drownmeinestrogen Posted May 9, 2013 Share Posted May 9, 2013 Definitely wasnt knocked off my ass on first listen. On my third listen now, though, and really loving it. Picking out little things I hadn't noticed my first two listens already. I hear some weird imbalance between the left and right ear at times, but I may be imagining it. Also, I can't understand how anyone could think of this as coasting. Even if you look at it as less of a leap than you anticipated, they've still further refined their sound, at the very least. passionbrand 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigSeth Posted May 9, 2013 Share Posted May 9, 2013 haha I didn't say that. Dismissing an opinion isn't the same as saying that person is wrong - I've clearly stated it's okay to dislike it or be disappointed in it. just to clarify, I wasn't directing that at you, though I can understand how it would seem that way Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AdventureIsOutThere Posted May 9, 2013 Share Posted May 9, 2013 Gave it a second full listen. I enjoyed it more than the first full listen, but I guess I just expected it to be more. Screen door is still my favorite. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thestraightedge Posted May 9, 2013 Share Posted May 9, 2013 I keep thinking I hear a lead riff from "Coffee Eyes" in "I Just Want To Sell Out My Funeral".. Pretty cool. I've listened to the record probably 6 or 7 times now. It's definitely not as catchy as Suburbia (at this point anyway, obviously I don't know the words that well yet) but I feel like it has a lot more depth to it + the production is top notch. I'm pretty happy with this effort, very excited to hear it on my turntable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hipsterasfolk Posted May 9, 2013 Share Posted May 9, 2013 Pretty sure anything that sucks will be related to Transit this year. Also, I will maybe listen to this when I get home after work scottheisel 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

taylo234 Posted May 9, 2013 Share Posted May 9, 2013 Giving this my second listen now. There, There is really good. But I cannot get through Madelyn...the vocals are just too over the top for me. It's almost hard to take seriously. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
companyinkrecs Posted May 9, 2013 Share Posted May 9, 2013 Don't worry everyone, it will all sound exactly as you wanted it to when your vinyl arrives. EDIT: Stupid joke becomes worse because I can't say VINYL[s} on this board. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marc32137 Posted May 9, 2013 Share Posted May 9, 2013 Does the site really block adding the s? vinyl. Edit- well, I'll be damned. Good job, mods! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

turnstiles Posted May 9, 2013 Share Posted May 9, 2013 'I want to die in the suburbs' (no one wants to die in the suburbs) second listen. I really like it. (AP can print that) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
youmightbewrong Posted May 9, 2013 Share Posted May 9, 2013 Unless my ears deceive me, this album is fantastic. First listen, and I'm hooked. For me, The Upsides is pretty hard to top, but they have done a damn good job trying. passionbrand, Hobbes and TheRareCreature 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dantheriver Posted May 9, 2013 Share Posted May 9, 2013 I was gonna hold out for the Hot Topic color, but it looks like $18 shipped from Interpunk is gonna be the best deal on this, and the red looks sick so I'm dropping an order now for that.

marc32137 Posted May 9, 2013 Share Posted May 9, 2013 Is that the red or the orange? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chamb117 Posted May 9, 2013 Share Posted May 9, 2013 Is that the red or the orange? haha i was wondering the same thing. i was scared from the start that they'd look too similar in color (from the mockup)... one would hope the red is more of a dark, solid red rather than transparent Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dantheriver Posted May 9, 2013 Share Posted May 9, 2013 Is that the red or the orange? I assumed it was the red, it doesn't make a ton of sense for the band to get copies of the /300 UK variant to take on tour with them. Could be wrong though.

dantheriver Posted May 9, 2013 Share Posted May 9, 2013 Not as legit as free from Amazon Yea I don't have Prime so I would've just spent more money to get my cart total up to $25 for the free shipping. And this is $18.73 on Amazon now, so the Interpunk option was my best one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
