¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Posted June 9, 2011 Share Posted June 9, 2011 is really good. so far I feel like ive enjoyed a number of records this year, which is weird because I generally dont like anything anymore. wonder years did a good job with this record, even if they talk about their hometown in every song.

jonnywreck Posted June 9, 2011 Share Posted June 9, 2011 off of a single listen, i'm pretty unimpressed. it's definitely a more focused record, but i miss the double time tempos. as far as the lyrics go - i feel as if they just took the last album's lyrics and rewrote them to fit the melodies of this album. it's not a bad album, but it's wholly underwhelming.

travis Posted June 9, 2011 Share Posted June 9, 2011 Yea this album rules, been listening to it for a few days now. First thing thats gotten me to take the new Touche Amore out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hipsterasfolk Posted June 9, 2011 Share Posted June 9, 2011 I enjoy it a lot, You Made Me Want To Be a Saint is by far my favorite. Their albums have to grow on me, I miss old Wonder Years when they used to play Fruit Punched at shows :/ But it's still solid Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rip Posted June 10, 2011 Share Posted June 10, 2011 Will be waiting to get my copy from No Sleep before listening, but dear god I'm excited for this! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lokithelion Posted June 10, 2011 Share Posted June 10, 2011 If you think they just re-wrote the lyrics to the last record listen more carefully. There are a lot of references and similarities but that's because this record is about realizing it's not easy to live the way he said he wanted to on the last one. Seriously, this is a grower.

motorbike Posted June 10, 2011 Share Posted June 10, 2011 not as good as upsides but still very solid. "came out swinging" and "my life as a pegion" are definitely my favorites so far. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
riddle350 Posted June 10, 2011 Share Posted June 10, 2011 Also Steve Evetts(sp?) made this sound fucking bangin! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
