Review Summary: a poppunk classic in EVERY sense of those words

There's a place of Ocean avenue where I use to sit and talk with you
we were both 18 and it felt so right sleeping all day staiyn up all night

When I tried to think of one of the most classic pop punk albums Yellowcard's Ocean avenue was on my top five list for sure. no album better magnifies the past for me like this album does. The crunched riffs the great vocals and the sad violin made me stay up many long nights back in the early 2004. I was in 7th grade then and i learned the words inside and out and vowed to never forget them because they were so important to my live at the time. Well now they arent so important I don't live by the yellowcard code anymore like i did when I was a kid but I still remembered the words.

But anyway on the album. Way away starts the album with a blasting of pop punk fury and theings don't even slow down a bit until the third song which is the name of the album as well: Ocean Avenue. That song means a lot to me on a personel level but the best song on the hole record is Only one. Its a sad song for sure but one that makes me happy on the inside too because i remember it so well from my past.

The song i dont like is called 23. Not like Taylor swift's song 22, haha, 23 is a silly song that doesn't fit with the rest of the album. Its a skipper. But aside from that I love each and every song on the album which is RARE for me. Finally I think Yellowcard really missed the boat (Modest mouse reference) after this album. The rest of them have seem to me like their just trying to copy what they did right on this one. No good Yellowcard, no good!

I can't [Every user on this website]

I kinda skimmed out on listening to Yellowcard, but Lift A Sail was sounding incredible and I feel like I need to get into these guys. Where would you guys suggest I start?

Album would be better if it wasn't so frontloaded and had as much filler.
