    First time I saw Front Bottoms live was in 2013 when they opened up for Bad Books and Kevin Devine came out and performed Maps with them. So cool.

    Maps was the first song I heard by them, got me into them really fast. That gdp split has a couple of their best songs, wolfman is incredible

    great interview mook

    Mountain and Looking Like You Just Woke Up and The Beers arent really all that great imo. I like them, theyre charming like pretty much every TFB song, but they dont do a whole lot for me.

    Plastic Flowers, Twin Size Mattress, and Swimming Pool are my 3 favorites

    I WILL REMEMBER. THAT SUMMER. AS THE SUMMER I WAS TAKING STEROIIIDS. CUS YOU LIiiKKEE A MAN, WITH MUSCLES, AND I LIiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiKE YOU.

    Sorry but that's as good as good can get y'all. Get your ears checked.

    I could see why someone wouldn't like the song. It's a little over the top and silly even for TFB.

    Maybe so, maybe not.

    "Raining" has me back listening to Back on Top and god damn, 2YL > West Virginia > Plastic Flowers is such a good 1-2-3 to end an album.

    2YL is sooo good. Probably in my top 5 by them.

    Is it raining where you are? The only question I could think to ask. Nothing ever hurt soooo bad as the no that you said back.

    Honestly, Back On Top has very few "weaker" songs. Historic Cemetery and Ginger are the only songs I don't think are incredible, and even then I still really enjoy them.

  13. "Ginger"and "2YL" are those weaker spots for me and, similarly, I enjoy them every time I listen. The rest of that album is just so goddamn good

    I love 2YL, partially cause the end reminds me of Close To Me by The Cure.

    2YL is one of their best, the horns make me smile every time. Least favorite on Back on Top is probably Ginger

    Back on top is easily the best. Just so great from start to finish.

    Historic Cementary grew on me. I'd say Ginger is the only meh one.

    Love that album, easily their best.
