^ Will Putney only produced that song. Jon Bellion co-wrote "Everything We Need" I think. That's about it as far as anyone else having anything to do with this half-assed record.
Might just have to bump Common Courtesy up a notch after hearing this. That record has aged surprisingly well.

"That's about it as far as anyone else having anything to do with this half-assed record"
in addition to Brittain and Putney, WZRD BLD (Drew Fulk), Mike Green, and Dan Book are all credited as producers or co-producers on different songs.
Matthew Avero, Matthew West, Jonathan Russel, Nathan Willett, Cody Quistad (from Wage War), Zack Capper, and Nick Long are also credited co-songwriters.
they also had like 4 other people mix or engineer it. Josh Wilbur, Tom Lord-Alge, Neal Avron, and Dan Lancaster all contributed to the final product.

Holy shit I stand corrected then. Curious to know who actually green-lit "High Diving" because I swear that song gets even worse overtime. Might actually start to have fever-dreams about that chorus.

Colin Brittain is becoming one of those names that whenever you see them attached to an upcoming record by a rock/metal band, it's time to panic

"High Diving specifically was written by Jeremy, Colin Brittain, Matthew Avero, Matthew West, Jonathan Russel, and Nathan Willett."
You got a source for that? Would love to dive into the writing credits for this. Andrew Wade and Chad Gilbert of New Found Glory have been notching writing credits since WSMFY but this is way different. Took six guys to write the song and five of them aren't even in the band.

“We did this one with Will Putney, and while I was recording these vocals I was just chuckling to myself as I’m doing it [because it’s so heavy]. And he would look over at me like, ‘What’s so funny?!’ And I would just look at him and go, ‘This is coming out on Fueled By Ramen!’"
this bit is really telling lmao
"You got a source for that?"
says so in the CD booklet

As an aspiring songwriter I shed a tear at the beautiful poetry of "It's hard to practice what you preach / When life is a beach"

“This (Viva La Mexico) is a real-life account of Neil [Westfall, guitar]’s bachelor party in Mexico. There was a big group of guys, and we flew down to Mexico for four days and did the whole bachelor party thing there. And it was just the most wild experience ever! So everything that I talk about in the song actually happened to somebody, but I told it from the perspective of one person. And, as a group, the entire story happened to us, but I told the story from the lens of one human just having a crazy night. It’s supposed to be like these guys go there, do these very dumb things but then we slowly fall in love with this place that’s made us feel so welcomed, and the people are so kind to us. We go from just being there and not really understanding, and then by the end it’s like, ‘This is a place that we’ll never forget.’”
