Where is the gatekeeper, keeping these pesky blinkers outta my Trio thread?!?!

 

I love it

 

Definitely one of those albums that you constantly find a different part to appreciate. Today for me it's Worn So Thin's bridge. The whole song of course, but they nailed that bridge goddamn

 

It's one of my favorite Dan songs I think.

 

It’s hard for me to rank right now but man I love this album

Lyrically it’s not connecting as much as some of their other stuff with what I’m dealing with but it’s so good

 

Love that album. The only songs I never listen to are Sober, No Future and Brohemian Rhapsody.

 

I really like how Dan's songs on this album are fast punk tunes that punctuate Matt's rock songs. However, I really hope we get some jams like "Do You Wanna Know?" and "Burned is the House" again in the future. He's terrific at writing interesting pop-rock (if that's even the right term).

 

I feel kinda bad. I'm trying to listen to this more, but so much other good music is being dropped currently.

 

I feel like Stay is one of if not his best written mid tempo croonery song to date.

 

So I did little calculations....I heard it probably +- 200 times (if we counting that I have my speaker on during the night) since it came out...dunno if I can find out on Apple Music somehow?i would love to know if iam right haha

 

I thought some of ya'll were just overexcited when you started proclaiming this as one of the best Trio records. But after a few weeks of constant listening I think I have to agree. Maybe even top three for me!

 

It definitely is, but when i think about ranking it against Goddamnit, Good Morning, Crimson, Infirmary, my head hurts

 

It's only been out a week lol

 

Hitsdailydouble says #9 in sales, first top 10 for them

Says 8,111 sales but if I recall I think their first report is usually low and not sure if streaming is counted? I think billboard comes out Sunday which is the better one obviously

Edit: not sure if they'll stay top 10 cause I see Drake and Travis Scott under them just says 5k in sales and I know they always have massive streaming numbers

 

Doesn't sound right to me.

 

That James guy has a solid list

 

Goodbye Forever and In Vein ❤️

 

In Vein is a top 15 trio song for me. Maybe even top 10
