They'd better tour because I am on the wrong side of this goddamn huge country right now and way too poor to go all the way across it.

Bringing back Brownsound and doubling down on the metal inspiration he brings to the table is so loving refreshing when we have the other old Pop Punk juggernauts dropping the Punk altogether. I actually liked 13 Voices a little better, but the new one was really good too. Just wish they hadn't added the weird effects to the vocals on the last song.

SweetMercifulCrap! posted:I have the same issue with both the new Blink album and the new Green Day album, and it's that they both sound over-produced, polished, and compressed to the point of feeling like nothing. It's all so flat that it feels lifeless and the vocals are hard to understand. I know this has been an ongoing thing for decades with music ("loudness wars") but I've noticed it increasing rather than decreasing with punk bands for whatever reason. I thought the Blink and Fall Out Boy albums were both pretty disappointing in that regard, especially for albums that were sort of billed as a "return to form" in some ways. Neither felt like much of a course correction from their recent releases. Green Day was a lot better IMO. Still think Sum 41 is going to be far and away the best out of those big four in this cycle of albums, I've really enjoyed all of their 2010s releases (13 Voices in particular) and the songs they've released so far have made me pretty optimistic.
