Taking Back Sunday Band • Page 477

I truly don’t see how you could like Goddamnit, MICF and Good Mourning but not Infirmary

 

Insane

 

Mr.Chainsaw is the best Alk Trio song sorry

 

Followed closely by Crawl

 

Oh yeah, what thread was this again? Lol
I came to see if there was any discussion on the new album. It's now occuring to me that there miht be a separate thread tho. Will look now. But, in short, i love a few songs, and this isn't a terrible record, just kinda samey for much of it (particularly the middle tracks). But don't tell the band. I adore them and wouldn't want to break their spirits. Plus, the ones i love, i really love. Well, mostly S'old.

follow the format

 

I wish that song had been released on a proper album. It’s out of sight out of mind for me, unfortunately. But every time I get reminded of it, I listen to it again, and yeah it’s a real toe tappin, finger snapper.

 

Thank a god that John convinced Mark to not settle for 8 songs.

 

toe tappin', finger snappin' son of a bitch.

 

this one should've been released as a single, soo good, hits hard, classic TBS style. wish they played it live too

 

they played it last year a few times. The only time I’ve ever seen them play it was with John on lead vocals during the Spencer Chamberlin tour.

 

oo nice how was it with john singing?

 

That tour with Spencer and John singing leads had a great setlist. Very WYWTB heavy (think they played Number Five AND Bonus Mosh).

I remember it being really fun but I can't recall how either John or Spencer sounded. The crowd was so loud that their vocals just got lost in the noise. Honestly, that's every TBS show I've seen lol

 

this is neat just found on their youtube account

 

this is so 2009 cute

 

This song/album was my introduction to TBS. Used to have a shirt with that lion on it

 

A work of art, just like the album.

 

Until yesterday TBS was probably my biggest blind spot in this entire genre - I had never heard a full album and only really knew Cute Without the E and MakeDamnSure. I just finally finished going through their discography and I'm shocked I waited this long, I really enjoyed it. Definitely think the first four albums are better than the second four but I didn't really think any were BAD on first listen. I'd consider myself a fan now, I could see myself returning to them a lot

Now my only other huge emo blind spot I can think of is Thursday lol

 

Yeah but how do you feel about New Again?

 

I remember seeing TBS tour with Thursday. Kind of a weird pairing in retrospect but what a show.

 

I like the idea of someone without preconceived notions or history coming into the band and including New Again in the stronger half of their discography.

The other implication that 152 is in the lesser half is a bummer, though. When my TBS listening gets an uptick in the spring, I really think that’s gonna remain my top listening preference.

 

I remember that tour, The Colour Revolt and The New Regime (Ilan Rubin's band) opened at my date. So good.
