2.5 average | ebay | June 24th 11 | Taking Back Sunday's self-titled album is one that lacks identity, focus, and originality. The heralded return of John Nolan offers absolutely nothing of significance, which is sure to be a disappointment to the TBS fans who were praying for a return to the good ol days of Tell All Your Friends. There are a couple great single-worthy songs , but most of the album is completely worthless and harkens back to what made us cringe throughout New Again. In the end, it looks like the rebirth of Taking Back Sunday may end up being their short final chapter.

0.0 | Athom EMERITUS | June 22nd 11 | El Paso and You Got Me are great. The rest are turgid arena rock anthems from a band that no longer plays arenas.

3.0 good | Tdunn99 | January 21st 19 | For having not been together in nearly a decade this album is not bad. The first 3 tracks are great, and while the middle is a little lackluster, the end is pretty good. Still wished there was a little more from John here as his voice is not as prevalent as on Tell all Your Friends, though that may have been intentional as Adam is the stronger singer

3.0 good | afoolonahill | April 16th 12 | Not a terrible album, but many of the tracks struggle to push beyond mediocrity. 'El Paso' and 'You Got Me' are awesome, though, and John Nolan's backing vocals make a welcome return.

2.0 poor | raggedragamuffin | November 8th 11 | Another self-titled album letdown. Not that there is anything spectacularly bad on this album. But try listening to Tell All Your Friends and then listening to this. Hah! TBS has been on a downward trend, as New Again wasn't really that good either. But this was the album that I hoped would push them back in the right direction. And it falls flat on its face.

3.5 great | IsPerv | August 24th 11 | While entirely not on par with their first, or even their second album, their self titled release shows that they can still write solid tunes.

2.0 poor | patrickfannon | June 27th 11 | What the fuck happened to the dude who used to shriek "And will you tell all your friends, you've got your gun to my head?" Who is this asshole asking me now, "Can you imagine Christ hitting a child?" What the fuck? This feels way too much like a grab for the arenas, and all traces of emotion have been drained from this once-vital "emo" band.
