The Dangerous Summer - Mother Nature (June 14, 2019) Album • Page 74

Blind Ambition is that song for me. AJ is better at that than any other songwriter I listen to

 

Agreed... he digs real deep. I’ve always found a way to deeply relate to his stuff. And the emotion he puts into the songs and vocals just sells it even more... it’s crazy.

 

This album is really fuckin good

 

As someone who discovered the band with this album and has since invested a lot of time in RFTS and War Paint I'll say all three are fantastic. I'd probably rank Mother Nature just above War Paint, and RFTS at the top. But I prefer the grittier vocals on the new record, and like that it is a well-executed change of pace from those more pop-punk/emo sounding revered early records. Starting Over/Slow Down is their best song imo. Seeing them in December, cannot wait.

 

Mother Nature is really resonating right now...

Moved to where I am now a few years ago, life happened, and now I just feel disconnected... it’s like I just want to get back home to the people and things that make me happy.

Music is powerful man, it just like seeps right in to who you are... it’s wild. Feeling that now more than ever.

 

Anyone know what Mother Nature songs are being played following RTFS on the tour?

 

I still don’t love this record :/ going to the anni tour though!

 

Tour doesn’t start until tomorrow, we should know by the end of the week.

 

Hopefully it's tracks 2-7 inclusive, plus the title track. That would be a perfect seven-song album imo. Perfect.

 

Setlist from Pittsburgh according to my buddy

All of RFTS (obviously) and the first six songs off of Mother Nature in order. Closing with Starting Over/Slow Down

 

That seems logical but omits the three songs I wanna hear most that they haven’t played yet

 

Did they start the encore with the voice message?

 

He said yes.

also said it was super emotional for AJ

 

Gonna grab this so fast

 

Wish that shirt acknowledged the old band members but that is pretty cool.

 

Months later and Better Life is still my favourite song off the new album. Maybe because I'm a new dad but damn if isn't the perfect blend of emotions at a tidy 2:34. Such a perfect moment in the arc of the album too that makes Consequence of Living feel like a rebirth of sorts.

 

Weak from whiskey and powder, love
You let me crawl out of bed
I know you see me in better light
I know you see who I am
I still love how the windows paint your room
That's a comfort I want too
Tracin' the steps to where I fell in love with you

 

I can't wait to watch this show

 

This is splendid and all but I NEED them to end on Where Were You When The Sky Opened Up.

 

I am so stoked for Nashville

 

gdi that looks like a shitty Bella Canvas shirt or otherwise I would be all over that

 

I’m sad because the venue for Portland shut down and I’m not sure they’ll find another spot.

 

didn't this exact scenario happen literally last year lol

 

This current venue that closed initially opened when a different venue shut down, so yes haha. Pretty bummed, was going to see the Homesafe tour there too.

 

what venue are you referring to? eventbrite has it at Paris Theatre which I think is still open
