Yellowcard - Childhood Eyes (July 21, 2023) • Page 8

when i revisited L&S i forgot how sad and dark that album is, i got it on sale on vinyl from smartpunk and was thinking 16 year old me really fucked hard with this album but it's depressing as hell heh

 

Sometimes I think Lift A Sail is their best album. Every year I tend to love it a bit more

 

It’s Lights & Sounds and Futures on rainy days/nights for me. Has been for years.

 

“Atlanta” on a Saturday hell yeah

 

F*cking SICK

 

Great trio of bands, really want to get to this

 

YC really hate Canada nowadays apparently

 

This is a no-brainer for me. I wonder if they’ll have new music too

 

Seeing Yellowcard at these monster venues is going to be an absolute trip after spending 20 years sweating my ass off at Irving Plaza. They are probably so pumped.

 

I banned Blossom in 2013 for traffic purposes and haven't been back since and swore I would never go again, but I *may* think about going just to see Yellowcard and then leaving before TEB.

 

They're playing the same venue Yellowcard played last summer in Chicago and (nearly) sold out, so that's probably not a great sign for my hopes of getting cheap tickets for this. Seems like too much fun to pass on though.

 

No minneapolis or Milwaukee? Weak. Would have been a good show!

 

This thread inspired a discography run yesterday. Lift a Sail is the one I've come back to the least through the years (besides One for the Kids). It has some of the "biggest" sounding songs of their career, but they fall flat without LP's drumming. The s/t record doesn't have that problem - not on LP's level but it's not a noticeable weakness. Ridiculous hypothetical, but I'd love to hear the version of that album that exists in the timeline where LP is still in the band.

 

I don’t think Lift a Sail gets made with LP in the band though

 

Fair, which is why I say it's a ridiculous hypothetical

 

The most underrated album in the discography is the self-titled album, imo. There’s some great stuff happening on it and feel like it’s the album that’s brought up the least.

 

LP is a beast! i miss him on the skins as well.

 

Full press release of new collab album: Yellowcard Announce New Collaboration Album

 

Has one if their best songs too (A Place We Set Afire)

 

I've consistently said it's my favorite album from the band, would love for more people to fall in love with it too! The songwriting is so sharp, the guitar tones are immaculate, the drums hit so hard (and so do the emotions). It was a great swansong, even if I am VERY glad to have the band back.

 

I'm a pretty casual fan of these guys but The Hurt is Gone is easily one of their best songs

 

that's quite a casual way to drop the title and existence of a new album haha

 

Pretty sure it’s referring to the Hammock release
