Oso Oso - Sore Thumb (March 18, 2022) Album • Page 11

Love the new song, much closer to basking than the last album

 

Totally disagree haha

 

I dig the song but it would def be outranked by at least 90% of Sore Thumb for me. also, far from a deal-breaker, but there’s something bugging me about the mix that keeps it from really *popping* imo the way the last couple releases have. so it’s def a downgrade in that regard to my ears, but I guess it’s hardly a fair fight when Mike Sapone was involved in the mixing of BITG and ST haha. also not really getting the take that it sounds more like Basking than Sore Thumb, personally. to me it has a similar melodic sensibility to something like Nothing to Do or Fly on the Wall. it’s upbeat and catchy, but there’s kind of a bittersweet/melancholic undercurrent to the chord progression/melody of it. Basking, minus like Priority Change and Charlie, feels a lot sunnier to me by comparison.

 

song is growing on me! just had a great listen of it. :) but also it took me a few listens to really realize how brilliant Sore Thumb really was and re-calibrate my expectations from just wanting BITG 2.0 (and the same was the case with BITG, I thought it was a step down from Yunahon the first few listens and eventually came around to it being better)

 

I've listened to this band for a few years, but in the last couple weeks something really really clicked for me in a different way and now they're all I really want to listen to

 

Can’t wait to see them tonight

 

Same! Maybe the weather… didn’t really think they were a fall band, but it fits.

 

I definitely see them as a fall band personally

 

They were so good last night. Played so much off of Real Stories which was shocking but awesome

 

Exciting to hear! I’m seeing them for the first time next week.

 

this project just has so many great songs at this point; can’t imagine a less-than-stellar setlist

but all that really matters is they played describe you

 

I’m an idiot I’m seeing them in 2 weeks lol

 

Will I fulfill my dream of hearing the Gatorade song live tonight? We shall see.

 

Great song

 

Nothing says love like hydray-shun

 

It’s true

 

They didn’t play this tonight :(

But I had a great time

 

This band has had a stranglehold on me for like two months now. Saw Jade open acoustic for Petey tonight and it was so great. They didn’t play One Sick Plan at the show last month so I was stoked to get it tonight. I was starting to calm down on my listening and now I’m all back in. I listen to Out of the Blue, De Facto, and gb/ol almost daily, and run through their discog at least once or twice a week

I can’t believe as recently as June or July they played a free street fest blocks from me and I didn’t feel like going… what a mistake lol

 

Anyone who’s seen them on the microwave tour, when did these guys go on?

 

Saw them on Thursday and they went on at about 8:05

 

I have never heard of that band, and just checked Spotify and they’re pretty big. No idea how I Missed that.

 

never heard of them either. any good?
