Normally I would dislike this sort of style change, but I think it's going to work for them. I enjoyed both tracks.

Wow, these are actually really good. Strangers Again is better, but the other one is still solid.

the opposite direction I wanted them to go in, but I feel like it was inevitable considering they're on FBR. Production on both songs is awful and Chrissy's vocals sound so much worse than they actually are. At least 'Almost Forgot' is kind of fun, but 'Strangers Again' is genuinely bad.

I can dig it
Better than anything on that shitty All Time Low album where they tried to be pop but failed embarassingly

'but I feel like it was inevitable considering they're on FBR'

I actually hate how pretty much every band that signs to FBR ends up going in this kinda direction.

They want to sell out, go pop, and make some real money so they no longer have to be "fueled by ramen".

New vid for Strangers Again

And Chrissy is looking H A W T

While I do miss their earlier sound, Chrissy definitely has the pipes for this.

AND THE LOOKS

strangers again sucks

This sounds like one of those songs you hear during an online mixing/mastering YouTube video.
