This album is great but Oh Common Life >>> imo.

Not sure how I feel about the new single yet. Need to hear it in the context of the album. But I’m glad they seem to be working toward something new.

Nah, this is significantly better than Oh, Common Life ;)



@Slex, lol yeah I can see that. His vocals are definitely more suitable for pop punk. Hoping if they’re doing a new album it’s more similar to this or their debut

I can’t argue against people who prefer Gospel - it’s damn good. Anecdotally, my father passed away not too long before Oh, Common Life, so I have a very strangely personal connection to that album; it literally described much of what I had gone through and hit precisely the right nerves at precisely the right time. Still hard for me to listen to occasionally, because of the sour memories it harks, but that’s just a testament to its power imo.

^ nothing like a personal connection. That sucks but I’m glad that album helped get you through it



The new song is on streaming services now. I’m still so excited they’re back

For sure. I thought these guys were done but I'm pumped to get something new from them, and it sounds like they're taking a different direction based on the new single (which is scary, but probably a good thing).

God I remember seeing these guys in cheap VFW Halls and like thirty other people not long after 'We Are Everywhere' came out.

Vocals seem par for the course when it comes to the genre, didn't have trouble getting into them at all

I've literally been waiting for someone to comment on this album lol. I'm hoping to review it if I find the time



10 years later and it's a classic imo. I'd rather listen to this than the wonder years at this point. really hope they come back

I love this band, probably my favorite pop-punk band of the late 00s - early 10s crop these days. The single they released like two years ago was interesting.

I do like this album a lot but think OH COMMON LIFE is superior in just about every conceivable way
