You would be right Jeremy c: as far as melodic post hardcore goes, TOCS is where it all started

Album Rating: 5.0

relistening to TOCS right now and damn i can't remember loving it this much, just bumped to a 4.5

TOCS is a classic, ESPECIALLY for its time

Album Rating: 4.5

tocs would be way better if spencer actually sounded like spencer instead of just trying to copy dallas (which the dude has even admitted to doing)

"TOCS aged like milk for the most part"

Big facts

Don't shake, I hate to see you

Seriously hearing Spencer's lows after TOCS blewy damn mind when I was a teen, thought it was the most brutal shit ever lol

Album Rating: 5.0

tbh even his vocals nowadays i prefer over his dallas-aping TOCS style, but even then i've been tuning that out and not letting it bother me because the damn hooks on that record are infectious

hell no

Album Rating: 5.0

the only problem i have with TOCS is one that i've been tuning out specifically in order to enjoy it more; Spencer's really high screechy screams.

Album Rating: 5.0

tocs was always awful for me as someone who listen to DTGL 1st. DTGL has everything amped up. the production is beefier, spencer's screams are low as fuck and awesome, the guitars are much more post rocky and shit



TOCS is like a local band's 1st album.



they just somehow jumped to a complete masterpiece in 1 album cycle haha.



keep in mind - didn't properly listen to UO til like 2015 and Disambig was already setting the bar for me back then. TOCS just seems like kiddie music comparatively

exaaaaactly. people love UO for a lot of reasons i guess, but i consider DTGL and on to be the real musicianship being shown you know

I think DTGL is closer to TOCS than LITSOS

Album Rating: 5.0

Nah. TOCS was great when I was 14 or whatever but it just feels really immature to me now. Only a couple songs hold up, the rest is kinda rough to get through these days.
