Alex is a better singer than Matt but I think ATL is a little TOO pop punk for what Mark probably wanted long term if that makes any sense....
"Rescuing a tiger from a tree" is also a sexual manoeuvre but I wouldn't attempt it unless you're a real expert.
Stuff like that is cool cos it's a full sentence. I just mean throwing out random phrases like "teenage satellites" or "brokenhearted surgery"...
I prefer Mark's more storytelling lyrics in the DR-EOTS era than his weird metaphors tbh. Like Apple Shampoo, Lemmings, Dammit, Going away to...
The only blink shirt I ever bought was in like 2001 when i got a navy blue one that says blink on the front on different coloured letters and 182...
"I heard Tom went into a restaurant and ate everything in the restaurant and they had to close the restaurant. Is that true?"
Aggression sounds good as long as it doesn't mean more teen battle cry shouts about how "We are the broken kids of East LA" or whatever haha.
The chorus isnt bad but I’m really not feeling it. The verses sound like a bad Fall Out Boy pastiche (who I don’t like anyway) and that little...
I actually didn't see that coming at all. It made me genuinely happy!
I finished it. I liked it overall but Tobias' "family" sucked and the flashback/imagine family bits went on too long although the kid being young...
"Corporate event" makes me think of being surrounded by business men and women in suits just sitting there ignoring them while conducting big...
Tom also said he re-wrote lyrics on TOYPAJ after hearing Alkaline Trio. I doubt Mark has even listened to any AVA since WDNTW.
If they did this then their first mistake would be not calling it To The Mars.
Yeah I hope they really are trying new things and not trying to rehash old sounds. I know it's kinda done to alleviate old fan "fears" who only...
Watched the first 4 new ones. Really like them so far. GOB is amazing.
That makes sense. Still some songs seem way too rare. (I'm not in America and don't go to tours so it doesn't matter much to me anyway but still!)
Some of those numbers are insane. They've played Anthem live TWICE?! Every time I look for you ONCE?!? Yet Brohemian fucking Rhapsody gets 147...
"Monsters of California" must be what Tom calls Skiba and Feldmann.
That's the most energy Mark has put into a vocal performance since Dammit!
That song about jerking off in a tree watching a woman get changed was p tasteful let's be honest.
Mark already ripped that album off anyway. Golden Showers was all about CALIFORNIA. Suburban Kings? Kings of the Weekend. Animals? RABBIT hole....
I like Snake Charmer's lyrics cos there's so many "i" sounds it allows for maximum Tomming. Back at the starting loiiine. where Eve was awn...
Some of this rips so fucking hard it's ridiculous. Mammoth is absolutely killer. Saboteur too. The only song I'm not feeling on first listen is...
I'd love some oddly negative defeatist honesty. "Yeah we're having a fun time recording and we hope it's good but I dunno. I mean we're all in our...
Probably a lot "harder" than it turned out. The intro riff is so heavy but then I always found the rest of Up All Night is so light and lacking...
