're out to get you and they're not, yet he's gaslighting himself that HE'S fine and everyone else is fucked.
The whole thing sucks and it honestly sucks even worse to see it happen in public like this. Never thought Every Time I Die would be the Hardcore Oasis.

RyanSmithers got a reaction from Snaro in PO: Ghoti Hook - Sumo Surprise
I also would’ve tried to get the super limited one, but was a few minutes late as I got distracted and it sold out. I’m still stoked to own this since I never thought it’d ever come out. Total middle school nostalgia. So much fun. Thank you Tooth and Nail for releasing this album!

Same...not what I was hoping for from them...musically still more interesting than some, but I kept waiting for it to go next level, and it just doesn't...waiting for the next single...glad I didn't blind preorder...

RyanSmithers reacted to V3XED in PO: Norma Jean All Hail 10/25
Went back to it for a couple listens, much better than I remembered.
Though, still not 'top 3' for them I don't think, but def. some bangers.

Maybe spin it and see. I really like it. Might be one of my favs from them. Landslide Defeater, Safety Last, and Anna are incredible.

RyanSmithers reacted to rickydenim in Thrice - Horizons/East
Thrice is my favorite band and they definitely did lose me on a lot of the last 2 albums but I'm really liking these first 2 songs. They tracked this themselves yeah? Is this the first time since Beggars? Perhaps the studio/producers got in the way a bit on the last few.
I'm hoping for more energy and vocal dynamics but also completely down for songs like 'Robot' - definitely getting Beggars/Alchemy/MM vibes so far which gives me hope!

RyanSmithers got a reaction from Panties Hank in Thrice - Horizons/East
Me personally, I’m not a fan of Dustin’s solo work because I’m not a fan of folk and indie music really at all. So, I wish that he’d have kept that style of singing in his solo stuff, but once his solo stuff got really going, he incorporated it into his Thrice stuff. And it just fells like they always now get stuck in mid tempo songs (probably where some hear the Dad rock).
As far as Alchemy and Beggars sounding so aligned, that’s actually most likely because the did both albums themselves. Teppei did all of it, so they all have a very similar production quality, namely recorded in their home studio before they moved to Washington or whatever.
I'm not mad they have gone a different direction than I wanted. And obviously I’m a big fan of them, cuz I’m still here checking out their music, but like you said, it could be that it’s not for me anymore. Which is a bummer. Glad for everyone who loves it.
