thanks for fixing the youtube link, for some reason it didn't work when I tried to add it in.

Song didn't really impress me but I'm excited for this.

Had no idea they are a duo now. I hope it's better than their last record. That song they released a few weeks ago was pretty good though. Checking this out now!

sounds like they're going for more of an indie rock-like vibe judging from the single. then again it's only one song so who knows.

Great news, their last album was pretty underwhelming but I think they have the potential to release an album as good as Forget And Not Slow Down again. For some reason I really like the idea of Theissen and Hoopes being Relient K and other guys as touring members. It's always been about the dynamic of the two Matts and I always found it extraneous when they had three guitarists, so it's a welcome change.

I'm surprised Look On Up isn't on this but it's pretty dang solid as a standalone single.

Also, LOL at calling them "Christian Pop Punk." That descriptor is about ten years late, ever since Forget And Not Slow Down I wouldn't call them pop punk, and their songwriting is diverse enough I wouldn't call them a "Christian" band any more than a group like U2.

I get the feeling that you haven't listened to enough pop punk, or Christian music for that matter.

Christian Pop Punk

Almost as bad as Christian Dubstep Metalcore, for those who remember ChugChugWob.
