The Menzingers - Some Of It Was True (October 13, 2023) • Page 15

Keen to dive into this later. Heard a few on my way to work and loving it, didn't give the singles much of a run thus far.

Album's gonna be so fresh, and I'm stoked.

 

Stoked about the Dublin song because I spent a week hammering Guinness there over the summer. Lmao

 

And Midwestern States.

Insane top 4.

 

Try has major RVIVR vibes in the guitar tones to me.

 

this rules so much

 

was that your silhouette in st stephen's green?
coming over to rescue me
from the worst of myself
from the feeling i no longer felt

i wish you were here with me
i'm all alone in dublin
searching for something
wishing you were here with me

she knows my heart
she knows how to start it

 

I miss these guys sooo much

 

Ultraviolet is destroying me.

 

Yeah that’s my immediate favorite

 

wasnt in love with this but it definitely had its moments. closing two songs are absolutely killer. ultraviolet and the t/t were my other standouts

 

Take it to heart verses early favorite moment.
Try might also be my favorite Tom song ever.

 

this part is so so good

 

Running in the Roar of the Wind is in my top tier menzingers song instantly.

 

That vocal jump on ultraviolet is incredible

 

This production would have put HE much closer to ATP and OTIP on my rankings that's for sure.

 

Another great entry to an outstanding catalog. Love these guys.

 

Will be on repeat all day.

Have been debating buying the release day poster since last night… I don’t need another poster to hang in the office but want it lol

 

I only listened once while commuting on the train, so maybe not the best first listen, but I thought it was decent. Feels like a grower. Standouts were for sure the title track, Ultraviolet, and there was a Tom song in there too, but to be honest I wasn't totally blown over by the project overall.

 

This is really great!

Nobody Stays is immediately one of my favorite Tom songs ever.

 

This is great and will only get better. Love the sequencing and pace of these songs. So many fun melodies on the guitar- which sound amazing with how this was produced.

 

I think this will be a grower.

 

Pretty good, don't particularly love any of it on first listen. Tom sounds great.

 

Guitar tone in the title track is so good. There's enough little flourishes to differentiate how this sounds from previous releases. Liking this a lot so far. Glad it came out in early fall.

 

Early favs: "Some of It Was True," "Come on Heartache," "Take It to Heart," "Ultraviolet."

Wish the closer went somewhere bigger and grander with that epic title.

 

the closer kinda sounds like a more upbeat song off pressure machine (particularly had me thinking in the car outside) and that is a vibe i am very here for
