Shelby Posted August 3, 2021 Share Posted August 3, 2021 Song almost tricked me into thinking it was good until possibly the shittiest payoff ever after an OK buildup near the end. How is this band still signed to Epitaph if their most limited variant from their last shitty album is still available 4 years later? This band will ride their old good members coattails into the ground. RIP Tom. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zaoza Posted August 3, 2021 Author Share Posted August 3, 2021 Haha this new song made me put on the Deer Leap split and remembering the good days. Still anticipating new stuff from OHYO. Shelby 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Especially the epitaph thing… what friend do they have in the accounting dept that is covering for them while they release these mediocre albums that collect dust? They need to start off with a MUCH smaller pressing this time. 1 hour ago, zaoza said: Haha this new song made me put on the Deer Leap split and remembering the good days.

MacDonals Posted August 3, 2021 Share Posted August 3, 2021 I'll continue to give them a try digitally, but the newer stuff probably won't make it to my vinyl collection. I do highly recommend Assorted Works, some of their best songs on that (including Deer Leap split songs). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Derek™ Posted August 3, 2021 Share Posted August 3, 2021 How many (if any) members are still present from the WIE days? Harmlessness has some great moments as well but anything past that and I'm out. I would be very surprised if this new album did anything for me but I concede that the art is killer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I already had all the individual releases so thankfully didn't have to give them any money for this. I agree it's a great release though. 6 minutes ago, Derek™ said: How many (if any) members are still present from the WIE days?

Derek™ Posted August 3, 2021 Share Posted August 3, 2021 Those runtimes would be enticing if they were from just about any other band dabbling in post-whatever. Side C/D especially. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah it’s just a five piece now (David F. Bello (vocals/guitar), Chris Teti (guitar/vocals/bass/programming), Joshua Cyr (bass/vocals), Katie Dvorak (vocals/synth), and Steven K. Buttery (drums)) but there’s some dope callbacks on this one from prior records and releases Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It isn't terrible but doesn't compare to the band when Nicole was a member for me. I still don't fully trust you (😄) but would you say the new album has a chance at topping either of the first two for you? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The guitarist played trumpet and the singer was on maybe 3 songs singing stuff he didn't write because Tom quit.
