Hmmm idk bro I thought this was fun as hell. Lyrics kinda suck but the vox are amazing. This is pretty much exactly what I love in terms of emo.

Like I said, it's a diet Free Throw. Everything they do has been done better. Riffs don't feel as particularly engaging as I've seen them portrayed as. The lyrics are such a focus simply because emo tends to be defined by its poetic/personal/confessional/etc. presentation, so faults in that are usually clear to the listener and turn out to be detrimental.

I hear you. I’ve never been one to pay a lot of attention to lyrics so maybe hats why I don’t particularly care haha. I dig the riffs though honestly.

That's fair enough. The lyrics are a big part for me because the style they employ pushes them to the forefront and, as I said, lyrics are what help define emo. It's a veeery malleable genre as it is, and that's one of the few pillars of it that can help draw boundaries/distinguish it.



But hey, if you're digging it and having fun don't let me run the train off the rails, carry on.

Personally, I just see these guys as diet Tiny Moving Parts instead of diet Free Throw. Makes more sense with some of the lyrics and whatnot.



It's more a 'fun' release that I find myself not being too hard on it, something that'd be cool to shout along to at a live show. It's not a lot of substance but they're nice to jam.

i also don't blame the negs, this was just a quick writeup for a thread. i got a malibu ken review coming up tomorrow though, that's got more effort in it.

The lyrics are kinda funny tbh. Love the Room references on This Town Needs Fun

Was going through some January releases and I just realized I never jammed this. 3 tracks in and yeah it's good fun. Not my thing, but it's good.
