Derek™ Posted April 22, 2020 Share Posted April 22, 2020 Imagine you’re in a band and have to basically repurpose your own album art from 2004 – an era when you were relevant to the scene – as a means of baiting people into checking out your 2020 output. Con artists. I wonder how many ex-Hot Topic employees will see this release, recognize the noose-heart, and think wow I really liked that album a decade and a half ago and I guess this will sound just as good ‘cause why else would they use the same art again right I mean it’s got to be decent lol a return to form maybe I dunno guess I’ll at least stream it.

It actually isn't gatefold. that is strange that its not a gate fold. I know not all doubles are gatefolds but I thought this would be for sure. its almost a standard today especially for double LPs. and especially since the CD is a gatefold. the printed sleeves have become pretty standard too so double whammy. 'the canyon' release on hopeless was very nice, gatefold and printed sleeves. starting in 2016 hopeless records made the nicest vinyl releases for their artists. you kind of punched me in the gut with the info you gave me. lol.

mychemicalrecords Posted April 24, 2020 Share Posted April 24, 2020 Really loving this album! The guest appearances by members of blink-182 and Beartooth are awesome! I think The Lighthouse and Bloody Nose have to be my favorite tracks. Definitely hear some Lies for the Liars underpinnings. Juturna90 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is surely a contender for worst album of the year just based on the track names alone...

Jepha was asked in an interview about this today and he said they didn’t know that the name was already used when they picked it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be honest, I'm surprised he hasn't included the initials of an entire country in his user name, just to add further prestige. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since when is tug back?? Also, actually decided to give this a listen at least for the Jason Aalon Butler track. Actually enjoyed the album, color me surprised. Better than some of their other recent work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
