The Wonder Years - Sister Cities (April 6, 2018) Album • Page 141

The Upsides/the EP are the only two standouts in their career for me. Not very impressive releases but some great melodies and came at a time when I really needed it. The later releases are certainly "better" albums, but all blend together and aside from a few tracks didn't do anything for me at all. We Don't Have Each Other is probably my favorite TWY related release. Shame JJR is on it.

 

Kyoto rips!!!!!!

 

Where at?

 

This is fucking fire I love this hook

 

We got on in center city heading north. It's on the left hand side around Girard, I believe. Nick probably knows better than I do.

 

Heavy Thursday bridge

 

Gonna check tomorrow after work

 

The title track is very well placed, tracks 3-7 are a killer sequence. Can’t believe how much this has grown on me already with how lukewarm my first impressions were

 

U wild as hell

 

Welp Kyoto is their best song yet let's see how the rest stacks up

 

NCTH is my favorite album of their's (haven't heard SC yet) and it's not particularly close for me. Not that I'm one to hold the opinion of the majority in general. So excited to finally here Sister Cities in a few days. I'm fully expecting it to leap above NCTH as my #1

 

Counting crows vibes in the guitar riff on track three

 

I listened to the first song off of the rip and the quality was not very good so it didn't sound good playing through my laptop speakers as I took a hungover shower yesterday

 

Sister cuties still sounds like afi and I'm about it

 

I cannot be tamed

 

Flowers Where Your Face Should Be is maybe my new favorite TWY song. Just beautiful.

 

I was trying to figure out what the chorus of Heavens Gate reminds me of

It reminds me of the chorus of Sister Cities

 

Track five is unreal wow did not expect this band to write s song like this

 

Wow heavens gate. This album is more ambitious than I was expecting

 

This is kind of how I feel(minus the upsides) most of NCTH is just genuinely not fun to listen to and I hate feeling that way

 

Ghost is the best by a mile wtf

 

pretty typical but good penultimate track

 

Haven't listened to SC yet, but I'll never really get the NCTH hate. It's one of my favorite albums ever. I don't think there's genuinely one bad or poorly written song on that record. Every song speaks strongly to me in a different way. I can definitely see myself listening to it for the rest of my life. Whether or not that actually happens, who knows.

 

Great closer. Unreal album

 

It's the album I wanted after suburbia. No traces of pop punk but still emotionally raw and heavy
