YC added to Is For Lovers at Lake Tahoe, replacing TBS

 

Haha. Nah. Just defending my favorite child.

 

Would you rank your children for us? It’s kind of our favorite thing to do here.

Kidding aside, all in on whatever new tunes sound like/grateful it’s even a possibility in 2023!

 

Lift a Sail

Lift a Sail is the best Yellowcard album hands down.

 

Wow. He did the chorus thing…

One of us! One of us!

 

This hurt me in ways I cannot possibly articulate

 

Lift a Sail rules. My Mountain is one of my fav YC songs

Welp. Here we go.

Any list with Southern Air lower than say...3 is invalid. Sorry.

Starting a Paper Walls playthrough to wrap up the work week. The Takedown still rips through the space-time continuum.

They’re all good

 

"Your opinion on these albums that you yourself made is invalid."

 

Ranking these records is damn near impossible for me, I love them all and go through certain periods of time where I favor some over others. I think i’m settling in on Paper Walls, Lights & Sounds and Lift a Sail as my top 3 though.

 

I love that you post in here, super active in this community and the Star Wars one, both of which I’m a big fan of.

I’m fairly on board with this ranking, I’d maybe swap ST and OA and then the top 3 could change depending on the day. L&S, SA and WTTSY have some of my favourite songs though but not as frequent in full play throughs as the top three.

I saw you guys in Glasgow on the LAS tour (with Less than Jake) and the final tour. Loved hearing Crash The Gates, Make Me So, Transmission Home, California and Lift a Sail live.

(I know you guys are playing Slam Dunk.. but not being a fan of festivals, I’d pay good money for a UK tour.. or just a Scottish date. I’m easy)

Used to rank Ocean Avenue lower, but at some point realized it's by far the one I revisit the most.

 

Self titled above L&S is interesting! Although that may be because I think I got into Yellowcard on that album. The UK or at least my remote part of the UK was slow on the uptake!

 

L&S has grown on me in the past few years, but it's always been my least favorite of the post-OA run. Self-titled has 4-5 songs that I think are just about perfect, even if I like it as a full album a little less than most of the others.

I’m an idiot, I had mixed up OFTK and Self Titled in my head

 

What are your feelings on Lights and Sounds these days? I see it's ranked towards the very bottom of your list. I feel like at least some people have come around to it now, but it's always legitimately ranked in the top 3 for me. I still listen to it routinely, it has some of my favorite songs on it. But I also completely understand why some people don't enjoy it as much as the rest of their work.

I always compare it to The Maine's "Lovely Little Lonely" (which is one of my favorites ever) in the sense that it's an album I can get completely lost in, almost like a story from start to finish.

 

Okay I think mine would be
