fireyred77 Posted May 9, 2013 Share Posted May 9, 2013 There is no excuse for the last track on this album. I'm sorry, you cannot copy and paste the choruses of the singles from the album and put them together into one song like that and expect us to believe that you truly worked hard on every single track on this record. There's a difference between a recurring theme and a copy and paste. billya 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
parkinglot Posted May 9, 2013 Share Posted May 9, 2013 album is so bland. the singles they released were by far the best tracks. upsides is still my favorite release, probably because i was in grade 10 when i first heard it...and now im only 19 and the band seems to have lost their flare to me already.

There's a difference between a recurring theme and a copy and paste. It's their art at the end of the day. You can't say that they didn't work hard. I don't think that that song shows a half-assed effort at all. This was their vision for how they wanted to close the record. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drewberinger Posted May 9, 2013 Share Posted May 9, 2013 Downright incorrect? That's almost as bold a statement as saying that the previously released tracks were in the lower half of this album (which I found to be the total opposite). it is downright incorrect. They definitely didn't coast on this record. It's okay if you dislike it but to say they didn't try hard or they just phoned in everything is wrong. And it's okay if you have the total opposite opinion as me. I don't give a shit. But everyone here has only heard the album as of 8 or so hours ago and everyone is already making snap judgments on this album, which is why I'm not taking anyone's opinion too seriously. There is a lot of nuance and really cool stuff musically on this album that their previous albums didn't have. I didn't truly start to appreciate this album until a few weeks after I first heard it. So give it some time. Or just blow it off, I don't care. YesPlease 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's a difference between a recurring theme and a copy and paste. it's definitely not a cut and paste, listen to the album again, maybe give it 5 or 7 more listens.

We've all done it. chamb117 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

searos Posted May 9, 2013 Share Posted May 9, 2013 Honestly I know 2 other bands that have done an ending like that and every time i like it. It closes thing to adjourn really well. Like it or not they definitely worked their asses off on this album. There are parts where I feel will be growers but there are a lot of instant grabs. The album is powerful and does not lose the energy. Went back and listened to Suburbia and now can't decide which one I like more. There is more depth and better lyrics on this album but Suburbia was catchier. I will let it grow but loving it so far. YesPlease 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chamb117 Posted May 9, 2013 Share Posted May 9, 2013 on first listen it sounds like the weaker parts of suburbia. i need drew to confirm whether or not my first impression is valid, though. my first impressions for upsides and suburbia were spot on but i heard this album is nuanced so who knows.
