You know if Far-less decided to make a "Everyone Is Out To Get Us' pt.2 the album would have kicked major butt. Their debut was full of post-hardcore epics that were diverse enough and unique enough to stand on it's own and if they copied it there would be enough diversity to claim it a excellent album. But no, Far-less basically said screw it and made the polished, tight, and radio friendly indie album called A Toast To Bad Taste. This isn't progression people-this is called a switch up. Such a ridiculously switch up that it might take a few listens to get into. In the end though-it's Far-less-and that means awesome music. And despite the more friendly sound Far-less still manage to mix up the pot and and maintain diverse styles through the album. In the end, even if you didn't like this album. You gotta give major credit to Far-less for pretty much making one of the most incredible yin yang of albums (comparing EIOTGU to ATTBT) and pulling it of incredibly well. Where Far-less will take their sound next? Who knows. I'm convinced if they made an R&B record it'll be like the greatest album of it's time.
