PO: The Get Up Kids


Recommended Posts

I think a lot of people agree with you. Those same people seem to like Guilt Show much more than I do. ;)

 

The odd thing is I think the Guilt Show and On a Wire songs are great on the live album (which I would buy in a heartbeat if it got pressed).  Not sure what's going on there!  Going through On A Wire again, I'm pretty impressed with it musically.  It's quite a leap from STWHA and it's great that they took that risk.  It just isn't for me.

 

I find it interesting there hasn't been any talk of There Are Rules.  I didn't love it, but I didn't hate it either.  It wasn't an amazing comeback album, but it wasn't laughably bad (like a lot of comeback albums are).

 

All this GUK talk has made me throw on STWHA, been a while since I've listened to it.

I was checking out There Are Rules last night and I kept thinking to myself, "If this wasn't a TGUK album I'd really love it." But expecting what I expect from TGUK, I can't get into it.

Sorry for being somewhat unrelated to the topic but my local second hand record store has a near mint copy of the black / green first press of Say Anything - is a real boy for $40. Would you say this is a good deal?

Why not ask this in the Is A Real Boy repress thread...?
