Senses Fail - If There Is Light It Will Find You (February 16th, 2018) Album • Page 10

The guitar tones took me right out of renacer. Love the tones on this one.

 

I am happy for SF. I get the sense that the conversation around this album is the biggest they've had in a long time.

 

Seen it brought up quite a few times in Brand New, Alkaline Trio and ETID groups I'm in on FB. Seeing a lot of people talk about it, makes me so happy

 

Pull The Thorns vinyl is only $9 on Amazon

 

Wasn't that long ago, maybe 6 or 7 years ago, when alot of people on AP.net still didn't take kindly to Buddy. How times have changed.

 

Fuckin hell man, I came on this thread to chat Senses Fail and end up on Amazon buying $30 worth of vinyl. Thanks for the heads up haha

 

I get massive Taking Back Sunday vibes from the "i won't lie, i won't lie, i won't lie" parts in "You Get so Alone..."

 

Especially with it screamed at the end. Absolutely

 

so did his wife not die in child birth? the lyrics on first breath really make it sound like she did

 

She did not. He is speaking in a hypothetical situation.

 

there were complications though, and the song is sort of what was going through his mind at the time. thats how he described it somewhere

 

It's funny, the album is so catchy that I forget how dark the lyrical content is. I was thinking about putting this on in the car with my girlfriend but caught myself lol. She likes Senses Fail but I know she's not going to want to listen to a whole album about his wife dying

 

57 on Billboard. A lot better than the last two did at 84 and 109.

 

They posted its their best first week in 10+ years. Dang, congrats to them.

 

Lol I just listened to the new Attila song (idk cause I hate myself) and they say "fuck a Buddy Nielsen" lol what a fucking trash band

 

That was one of the worst songs I’ve ever heard

 

If anyone's interested, a bracket for ITILIWFY is currently going on in the band thread: Band - Senses Fail

 

Not one of the more attractive acronyms haha

 

Bracketeers, Senses Fail has reached the new album

I just came across this album and had never listened to Senses Fail before (just never gave them a chance I guess) and I've listened to this at least 10x already.

Double Cross is so great because often think society tells me I shouldn't listen to "this type" of music at 35. This song kind of eradicates that and makes me realize I'm not going to stop listening to "this type" of music bc it's my passion.

The themes of child birth are very personal because I had a daughter two years ago and that shit is terrifying. Also raising a child can be terrifying. So those songs addressing this area really resonate.

The other songs touch on some stuff that I feel TWY touched on in NCTH and it's done just as well here.

The last song is a great closer and I'm sucker for a great closer. Though I do find myself listening to Clarity after hearing that song. It's a dead ringer for a Jimmy Eat Worls song.

Glad I stumbled on this album. Does any of their other stuff have lyrical content as good as this one?

 

Lyrically I’d say no, this is their best lyrically

 

Let It Enfold You was very cliche, impersonal at times, and bad many times lyrically. From Still Searching on Buddy has pretty much always been solid and very honest in his writing. I think I'd say Renacer is probably overall his best, but this new one is the most personal and that counts for a lot. Hard for me to pick a favorite between Still Searching, Renacer and this one. Everything is really worth checking out though. I still love Let It Enfold You musically.

 

Summed up best

 

Life Is Not A Waiting Room and Renacer are good on the lyrics end of the spectrum
