Same. I enjoy it, just not as much as I was hoping to.

 

After a few days of trying to figure it out, I figured out that Not Strong Enough is similar to Summertime by My Chem. Verses, choruses and bridge build up are pretty sonically the same. The synths and keys throughout the song remind me of summertime as well.

 

Anyone else think the louder songs (not strong enough) on the vinyl sounds like shit, not unlike punisher or the new Paramore ??

 

I’ll tell ya, Punisher sounds like absolute dogshit on wax.

 

This is amazing - what an achievement. Had no idea this could happen over here. Pleased for them.

 

I have to disagree, the one that I have sounds great. The transition between DVD Menu and Garden Song is even better on the vinyl.

 

Absolutely wild that they sold more and charted higher than then new Fall Out Boy album. Well deserved success

 

It’s cause they’re better than FOB

 

Are you saying I should wait for a… Heatwave?

 

I keep meaning to give this some more listens in full to let it soak in, but $20 instantly makes me want to listen to Little Oblivions. goddamn what an album

 

Midnights still???

 

gotta catch’em all

 

I would imagine this solidifies they remain a band moving forward. Unless they pull a Fun. Haha

 

they actually like each other tho

 

The acclaim and first-week sales are well-earned. This record is amazing. Planning on going to the Red Rocks show.

 

Finally listened and it's beautiful and haunting and everything I wanted

 

I will never be able to express myself as smoothly as they do it right on the spot in front of a camera hahh

 

Oh man I have to show my mom that clip of them talking about Hardy for like two full minutes lol she’s obsessed with him.

 

Just checked it out hearing that name for the first time tbh ;d but I'm so glad to stumble upon Colour Revolt second time within a week. We've got Balance and Composure back, so maybe there's still a chance to hear some new songs from them too ;u

 

Julien often speaks in the type of sentences that you’ll get if you just keep pressing words that come up on iPhone predictive text lol

 

There was a recent post on the Taylor Swift subreddit about how she has such a huge vocabulary (it got lots of opposing comments if anyone was wondering) and immediately after reading the post I said, “Have you ever listened to a Julien Baker interview/podcast/song?” I love the way she is with words, but I will admit I do have to look up words she uses occasionally lmao

 

The only Hardy song I’ve heard is Wait In The Truck and good god if there was ever music that is just perfectly not for me, it’s that.
