    Those and Bullet.

    But 4/6 songs on the backhalf being filler really makes the back half drag on. Brass Ring and Window are great though

    See I loved Bullet at first, then it fell off, but seeing it live has made it stick with me. It's definitely the 8th best track on the record though haha.

    More "Hum" style songs would be extremely to their benefit if they're gonna ditch the darker tones of Charmer completely imo

    divide is another one from that album thats a bit different that would be a cool sound for them to explore further. There's one other that I cant think of right now but its a slower song as well. Escape plan is sort of in the vein but its still super straight forward. Again I do enjoy this album, it may make my top 15 this year.

    Teen Rocket? I think that's one of their best. I think this album at it's best also mines similar ground. Like Escape Plan.

    We reach for the longest shadow

    Teen Rocket is easily the best off of Charmer, maybe my favorite Tigers Jaw song ever, up there with Distress Signal.

    it's not my favorite off that album but a definite highlight. i'd probably say the title track is my favorite or hum. or distress signal. or the closer. hmmm.

    forbidden chalice.

    I gotta put this back on sometime this week. I put Charmer on during my commute and I concluded that What Would You Do is still one of my favorite closers ever. It's like a never ending spiral.

    Interestingly it's only like my 8th favourite on Charmer alone.

    I just got into this band this year. For some reason nothing ever really clicked before, but then I listened to spin. and was hooked. They may not all be standouts but it is a really enjoyable listen and perfect for this time of year. The first half is completely solid to me, with the back being a little more filler.

    So then I went back and listened to Charmer and really liked it as well. They are two different styles but both equally good.

    Im seeing them on Thursday with The Menzingers and somehow I've completely forgotten to listen to Spin. Im excited to listen on my way home form class. What songs should I expect them to play, Ive never seen them

    eat my shorts, jabronis

    This is exactly what happened to me. Idk if it is the change from three singers to two or what, but spin is what finally did it for me.

    Listened to this record today. Still think the first half is good but it kind of farts out. Lots of it sounds like Tigers Jaw on autopilot but the jams are real jams.
     
  21. window is like the best song tho

    From spin the songs you will definitely get are "Follows," "June," "Guardian," and "Window." The two tours I've seen them play on this cycle have included "Favorite," "Escape Plan," "Make It Up," and "Brass Ring."

    They were really heavy on spin and the S/T album the last two tours with some Charmer as well. I wouldn't expect much outside of those releases. S/T staples are "The Sun," "Plane vs. Tank vs. Submarine," "Chemicals." Songs from Charmer you might get are: "Hum," "Teen Rocket," "Distress Signal," "Frame You" and the rest is really up in the air.

    Cool thanks! I'm looking forward to it, I listened to the album today and I'd say those are mostly the ones I'd want to hear. And I'm always up for some S/T songs

    Made my top 10, didn’t expect it too but I felt weird leaving it off bc I listened to it so much more than a lot of things

    They covered Semi Charmed Life and I Won't Back Down at the holiday show this weekend.

    They also played Smile and Two Worlds which was really cool.

    Very cruel to play Plane Vs. Tank and not go into I Saw Water after though especially in their hometown lol I do love them closing with Window because of how hard they jam the end of it.

    People didn't seem very into the Spin songs at the show either.
