Pray Tell is alright (the chorus is a bit shitty), but You Belong Here does kind of suck. Def my least favorite on the album.



Art of War is awesome.

if you like Impossible you can't not like You Belong Here, it's the same vein of poppy Anberlin

Impossible is great!



You Belong Here is not so much.



By that logic, Foreign Language is a great song, too, and I think we can all agree that it is not.

I know, but it's super poppy, upbeat Anberlin, not unlike Impossible.



But one is good, and the other is not.



Plus, You Belong Here is pretty mid tempo, is a little more bare bones, and doesn't really sound all that similar to Impossible to me.

You Belong Here is so soothing and pleasant. It's like if Coldplay wrote an Anberlin song but then they made it better.



Down is a real snoozer tho

I really like Down. I think it's one of the better acoustic jams by them, including Cable Car.



At least we can agree on Art of War, right?

What do you think of Closer and To The Wolves? They might be my favorites, but there are still some nitpicks I have with both of them.



The main problem I have with this album is it doesn't really have that one or two (or even three) just really outstanding songs that stick out above the rest. Most of the songs are really good... but nothing just makes me want to hit the repeat button after it ends.

Closer is good, To the Wolves is fucking fantastic.

The thing that bugs me about Closer is the chorus. It's pretty repetitive until he adds that little extra part a few times after the first one. Verses are fantastic, tho. Love me some delay on the ol' geetar.



My gripe with To The Wolves is that 'solo.' Why couldn't he have just let loose and played an actual one? He has such good ones on their other rockin' songs, like Godspeed, Little Tyrants, and Readyfuels.

TMF, I can get behind your ranking if you switch Pray Tell with Wolves.
