I mean, if we are saying this album wouldn't exist without OTIP, OTIP wouldn't exist with The Gaslight Anthem.





Always thought it was interesting that The Menzingers found their "sound" approximately two years after The '59 Sound. A Lesson in the Abuse of Info doesn't sound anything like the rest of their discog post A Lesson. The Menzingers were birthed by The Gaslight Anthem imo

this is my most scrobbled album of all time on last fm and given how many times I've already listened to Kick and the new version of Losers they'll probably end up my most scrobbled band period

Nothing proven but several members of other bands accused him of creepy and inappropriate behavior. The thermals Twitter account also had a bunch of tweets with pedophile jokes. When they were brought up, hutch started blocking everyone and made the account private.

ahhhhh. didn't catch the convo about the thermals, I thought hutch was somehow related to spanish love songs.



Interesting regardless, will check body blood (despite Hutch apparently being creepy)

Dude doesnt sound anything like Greg and his lyrics are way more blunt, gonna disagree strongly [2]



Sometimes he sounds a little similar but theyre quite different. Also saying this wouldnt exist without OTIP is ridiculous. These guys are just another sadboi emo pop punk band, there are plenty of other bands from which they could have taken influence from. Where are the OTIP-esque arppegio'd riffs and the americana-isms? And i dont remember there being keys on OTIP. Theyre not that similar.

I’m surprised these guys aren’t compared to Captain, We’re Sinking more considering they have a similar cracking voice/sadboi thing going on



What do u think of the track Kick, Adolf? Probs the best thing they’ve done and I’m hoping they’ll finally win you over

aight so I'd like to redact some of my previous unwavering claims, listened again and I think I must've been a little confused. There's definitely a Menz influence here but not to the level that I expressed, rather there are a handful of other heavy influences. And singy boi doesn't actually sound as identical to Greg as I thought. I still can't really call them original in any way, but yeah I was a bit off base it seems

Their first album Giant Sings The Blues sounds a lot more like the Menzingers than this album.
