Yellowcard - Yellowcard (September 30, 2016) Album • Page 61

I just think it falls flat compared to the albums that came before it. Vital will always be my favorite work by them.

 

man, The Hurt Is Gone is moving up to be my favorite on this record. i'm finding more and more to love on here.

 

Does anyone else think that the drum beat that kicks in during the distortion part of Fields & Fences sounds like a heartbeat? On the last track of the last record, it's like a sign that their music will live on.

 

Sold 11,384 in the first week

 

Is the guitar part from Sleep In The Snow also in Saviors Robes?

 

Just based on what we've released/fan reaction/what we wanted to have fun and enjoy playing.

 

As of right now it doesn't look likely unfortunately.

 

Thanks for your thoughts, that was awesome to read.

 

Hey now, don't short us, it was 14,775!

 

Yup.

 

Two Big If songs? I thought only Empty Street?

 

Ryan, are there any alternative track listings to any of the albums before they appear as they do now? What is usually the process of selecting which track goes where in the ordering?

 

I think he's talking about Sean O'Donnell's album

 

not on THIS album, on the Sean O'Donnell album

 

Haha oops! I was going off of what someone else told me. That's awesome! Congrats Ryan! Debuted pretty well on the charts too.

 

damn, this tour snuck up on me. didn't realize my dates were next weekend!! like, i'm already scheduled at work, fuck. i'm gonna try and get to that Sac date, someone else can cover my shift, to hell with it

 

tonight was rly fun. been seeing this band since they came back in 2011 and p much grew up to/with them and it was cool to get to relive their discog.

lift a sail & transmission home were definitely the highlights of the set. it makes me sad how underrated that album was and I'm still kicking myself for missing that show (and illuminate!!!) v happy I finally got to see these live tho

setlist was super good and super long. despite this I enjoy complaining about everything so I will say that I wish they'd swapped out cut me mick for paper walls, be the young for southern air, and October nights for rough draft or cigarette : -)

v excited to see them again on Tuesday and maybe Wednesday too if it doesn't sell out by day of

as an aside, why do people mosh to songs they clearly don't know????????

 

does anyone want to do song rankings

 

I've been sort of thinking about song rankings the past few days. I wanted to do top 20 songs, but when I listed all my favorites, I got up to 48. I'm still figuring out how to cut that down, if not to 20, then at least to 25 or 30.

 

I could probably do 20.

 

I could do an Ideal Setlist. 25 songs and all.

 

Cool setlist, still gotta find philly tickets
Sell two to me and @jordalsh

 

Got it. Here'a (a version) of my dream setlist

1.) The Takedown
2.) Always Summer
3.) For You, and Your Denial
4.) Surface of the Sun
5.) The Sound of You and Me
6.) Sing for Me
7.) Lift a Sail
8.) The Deepest Well
9.) Sleep in the Snow
10.) Words, Hands, Hearts
11.) View from Heaven
12.) City of Devils
13.) I'm a Wrecking Ball
14.) One Year, Six Months
15.) How I Go
16.) Savior's Robes
17.) Southern Air
18.) Rocket
19.) Cut Me, Mick
20.) Starstruck

Encore
21.) Convocation
22.) Gifts and Curses
23.) Sorry, Try Again
24.) Fields and Fences
25.) Ocean Avenue

I imagine 11-15 being an acoustic set.

EDIT: Had to swap out "Telescope" for "Lift a Sail," because goddamn. Still, "Telescope" is such an amazing, underrated song.

 

So does anyone have What Appears and the Hurt is Gone acoustic tracks?

 

I got the FYE version of the album with the acoustic songs. I love them both! I'm not really a fan of "Hurt" but when I heard the acoustic version, I really liked it and made more sense to me in that form. I strongly prefer it.

Speaking about song lists.
I made my own "version" of the album, I took out the original full band version of Hurt and replaced it with the acoustic one.

This is how I ordered the songs

Rest in Peace
What appears
Got yours
Hurt (acoustic)
Leave a light on
Wrecking ball
Empty street
Saviors Robes
Set Afire
Fields Fences

In my YC jam playlist I put Three Flights Up right before Empty Street. I know it's not the same key and stuff but I like the combo.
