Weekly Poll: Favorite Yellowcard Album • Page 3

Paper Walls
Southern Air
Ocean Avenue
Lights and Sounds
WYTTSY
S/T
Lift a Sail
One for the Kids

Really hard to rank the first four or five. Also, this band knows how to end an album.

 

I love them all so much, but Southern Air is the one I go back to most often. For me....

Southern Air
Paper Walls
Ocean Ave
S/T
WYTTSY
Lights and Sounds
Lift a Sail
One for the Kids

 

Underdog would be right in the middle for me if we were including it. Better than half their full lengths (at least).

 

This was so tough. I don't think I have a true favorite but went with Southern Air over Ocean Avenue. Honestly I also love Paper Walls and WYTTSY almost as much.

 

PW
LAS=SA
Ocean
Light & Sounds
S/T=WYTT
One for the Kids? Idk I don’t listen to that one

 

PW=S/T
SA=L&S
LaS
OA
WYTTSY
OFTK

 

first of all, all of you are on my shit list for not tagging me in here
second, I always say PW is my favorite but WYTTSY is such a close second
also huge honorable mention to OFTK

 

Paper Walls of course

 

WYTTSY was the album that made me a fan. But PW and SA are the ones I go back to most, so I went with Southern Air.

and I’ve always hated Ocean Avenue

 

I had no idea Lift A Sail was apparently so disliked in comparison to the rest of their discography because it's actually my second favorite album by them.

EDIT: Since everyone else is doing it:

Paper Walls
Lift A Sail
Southern Air
When You're Through Thinking, Say Yes
Lights & Sounds
Yellowcard
One For The Kids
Ocean Avenue

 

I knew Lift a Sail was disliked by a lot of people here, but I'm surprised to see so much hate for the Self-Titled.

 

Same. I remember that being quite well-received when it came out.

 

I don't hate either Lift a Sail or the Self Titled at all. I just don't connect with them the way that I do with their older records. I don't go back to them much at all. I think they are fine records, and I appreciate the music...but they don't move the needle for me like the others. I feel like the really pulled back the reins and started writing more mid-tempo rock songs in Drop C, and it just doesn't do it for me.

 

None of you guys listen to one for the kids anymore? I listen to that more than lift a sail and lights and sounds combined.

 

I listen to it. I just think pretty much everything they did after it is better. Still a good album though

 

This poll inspired me to listen to L&S for some reason. Not my go to YC album but I have to the desire to listen to it from time to time. How I Go, Holly Wood Died, Waiting Game, are so good.

 

Completely underrated record

 

I'll give my input

Southern Air
Ocean Avenue
WYTTSY
Lights and Sounds
Lift a Sail
Paper Walls
Yellowcard
One for the Kids

 

Rough Landing and Hollywood died are the only two I go back to.
One of the most disappointing records I can ever remember as it relates to my excitement level when it first came out.
