| Top 10 Strung Out Songs
My 10 favourite songs by one of the most underrated bands, Strung Out. Narrowing it down to just 10 was very difficult! Honorable mentions: Scarecrow, Dig, Wrong Side of the Tracks, The Misanthropic Principle, Too Close to See, Velvet Alley. | | 1 | Strung Out
Razorblade
A perfect song! A masterpiece from Jordan's insanely technical drum intro to the dying ending notes. Epic, musical, and inspired. | | 2 | Mephisto
Similar to Razorblade, but with more of an ultimatum-feel. Also one of my favourite endings to an SO album. | | 3 | Cemetery
Now this is my cup of tea! Good ol' Strung Out being new and artistic without compromising their signature sound. Love it. | | 4 | Paperwalls
A fun, poppy punk song that melts together perfectly. One of my favourite Jim-era songs. | | 5 | Pleather
A nostalgic reminisce of a childhood with a now-estranged father. Lyrics are personal and effective as always and the melodies flow so well. | | 6 | Lost Motel
One of their more popular songs despite never actually being released. Strung Out shows how moving their music can be while clinging to their punk rock sound. | | 7 | Gearbox
One of their fastest, most aggresive songs (pre-Aiken). Fueled, angry, and personal all at the same time. | | 8 | Matchbook
Another fan favourite, and probably one of the best endings to a Strung Out album. Jason's vocals make the typical punk progression work with the song. | | 9 | Letter Home
A captivating, emotional song written from the viewpoint of a soldier overseas. Along with the great music, Jason's lyrics are one of the most personal and socially aware works in the SO catalogue. | | 10 | Vampires
Choosing a 10th and final song was difficult enough! Vampires gets the lucky spot for being a musical, poppy punk rock ballad with great music and lyrics as usual. | |

07.14.08 | i'm not too into punk. i like Rancid's ...And Out Come The Wolves and several hardcore albums/bands like Minor Threat and such, but i'll look into these guys for sure | HighandDriving
07.14.08 | Is this brorape, if so, good going changing your username. | xs1n1sterx
07.14.08 | good list. i pretty much like all strung out songs but i would have found a way to squeeze ultimate devotion, calling, and savant in there. ultimate devotion is simple but awesome, calling is just plain awesome, and the lyrics to savant are amazing to everyone who's not christian. | Intransit
07.14.08 | massive phail for not having Never Speak Again or Mission Statement | spoon_of_grimbo
07.14.08 | cracking list! not what i would've picked, but i don't think they've ever written a bad song, so any strung out list is gonna be a good one.
once i get the cash together, i'm going to get some lyrics from "too close to see" tattooed on top of a stylized strung out atom logo that my mate's designed for me. | brocoy
07.16.08 | Like I said, it was nearly impossible to narrow it down to just 10. Every Strung Out song is great IMO and I have never been disappointed by them. You really can't go wrong with them. |
