Took me a while to rate this. Best EP/split of the year. TWIABP's half of the album is the best music released in 2011.

Chloroform is almost SOTY material. Almost. The Whirr side is pretty solid too. Lean is definitely the
stronger track, though.

Angels and Airwaves Love - Part II
First 2 songs are good. Then the album quickly turns into shit. Tom, you're trying way too hard. Your odd choice of seemingly meaningless metaphors don't work, and you aren't U2. I love We Don't Need To Whisper, and due to the huge nostalgia factor that goes with music, I'm sure it'll always be my favorite record. RIP AVA, and Tom, this is a band, not a corporation. 3 more movies? I love the ambition...but no.

For a joke album from a band that wasn't even taking themselves serious at the time it was recorded, it's really good.
The Wonder Years Suburbia I've Given You All and Now I'm Nothing
I'm hesitant to give this a 5 already after only 2 days of listening, but as far as pop-punk goes, I have a feeling in 10 years this will mean what Dude Ranch means to me now.

Kinda bummed on this. Childhood was perfect, twinkle at it's best. This is just meh. It's good, but not great. They said they left the twinkle scene and sound cause they hate the people involved in it. Don't think other people should determine what kind of music you make, but whatever. Still can't wait for an LP from them.
