New Found Glory Band • Page 107

I mostly really liked radiosurgery on release and mostly really like it now

Anthem for the unwanted is so much fun

 

It's very direct which is a bit jarring considering what these guys tend to write about most the time. It's a beautiful sounding record though!

 

Put on Radiosurgery again after all the talk and I forgot how much I love this and how catchy it is.

The chugginess of the guitars, the sing-along/breakdown nature of the choruses are all fantastic!

 

I also came way around on it over the years. Used to think NWAF was above it but that’s totally changed the past 5 years.

 

Funny how later work recontextualizes it. For my money, Radiosurgery and Makes Me Sick are the only good-all-the-way-through albums after Coming Home

 

I think NWAF is the one I come back to the least

 

“I’m Not The One” is such a jam

 

IMO Catalyst is too

 

Looking at Last.fm, I've listened to the new acoustic album more than I have Resurrection. Sooo, that and Forever are the least played by a pretty big margin.

 

Favorite song off NWAF?

 

47 or Tangled Up

 

Came out before Coming Home, but I agree! Catalyst was actually the first album to truly bring me into the pop punk world.

Specifically it was the video for Failure’s Not Flattering that did it. I used to watch Loaded on Fuse and tape them on my parents DVR haha.

Just realized From the Screen to Your Stereo 2 was after Coming Home. I love that one too, huge part of my childhood.

 

Rank Resurrection, Forever and FOAM.

 

FOAM >>> Resurrection > Forever

 

This is just cruel.

 

Resurrection >> Forever > FOAM

They’re all below average to bad

 

Fire, Ready, Aim > Ready, Aim, Fire

 

Anyone a fan of “This Isn’t You” off NWAF? I think it’s one of the better tracks on there.

 

Looove that one

 

I can never remember how like 80% of NWAF sounds

 

I can see the second half being kinda forgettable except for “This Isn’t You”

 

It wasn't my first pop punk album overall(All Killer No Filler) but it was the first that was the most poppy and made me love pop punk and New Found Glory. For that I'm grateful as it jumpstarted my love for music and helped me find some of my favorite bands!

 

Tearing my hair out on what the first couple bars of the Bloom chorus reminds me of

 

It’s definitely Hurricane by Something Corporate lol

 

all time favorite band - but I’m not a fan of these new acoustic songs at all. I’m still seeing them in Feb for the acoustic tour.
