Yeah

 

YAAAASSSSSS

 

WUT.

Which two songs?

 

lol I heard it about 3-4 years after it came out, and it just didn't resonate with me the way that Warpaint did. So maybe it could've been something like that, where people have a more personal connection to an album, but you had to be there in that time (09?) Idk. It's not a bad album, just my least favorite and the one spun the least

@Craig Manning my three favorites would be Where I Want to Be, Weathered, and The Permanent Rain

 

Ha, well like I said a few posts back, I'm sure I wouldn't love it the way I do if it had come along at literally any other time in my life. But I'm surprised you like War Paint and don't really care for Reach for the Sun. I find those albums to be pretty similar in terms of sound, themes, and overall appeal.

 

Also, here's that re-press!

Reach For The Sun Black With Yellow/Orange Splatter : HLR0 : Hopeless Records

 

:D

 

Also a white/light blue variant. Will jump on one of these immediately

 

i have to be honest, any opinion other than the first and last song being the best on RFTS i can't imagine. never feel alone stands miles above the rest of the album

 

This record was (still is) so important to me. I'm so happy I finally get to have it on vinyl

 

Settle Down and Northern Lights are up there too but yeah, the bookends are highlights for sure.

 

i hope the audio quality is better on this repress than the one i currently have. it's so noticeably quiet.
i just gotta question which one i wanna get (and also i gotta pick up that repress of Yellowcard's WYTTSY)

 

Surfaced

 

Settle Down is the best off RFTS. And Work In Progress is the best off War Paint.

 

11-way tie

 

Doubt it, aren't pressings from Hopeless Records usually trash? (Still salty about The Greatest Generation)

 

unpopular opinion: I've never really liked work in progress. TDS' strength is in their ability to do bittersweet, not straight bitter. but i get that a lot of people love that

 

Yeah, I've grown to like it over the last 5 years, but for a while it was my least favorite song on warpaint. It runs a bit too long as well.

 

This this this.

Busy agaaaaain

 

Picked up that RFTS pressing, hope that WP gets a new one too I can sell my plain black pressing. God I love this band.

 

anyone get in the RFTS repress already? my order didn't include tracking information T_T

 

I don't think any of them have shipped yet. I haven't gotten any communication about it though.

 

the email/order page said "due to ship around 11/25" psshhhhh

 

although it DOES also say "subject to change"

 

i think i can safely say War Paint is my favorite. not just my favorite TDS record, but one of (if not my absolute) favorite albums of all time.
I Should Leave Right Now is just overwhelmingly meaningful and sentimental to me; it holds so much value to my life now and still brings back feelings from 5 years ago when i first heard it. my problems and situations have changed but that song still makes me so emotional.

probably my ONE flaw with the record; i like/love Work In Progress, but i truly think it's sequenced wrong. i don't think it should be the second track on this album.
