This band has evolved from "promising but mediocre" to very bad

what on earth

why does the intro of this sound like a Gorillaz song

why does it end after the second chorus when it seems like it's going somewhere

what even was that video

people say all the time that "this song sounds like two different songs on top of each other" but this literally just sounds like a bad Bruno Mars ripoff on top of a Guitar Center amp demo

this sounds like something Neil Cicierega would make for his mashup albums and reject because it was too stupid to be alongside All Star + Imagine

I always hated this band and I'm still appalled

This band is really the worst of the worst. Like straight up the worst sounding "rock" music I've ever heard. And somehow they have become even far worse than they already were.

How do you even record this with multiple people approving it

Listened to this last night on my phone and was shocked. Listening to it now with a better set up, I hear the early 80s RnB influences. It's not terrible, but damn.. They got some balls releasing that song with the fanbase they have. The song might work if its the ONLY track that sounds like that on the album. Treating it as an intermission to the album..

The programmed drums really ruin it and Tyler's vocals just sound annoying for the most part. Real odd choice for a single.

worse than electro swing

“WE EXPECTED YOU TO HATE THIS SONG SO THE JOKE IS ON YOU H8ERS” is the bands current statement. Michael Bohn was clearly the only member who mattered.

I like it. Those chorus riffs are sick. The length does make it seem more like a transitional song though.

aight so I just heard the whole album and it's legit really good, "Flexin" is, to nobody's surprise, the biggest throw-away song and a dumb-as-hell choice for a single. The rest of the album sounds like 2009-era Dance Gavin Dance in the best possible way. Skyler's bass playing might be the best thing about it.
