Yellowcard Band • Page 332

Someone on Twitter tagged me and said he mentioned my Lift a Sail retrospective in the Twitch stream, but I missed it! Anyone know what he said?

 

Less than a calendar month until I see them for the first time in 18 years.

 

Official Yellowcard Merchandise

 

Yellowcard on tour with Motion City Soundtrack and Plain White Ts in Australia is such a strange sentence to write in 2024.

 

Not sure I've ever signed up for a pre-sale quicker - maybe YC's Aus farewell tour.

 

Nation’s Pop Punk Violinists Still Holding Out for Post-“Ocean Avenue” Boom

 

Clip of the working studio version of “Better Days” is on their Instagram story

 

That sounds incredible. Unbelievably pumped.

 

Fuck that sounds good. Sounds like it could be off Paper Walls

 

Yooo that C# note, is that the highest he’s ever sung in a Yellowcard song yet? So hyped

 

Much as I loved where they were going on self-titled stylistically, Paper Walls was probably my favorite era of Yellowcard and I'm so stoked their new stuff is evolving that sound.

 

I still heard some self titled vibes on the recent EP even if it was sprinkled in with some of that pre Lift A Saul classic sound. Though the good thing about a full length is the more songs there are, the likelier there’s going to be a diverse range of sounds.

Basically

 

Thirteen songs..? This is gonna be so rad!

 

I did not expect a full length. So stoked!!!

 

Holy shit!

 

Here we go!

 

10 to 13 track band. Question is...are you a fan of

the 10s - YC, SA, WYTTSY

OR

the 13s - OA, L&S (14 kinda), PW, LAS

 

13s

 

13s but there are songs on each of those 10s i couldn't live without

 

This isn’t even a question if we make L&S a 14 tracker

 

Lift a Sail is a 13-tracker as well, and is their best album, sooooo

 

13s, easily. I feel like they take a lot of pride in not only their sequencing but the story they are telling throughout the records, and 13 songs gives them more room to complete that process. The Maine also does this very well with incredible sequencing, storytelling and gap tracks/interludes that make the album feel more like a work of art than a collection of songs.

 

That's a curious recording order. Aren't drums usually a priority?
