Remember when I used to post threads about this band all the time? aaanyway: [youtube]aJdpFh2VjOE[/youtube] Well, I'm looking forward to it.
absolutely loved their debut, but everything else has left me a little disenchanted. i'll be listening to this, regardless.
I still like all of their first three albums to some degree, then when M&H came out I enjoyed it at first then went off it. I think the songs they've released since then have been pretty promising anyway.
I hope it's better than their last effort. Everything after Hours has been a little bland for me so I'm hoping this is step up. That said, I don't think this band has ever released a song that I don't like...Well, apart from their Boys Are Back In Town cover.
I only liked Casually Dressed for like two weeks or something - but, I just want to say that I really miss when people made occasionally witty news heading-esque thread titles for albums/videos hahaha.
Album leaked, it's great, if you were thinking of listening to it do so. When they were talking about Memory and Humanity being more technical and aggressive this is really what it should have sounded like.
I think for people who were disappointed by their last two or even three albums, this'll probably be what they were looking for. I guess the way I would describe it is that with TDTT they expanded on the melodic rock elements of their sound a lot more, and this one is kind of the same but with their heavier elements. To me there are points on this album where they actually sound like a seasoned metal/hardcore band.
I liked Rookie of the Year, and that 'same old song on a brand new stereo' song, I just haven't listened to em that much. I'll check out the new stuff.
