Saviors Discussion

[terse orchid]

I thought his voice sounded younger than normal on the live stream last night

[keen pewter]

this line in particular reads to me like it’s about Joey

[subtle ravine]

He looked younger than normal too LMAO

[static flint]

i don’t think that’s about joey lmao

[keen pewter]

it’s def a reach but it’s my personal theory

[static flint]

that’s fair

[terse orchid]

Yeah he should do short sleeves more often I know exactly what you’re referring to

[static flint]

[keen pewter]

like it’s scary that he still loves his son despite the fucked up shit he did and how angry he is

[subtle ravine]

Fr dude his tattoos look sick why doesn't he show them more

[static flint]

nah i can see how much effort they put in

like

the orchestra is beautiful

[keen pewter]

it’s one of the weakest tracks for me but I still love it

[static flint]

but it’s just boring to me

idk

[keen pewter]

Saviors and Corvette Summer are my least favs

[ornate zenith]

I thought this too actually

[static flint]

i still don’t like suzie chapstick

i think it’s ass

[terse orchid]

OEB is my least favorite because I think he’s leaned into “sassy” Billie more than enough in recent years… if that makes sense.

[keen pewter]

glad I’m not the only one

[ornate zenith]

And it makes sense for a song about fatherhood and sometimes feeling like it’s a struggle

Son sucks but I still have to love him because I can’t not, scary

[keen pewter]

great way to put it

[ornate zenith]

Lyrically a great song IMO

[keen pewter]

probably the strongest song on the album lyrically

or at least up there

nvm it’s not the strongest but it is lyrically very strong

so does Coma City

[ornate zenith]

I expect a father to still love his shitty son, but ideally still love them by expecting better from them

[static flint]

how are yall not mentioning dilemma

[keen pewter]

cmon jar

[ornate zenith]

Still my favorite lyrically

[keen pewter]

okay well the parts where there’s actually words

John did you see the modmail message

[terse orchid]

Strange Days has the best lyrics imo

[ornate zenith]

Holy shit not until now

That’s gotta be a prank

[keen pewter]

bro it HAS to be

[ornate zenith]

Either intentionally or unintentionally hilarious

[keen pewter]

it already made its way to the starboard

[ornate zenith]

But also whoever the prankster is doesn’t know how nuclear family works

[keen pewter]

and Cygnus made it a copypasta

[keen pewter]

that part made me lol too

[ornate zenith]

Laughing my ass off in the pharmacy rn

[keen pewter]

genuinely stared at it for five minutes trying to figure out what the fuck I read

[knotty crow]

laughing my ass off at this in walmart rn

people in the skincare section looking at me funny

[static flint]

help

i’ve had fever stuck in my head all day and i can’t even put the song on to help

[subtle ravine]

SAME LMAO

I NEED TO HEAR IT

[subtle ravine]

I've been having that snippet on loop bro

[static flint]

i understand what people mean when they say it sounds like a high school film song

but

it slaps

[subtle ravine]

Bro my mom asked me to play this album in full again she really loved it lmao

[hearty solar]

WHAT

WHAT WEBSITE

[static flint]

uhh

web-cache.chocomaru.com

[hearty solar]

thats not a FUCKING website

it kinda sounds like a trilogy song

[static flint]

idk then

sorry

jar sent me it cuz i loved the leak lmao

[rancid arch]

Not a real link apparently.

[acoustic canopy]

[hearty solar]

[hearty solar]

thjank uuu

[acoustic canopy]

yeah

[hearty solar]

heres the .mp3!

[static flint]

it’s so cutesy

i love it

[rancid arch]

Father to a Son sounds like Save Me by Queen.

[violet needle]

Damn juvenile delinquents would’ve fit better from the snippets

[ornate zenith]

@hearty solar you can’t send file downloads of songs here

[hearty solar]

shit sorry

It wasn't the full thing, 50 seconds of it, but its understandable.

[static flint]

in all fairness

it is technically out

[ornate zenith]

That part doesn’t matter

[static flint]

we just haven’t got it here yet

[ornate zenith]

You can’t send file downloads for copyrighted content period

[static flint]

alr

[hearty solar]

Farter of all shits

[hearty solar]

thats awesome

I woke up to a message of stink
Choking up on the shit from above

[keen pewter]

BILLIE NO

[subtle ravine]

Billie said the n word again guys

[ornate zenith]

I turn that shit up

[knotty crow]

got suzie chapstick and father to a son stuck in my head at walmart

like i’m gonna cry in the middle of a store

[hearty solar]

me when I get no bastard cake

[knotty crow]

i made bastard cake last night

i also made an offer that you can’t deny

[hearty solar]

one pied bastard

[knotty crow]

that’s just pie in the sky

[ornate zenith]

What is this from

[hearty solar]

real life

[ornate zenith]

Fuck

He's gonna kill me?

[hearty solar]

yeeeeep

[ornate zenith]

Can he hurry up

[obsidian harbor]

Not again Billie…

[subtle ravine]

Right in the bloody, bloody heart?

[obsidian harbor]

I need someone to layer Sweet Child of Mine over the intro to Saviors

They’re very similar melodically and I just wanna hear it at this point

[ornate zenith]

It’s been so awesome seeing so many people here and on the subreddit be so happy with the album. Seriously feels like Green Day Christmas and it hasn’t been like that since 2016 so it’s really cool. Not just for people to like the album but it’s awesome that it’s almost universally loved already and we’re all having a good time today with it

[subtle ravine]

RIGHT?

It makes me so happy too

With Father of All it was all so fucking depressing when it dropped because it was so poorly received by everyone

And that was my first Green Day album rollout so it all felt just extra disappointing to me

But this time it's so different and nice

[strong valve]

I would say even before 2016. I feel like some people were really divided on RevRad. Pretty much all universal acclaim on Saviors. There’s something here for everybody.

RevRad was a special album for me. It released right when I started my freshman year of college. It will always have a special place in my heart.

[ornate zenith]

This is true

I have seen very few Saviors haters. Actually I haven’t seen any saviors haters just some saviors meh-ers

[keen pewter]

same except freshman year of high school. very special place in my heart for that album

[wooden matrix]

Same im so happy to see all the positive reception

completely deserved by gd

so refreshing

[subtle ravine]

Bro I was showing Saviors to a friend who hasn't heard a Green Day album in a while and they liked it but they skipped Fancy Sauce 5 seconds in BRO😭

[wooden matrix]

nah they didn’t even give it a chance

[subtle ravine]

THEY DIDN'T

They also skipped Father to a Son bro

[obsidian harbor]

I mean fancy sauce does start slow

[ornate zenith]

Babby

Also freshman year of college for me

[wooden matrix]

😭

I got my cousin to listen to the album during his plane ride, hopefully he likes it

[violet needle]

Same

[keen pewter]

hey man 😞

babby sox

[ornate zenith]

Babby

[subtle ravine]

Is Fever still a no show?

[knotty crow]

yeah he cancelled on drinks again

[subtle ravine]

I can't fucking believe I'm looking forward to Fever dude

[wooden matrix]

I am too

[subtle ravine]

That snippet just sounds so groovy and catchy

[fleet stone]

Honestly Strange Days remembered me of Letterbomb with Dookie's album strumming patterns

I feel like it would be my top fav if the solo was a bit longer, I feel it was like forced to end, idk

I get that weird feeling after it

My top favorite ones are Dilemma or Saviors

[keen pewter]

the snippet sounds like dog shit

[hearty solar]

No it doesn’t

[keen pewter]

it do

[hearty solar]

It sounds really good

n stuff

[keen pewter]

it sounds like Here Comes The Shock levels of bad

[hearty solar]

How much did you hear of it? The new 40 something second one or the 10 second?

[subtle ravine]

Not even close what

[keen pewter]

the new 40 second one

[hearty solar]

wtf

It sounds good

[subtle ravine]

That one sounds so cool bro

Like not amazing but good

[keen pewter]

copium

[subtle ravine]

Nah I fr can't get it off my head lol

[keen pewter]

you just got a crazy good album from Green Day and yall are looking forward to a throwaway foam song

[subtle ravine]

That's also part of it probably LMAO

I guess I just really like the FOAM vibes. I mean my favorite song on Saviors is Corvette Summer

[hearty solar]

Fever sounds so catchy, it’s stuck in my head

[hearty solar]

Yeah I do too

[ornate zenith]

These kids are so dopamine deficient they always need something new coming out

[keen pewter]

youths these days

[subtle ravine]

Like bro I'm starving for a new Foxboro album

[hearty solar]

wtf I just want to hear the full thing because it’s so catchy

[subtle ravine]

I fucking love garage rock

And my favorite band doing it is sick

[ornate zenith]

Listen to Dos

[knotty crow]

and stop drop and roll

[subtle ravine]

I listen to those a lot lol

Makeout Party my believed

BELOVED*

[knotty crow]

makeout party my beleaguered

[subtle ravine]

I love FOAM but Teenage Teenager is unforgivable

That song just sucks

[ornate zenith]

I swear to god I'm the only person whose favorite foam song is I was a teenage teenager

[subtle ravine]

That's crazy lol

[hearty solar]

I also really like it

[subtle ravine]

I always hated it

[hearty solar]

I don’t understand the hate

Meet Me on the Roof is terrible though

[fleet stone]

I kinda like it too

[ornate zenith]

I like foam more than most

[subtle ravine]

That's my favorite one LMAOOOOOOO

[ornate zenith]

And by more than most I mean it's not my least favorite

[fleet stone]

Like, not my fav from that one, but I don't hate it

[subtle ravine]

Meet Me on the Roof is my most listened to song on Spotify

[ornate zenith]

Now that's wild

[hearty solar]

[subtle ravine]

And second to that is fucking Holy Toledo

[hearty solar]

jaw dropping

[ornate zenith]

Did you just start using spotify last year

[subtle ravine]

Nah

I just like

Played Holy Toledo like two days straight when it dropped

I fucking loved that damn song

[ornate zenith]

Also i'd like the haters to know that my lesbian sister's favorite song after Bobby Sox is Corvette Summer

Haters

[subtle ravine]

CORVETTE SUMMER POG

[hearty solar]

Corvette Summer is really good

[ornate zenith]

There's some haters in here

[subtle ravine]

I should make a Green Day Garage Rock playlist idk why I haven't done that yet

[hearty solar]

Also, Pollyanna with Saviors mixing would be great.

[subtle ravine]

It would've been goated

[worn gull]

She's so real for that

[ornate zenith]

Almost anything with Saviors mix would be great

[worn gull]

Corvette Summer is fun

[subtle ravine]

CLA and Cavallo did such a great job with Saviors

I would love to see another GD album produced by Butch Vig tho

[ornate zenith]

Same

Saviors mix feels a lot like 21CB at times

The guitar at least

[quiet warren]

I LOVE corvette summer

It’s #3 for me

[ornate zenith]

Same

[wooden matrix]

my sister loves bobby sox

[subtle ravine]

The cowbell is so good

[ornate zenith]

I concur with the Corvette Summer cowbell being the best auxiliary percussion in a rock song since Short Skirt Long Jacket

Can't get enough

[wooden matrix]

it adds a lot to the song

[quiet warren]

Graffitia is easily the best song on FOAM

You’re high John

[ornate zenith]

Okay Graffitia is the best

I just love teenage teenager

It's crazy I usually air guitar with songs, but then with corvette summer I air cowbell

Except for that last lick of the solo that rules

[worn gull]

There's a cowbell in that song?

Wtf

[ornate zenith]

During the chorus

Listen for it

[worn gull]

I've had to sit through Short Skirt Long Jacket so many times and I've never noticed that

[ornate zenith]

Oh

No there's a vibraslap

I meant auxiliary percussion in general

Corvette Summer has epic cowbell, Short Skirt Long Jacket has epic vibraslap

[knotty crow]

cake mentioned

as a self proclaimed cake superfan short skirt long jacket is decidedly mid

[ornate zenith]

Ope

[knotty crow]

i've always thought the title track from that album was the better song

comfort eagle

but not as much cool vibraslap in that song

[worn gull]

I like Going The Distance

[knotty crow]

eh that one's ok

[worn gull]

And the cover of Mahna Manha

[ornate zenith]

I prefer love you madly from comfort eagle

[worn gull]

Those are the only songs ik

[ornate zenith]

Title track is great though

[knotty crow]

no phone is also a good cake song

and sick of you from their "newest" album

which was 12? years ago

[ornate zenith]

2011

Jesus

[knotty crow]

it's been a long time

[ornate zenith]

They're touring now

Make some new music jesus

[knotty crow]

they had a single in i think 2016

sinking ship

that's a good song too

[ornate zenith]

Their most recent album is from two years after 21CB

[knotty crow]

and another song that the lead singer posted on twitter in 2021

[ornate zenith]

Ridiculous

[knotty crow]

to be blunt it kinda sucked

sounded like a demo

but yeah john mccrea is like 60 so i don't think new music is gonna happen

i wish they'd tour here though

[wooden matrix]

Get around, I can get around

[knotty crow]

corvette summer absolutely could be a late-era cake song though

like it would work

[ornate zenith]

Video is too long, can you give me a timestamp

[knotty crow]

youtube equivalent of "yeah i aint reading all that, im happy for u tho or sorry that happened"

[bold relic]

finally got to listen to the whole album and my ranking is
1.Living in the 20's
2.Dilemma
3.Fancy Sauce
4.Goodnight Adeline
5.Strange Days are Here to Stay
6.One Eyed Bastard
7.Bobby Sox
8.1981
9.Coma City
10.Father to a Son
11.Corvette Summer
12.Look Ma, No Brains
13.Saviors
14.Suzie Chapstick
15.The American Dream Is Killing Me

[rocky ivy]

Definitely gonna let my thoughts on the whole album simmer for a bit, but my Top 3 as of now is Look Ma, 1981, and Suzie Chapstick

[subtle ravine]

Holy SHIT they're not even trying to hide that they're lying LMAO

[fierce trout]

LMAOO

yeah man youd assume SOMEONE stole it

[wooden matrix]

awesome

[ornate zenith]

[fierce trout]

[eager swan]

Look ma is the GOAT

Followed by Suzie and Sauce

[strong valve]

The urge to send a shitpost meme rn

Man. I want to sleep so I can get to the station early in the morning to catch my train home but I just keep thinking about what a ride we’ve had for the past 4 months with this band.

[knotty crow]

hearing tadikm for the first time

the hype was real

promotion for saviors was excellent

[strong valve]

I got to see them play it at the Fremont show. I think what’s wild for me at least is it all came full circle for me. I was at the Fremont show and the Rough Trade Records show

Beginning of the era and the album release. Just very humbling.

[sacred bone]

#band-news message Between being a single, the music video and this bobby sox seems like a candinate for the setlist. It does fill a similar space to coming clean though.

[eager swan]

Best promotion they've done for an album I think ??? I was a kid during AI and 21stcbd era so I wouldn't know.
Maybe the anniversaries also had something to do with this huge promotion.

[sacred bone]

did you forget this peak promotion?

[eager swan]

Damn how could I forget that

[idle thicket]

Worst song so far is Bobby Sox at a 6/10

[tired shale]

This album is a pristine mixed bag, it's good despite the different flavors this is getting mostly positive reception

[glacial topaz]

Call her green day cuz im her Savior

[strong valve]

What does that even mean

[strong valve]

New word salad just dropped

[glacial topaz]

Bro don't know

[strong valve]

Know what

[glacial topaz]

https://tenor.com/view/kemer-batman-gif-12613109

[strong valve]

wtf

Explain

Please elaborate

[fierce trout]

And weren’t you ALSO at the Irving plaza show😭

[glacial topaz]

How old r u man

Oh shit ur an og

[half verge]

rn my favorite songs are 1981, saviors, goodnight adeline

basic songs but damn they're good

[violet jay]

My top 3 is
Goodnight Adeline
Corvette Summer
Strange Time Are Here To Stay

[eager swan]

My least favourites
Comacity
Goodnight Adeline
Corvette Summer
Strange days are here to say.
Saviors

They remind me of the Triology too much, not that I hate the triology. They're good songs to listen to once in a while. Not much interesting but it's still playable.

[wintry blade]

WHY GOODNIGHT ADELINE

[deft violet]

Random opinion, Saviors should have been a three part song with Strange Days are Here to Stay - Living in the '20s - Saviors all worked into one epic song

Maybe you could throw Coma City in there

Strange Days are Here to Stay into Coma City which explodes into Living in the '20s and then Saviors as the epic-y ending.

[eager swan]

I like the idea. Could've been cool and more enjoyable

[half verge]

Someone needs to mix that rn

[tired shale]

After having repeatedly listened to and collected my thoughts on Saviors, I have somewhat of an amateur "review"

What an incredible return to form, it's not the absolute greatest of Green Day's work by a longshot but it's certainly got it's charms. Let's not kid ourselves, we knew the combination of Green Day, Rob Cavallo and CLA was gonna produce some heat and it did. This is an amalgamation of everything Green Day has experimented with since the trilogy rolled into one and it makes the absolute best it can with those sounds. This album (while being produced by Rob Cavallo) doesn't really put me in mind of vintage Green Day and it's not really supposed to, this is clearly it's own thing. You can tell so much love was poured into these tracks, these guys sounded like they had a blast recording this and hey it paid off, it's a great set of cuts. Everything from the suzie Chapstick to Living In The 20s had me hooked in from the freaking start, loved this

8/10

[strong valve]

Yeah 😂

[strong valve]

26

[strong valve]

Yeah I’ve been here basically since the server opened? I think?

[violet jay]

My 3 least favorites
Look Ma No Brains
Saviors
Bobby Sox

[strong valve]

Saviors (the song) has really grown on me. It was one of my least favorites at first but I’m really digging it

[half verge]

😭

lmnb and saviors???

my 3 least favorites (not in order)
Bobby Sox
Father to a Son
Fancy Sauce

All 3 of these are still bangers tho this is a very consistent album

[violet jay]

I can see people not liking Father To A Son but for me I feel like there is a really strong connection in the lyrics

[half verge]

oh no yeah i would probably like it a lot more if i could actually uhhh read the lyrics

spotify doesnt have most of the saviors lyrics yet lmao

its probably on genius or something but 🤷

[knotty crow]

man i’m loving strange days are here to stay

someone said it sounds like stay the night and letterbomb had a child

and it’s true

but i think it’s a really cool song

[half verge]

the verse sounds like that one panic at the disco song

cant remember which

[wooden matrix]

I love the “TIIIIIIIIMES” before the chorus

the song always gets stuck in my head

[subtle ravine]

No One Knows is definitely one of those😔

[static flint]

that sums up the trilogy tbh

there’s what

like 50 songs?

[eager swan]

My top 3 .
LMNB
Fancy sauce
Suzie

I think even Billie said Look Ma is his favourite too

[tiny plover]

It felt like the verse was going for too long

But I gotta listen to it in full

[static flint]

https://youtube.com/shorts/GN2bZu7ds9M?si=x2ccMN_dwJ4KfC5V

someone merged the snippets

[violet jay]

Unused song ???

[obsidian harbor]

No it’s an outtake from FOAM

That was released as a bonus song on the Japanese release of Saviors

[glacial topaz]

This goes so hard

[opaque brook]

On the back of Japanese CD, it credits Butch Walker for producing the song. So it’s either left over from FOAM or they recorded it with Butch after FOAM was released, but before Rob Cavallo came on to do Saviors.

[ornate zenith]

At this point it’s got the same production team I’m pretty sure and everything for the mastering or whatever, it’s a Saviors b-side

Oh

If it’s butch walker then that’s different

Could also be an outtake from the songs between foam and saviors

[subtle ravine]

We do know that originally Butch Walker was producing the "next Green Day album"

[glacial topaz]

Faver? I hardly know her

[static flint]

it can’t be an outtake if it leaked before the album and is on saviors😭

[hearty solar]

I did

People keep reuploading mine though 👹👹👹

[static flint]

no

it’s on saviors in japan

[hearty solar]

It’s an outtake from FOAM, but a Saviors b-side.

[hearty solar]

Yes, a bonus track.

[static flint]

apparently it’s on all asian releases which is weird

[hearty solar]

https://youtu.be/rNbEu-GmQHM?si=j_X_3koPr5D6MZtr

[static flint]

i thought favorite son was 21cb?

[hearty solar]

It was a b-side for the 21 guns single

well it’s on both

[static flint]

yeah

governator, too much too soon and shoplifter were the deluxe i thought

ah okay no worries

i was tripping bc i couldn’t remember it on there

[wooden matrix]

i love shoplifter

[static flint]

obviously take this with a grain of salt but this is interesting

cuz that’s when it’s out in japan

so

maybe we get it on streaming then?

yeah

that could be right

[strong valve]

I wouldn’t hold your breath on it

[static flint]

either way we’ll get it

[strong valve]

For sure

[static flint]

but it’ll be interesting to see if greenday release it

[strong valve]

Favorite Son was only released in Japan and on the rock against bush comp

[hearty solar]

Fever in a 2024 party songs comp

leaked

[static flint]

send a link?

[strong valve]

Me when I lie on the internet

[hearty solar]

I’m fucking with you

[static flint]

not you

i’ve never seen that rock against bush thing

[strong valve]

https://youtu.be/w09kT1n0J18?si=vZrlgScT7FukmtDX

Oh.

One sec

[hearty solar]

It has an additional outro to it too on that version.

[static flint]

[hearty solar]

Being fr

[hearty solar]

https://youtu.be/wBb-u3gyRic?si=tTXfXS_dwu51iiPF

This version

[static flint]

LMAOO THAT COVER IS AMAZING

favourite son does slap tho

[strong valve]

I’ve got that cd actually

[knotty crow]

coma city sort of reminds me of the static age

the static age’s verses, that is

[obsidian harbor]

It sounds like static age and panic song

[plush warren]

God I am in love with this album

Every song is fucking incredible

Definitely worth all this wait

[wintry blade]

Yes

[obsidian harbor]

I think it’s one of the best on the album

[fervent heath]

1981 reminds me of monkey wrench + church on sunday + a little bit of back in the usa and revolution radio

[warped sluice]

The JP CD is on discogs

SO WHY FEVER OUT 😭
https://www.discogs.com/release/29536090-Green-Day-Saviors

[knotty crow]

listened to saviors again to give it a more unbiased review and the album in general didn't hit like it did the first couple times

really taking everything in more than previous listens i think the album is just simply "good"

it's not outstanding

living in the 20s, father to a son, fancy sauce, goodnight adeline, suzie chapstick are still great songs but wasn't really feeling everything else

as much as the other times i've listened to the album

[celest hawk]

Hard disagree, it’s perfect. But we can agree to disagree

[knotty crow]

i don't regret being hyped for the album or anything in hindsight

but

idk it could have been better

now that the "new album" novelty has worn off

i think given the choice between saviors and something like revrad i'm gonna pick revrad every time

[knotty crow]

this being in a relative sense as i've already listened to the album like 7 or 8 times

[tired shale]

Wish the tones weren't so middle of the road, that's the one thing holding this album back

Yeah, songs like 1981 and 20s could have used more distorted, louder guitars

It's not bad, the tones still work but that's my preference

[subtle ravine]

I disagree with this part

Louder guitars would've been bad imo

RevRad suffers from that

[tired shale]

Not louder in the mix, I meant just more abrasive

[knotty crow]

listening to revrad right now and yeah it's true

revrad sounds like loudness war all over again

[tired shale]

Ew

[knotty crow]

it's a wall of sound

[tired shale]

Rev Rad would have been so much better with Rob

They better just keep making albums with Rob and CLA for a few years lol

[subtle ravine]

I personally think Saviors is really really solid

Its not on my top 5 but it's really good

[half verge]

yeah i wouldnt say its revolutionary or anything

its just a really good album

[subtle ravine]

It's what we should've had instead of FOAM

[eager swan]

Im dumb about these things but is the album ratings for the charts out yet? I wana know how it's performing

[brisk pumice]

Why does it matter, for a band that has such a huge discography where every album has a unique sound, how their work ranks in the end? Like, all albums are solid in their own ways— you can still appreciate Saviors without arguing that it’s in the “top 5”

[plush warren]

The chart won’t come out until this Friday

[deft violet]

Agree, I have my own 'top 5' of favorites but it's purely subjective. I don't think or care about some agreed upon ranking or general concensus.

[tired shale]

Saviors has some unforgettable melodies

[knotty crow]

@worn gull

[worn gull]

1981 is a banger but it is also to repetitive

I kinda agree with saviors, but i think the lowest ill give it would be a 3

[half verge]

why do people not like saviors

the song

[worn gull]

For me its to simple, and i don't like the chorus, as i mentioned is one of the many songs that are to repetitive

Green day has not failed me, but the singles gave me hope that this would be the album that would beat revolution radio, i guess i was wrong

[half verge]

this album is probably tied with revolution radio for my no. 2/3 album

honestly i still dont know whether i like dookie enough for a no. 2 spot

yes sacrilegious green day server i know

[knotty crow]

dookie is like my number 6

so it doesn't matter

[half verge]

damn

bold take

Saviors is somewhere around below RR - above kerplunk

Well saviors is more interesting than Insomniac tho

Ugh it's hard to rank, because recency bias and their albums are different and good for different reasons

But it's not better than Nimrod

[sacred bone]

Dookie under foamf is insane

[terse orchid]

STRANGE DAYS ARE HERE TO STAY HAS BEEN PLAYING IN MY HEAD FOR 2 DAYS STRAIGHT. It’s starting to legitimately bother me, it’s getting distracting. Fucking Green Day.

[violet jay]

that is a old ranking not the one I have now

[wooden matrix]

yea strange days has been in my head all morning

my dad listened to it and he fucks with it

[devout brook]

https://youtu.be/q1wAJYXBDQo?si=en33AG-BzS-6fLFw

How we feeling bout dis one

[fierce trout]

Foam

[subtle ravine]

Yeah it's fucking mid as hell

[wooden matrix]

prob one of the weaker ones on the album imo

kind of fun though

[fierce trout]

There’s a reason it was just a bonus track

[subtle ravine]

I wouldn't call it bad but it's close lol

The first verse is good but it falls off after that

And it falls off pretty hard

[wooden matrix]

it’s stuck in my head for some reason but yeah

[subtle ravine]

That first verse is really catchy

But that's it

[plush warren]

So glad this is a bonus track, this honestly is so boring 💀

I like the riff but that’s it

[terse orchid]

Yeah I do not really like it. Also the verse kind of gives me country vibes for some reason

[plush warren]

The chorus sucks 😭

[subtle ravine]

Yeah this song is honestly pretty bad lol

[violet needle]

Tbh ive been listening to saviors a lot…

It really works as an album and has a great flow

[subtle ravine]

Me too lol

[wooden matrix]

feverrr tonight

[violet needle]

Tmi think some songe dont really work all too well as standalones BUT in the album context they do

[jolly zealot]

well said

[violet needle]

The glow is good and most songs are short enough that the album never gets boring even during the slow songs

[terse orchid]

I still love Saviors even though I’ve overplayed the shit out of it, and I think it is way way way better than RevRad

[violet needle]

Its really good. Its definitely not green days best album but it hits that ‚accepting to have aged‘ kind if spot after ‚midlife crisis‘ (foamf) well and in tandem with the great producion & mix just works well

[terse orchid]

That whole accepting aging after midlife crisis thing is even more true of RR following the trilogy imo

[violet needle]

Some cool lyrical moments, even though the lyrical repitition and the amount of times billie rhymes the same words with eachother again and again is a bit strange

[jolly zealot]

I think Fever is a fun one

[subtle ravine]

Fever might be pretty damn bad but at least it isn't Here Comes the Shock

[wooden matrix]

yea like rhyming crazy with crazy 3 times in a row

still love fancy sauce though

[violet needle]

I dont think the trilogy was a midlife crisis, at least not the coming of age one

[plush warren]

Nah it’s worse 💀

It sounds almost lifeless

[violet needle]

I think with foamf was the point where they wanted ti rejuvenate themselves forcefully

[subtle ravine]

I at least liked the first verse on fever, that's more than I can say for Here Comes the Shock

[terse orchid]

Maybe not, but aging is a more prominent theme in RR than Saviors

[plush warren]

Yeah I get that lol

[subtle ravine]

This, Billie's vocals sound so half-assed in this song holy shit

[violet needle]

True, but i dont mean the theme of saviors, more the sound and lyrics/song structure

[terse orchid]

Okay yeah I gotcha

[plush warren]

Exactly

[violet needle]

Like Oh Yeah

[subtle ravine]

Yeah oh my god

[devout brook]

Oh yeah slaps doe

[subtle ravine]

I hope Butch Walker doesn't work with these guys again oh my GOD

[terse orchid]

Oh Yeah is my least favorite Green Day song I lost all hope for the album when I heard it. It’s one of the most soulless songs I’ve ever heard.

[violet needle]

I liked some of his work with them

[subtle ravine]

I love FOAM but damn man I don't think he gets how Green Day is supposed to sound

[devout brook]

Father of all is the only song that sounds good

Great opener
But it goes downhill after that

[terse orchid]

I think Teenage Teenager sounds pretty good. Only bad thing is the lyrics.

[subtle ravine]

That's my second least favorite Green Day song lol

[terse orchid]

Damn what’s your least favorite

[wooden matrix]

foam title track chorus is good

[subtle ravine]

Here Comes the Shock

[terse orchid]

Valid

[subtle ravine]

And my third least favorite has just arrived in the form of Fever LMAO

[terse orchid]

I honestly think HCTS is better than Fever

[devout brook]

I thought fever would have a better chorus based on the snippets
But naw
Very boring

[subtle ravine]

Idk I think like

[wooden matrix]

same the chorus has potential

had*

[devout brook]

I do get
I gotta fever tonight stuck in my head

[subtle ravine]

I was really excited for a new Green Day when Here Comes the Shock was coming out and i couldn't believe how bad it was

I joined this server the day that song came out cuz I needed to talk about how much I disliked the song

[devout brook]

HERE COMES DA SHARK

[terse orchid]

snorts cocaine

[devout brook]

Worst part of the song tbh

[subtle ravine]

For real

I was excited for Damn Juvenile Delinquents but damn man after Fever I kinda don't wanna hear it

[terse orchid]

Wait what is Damn Juvenile Delinquents

A song?

[subtle ravine]

It was another song snippet that leaked along with the 8 second snippet of Fever

[terse orchid]

Oh shit I haven’t heard

[subtle ravine]

https://youtu.be/b6Gk62uoJfM?si=rw2lk8dCifFWwGI1

[terse orchid]

Seems mildly better than fever

Ig we will see

[wooden matrix]

yea it does

[subtle ravine]

I feel bad for Japanese fans who have to hear this trash after how good Fancy Sauce is

[tired shale]

This might be the lamest thing GD has ever written

[subtle ravine]

I got reminded of this and man now that we've heard Fever thank God we didn't get this holy shit

[static flint]

THIS FUCKS

SIGN ME THE FUCK UP

[wooden matrix]

feverrr tonight

[subtle ravine]

What does this even mean LMAOOOOOOO

[static flint]

life’s expensive when you’re going fast

[subtle ravine]

I can't believe how ass this song is bro

[static flint]

i love it

[subtle ravine]

I wish I could lol

But now it sits as my third least favorite GD song

[static flint]

it reminds of old greenday ngl

just a simple track about being alone and getting blazed lmao

[wooden matrix]

it’s a pleasant listen tbh

at least it’s not grating

[static flint]

exactly

it’s fun

[subtle ravine]

True

That's my main problem with Here Comes the Shock

[indigo spruce]

Honestly most of the new material just feels like the longshot songs for me

Laid back, low energy rock n roll music without high ambitions but a chill vibe

[terse orchid]

I agree but only for certain songs

Like Corvette Summer

[indigo spruce]

Also definitely Suzie Chapstick

[terse orchid]

Yeah, but some of the songs also just scream Green Day to me. Especially Strange Days

[violet needle]

That one also sounds like fbht

[fierce trout]

The most “classic green day” sounding songs from the album imo are:
TADIKM
LMNB
1981
Strange days
Dilemma

But i like most of the slower stuff too

[terse orchid]

I keep forgetting how good Dilemma is until I hear it. I can see it being my favorite in the long run. I’m not good at music theory, but there’s something going on with the melody that they don’t normally do, and I love it.

[fierce trout]

Augmented chord ?

Idk I really like the bridge

[terse orchid]

Sure let’s go with that. Idk I feel like it’s riddled with progressions that are like less straightforward than normal. It’s almost jazzy(?) even though that certainly isn’t the right word. Like I said I’m over my head.

[wooden matrix]

Yea dilemma bridge and solo slap

[half verge]

Is it just me or are the spotify lyrics for saviors still not up yet?

[plush warren]

The Apple Music aren’t either

[slow crest]

I love it but also this audio quality is 💩

[eager swan]

After listening to Saviors once again front to back , I can finally confirm that it truly is one of the Albums of all time.
Billie sang the songs and played the guitar like a guitarist. Mike missed no notes and perfectly played the bass guitar like a bassist and Tre hit the drums with his drum sticks.
Overall and once again ,Saviors truly is one of the albums of all time.

[knotty crow]

bravo cavallo

[oblique sky]

I hope it reflects in sale numbers as well

Last I saw sub reddit an estimate of 40-50 k opening week was put forth making on par with FOAM 😩

[ornate zenith]

One par with foam is still peaking at I think #2 on Billboard 200

Idgaf really how much thing sell though I just think it would be cool for Green Day to be active in pop culture again in a way that isn't just AI and Dookie memories

[sacred bone]

tbh I think foamf sales wouldnt have taken a huge hit week one.

[deft violet]

I don't love it but honestly if FOAM had more weird songs like that it would have been a better experimental album.

[worn gull]

: 12
: 13
: 12
Total: 37

37 songs too many

At least it's an odd number so there's a song in the exact middle of it: Stray Heart

[static flint]

plus demolicious

and the otis big mixes

[worn gull]

Aren't those just the same songs?

[deft violet]

Imagine saying that when Stay the Night, Nuclear Family, Let Yourself Go, Rusty James, Stop When the Red Lights Flash, Lazy Bones, X-Kid and 99 Revolutions exist

[static flint]

well no they’re different

[worn gull]

It's a different mix, but they're the same exact tracks

[static flint]

some of them have lyric changes too

[subtle ravine]

I'm surprised that the general public doesn't talk about 21stCB that much I mean

21 Guns was huge

[deft violet]

Huge shit amirite

[eager swan]

Livin' in the 20'z reminds me of AI and 21stcbd

[worn gull]

We all die young someday

[wooden matrix]

we all die young and watch it slip away

[deft violet]

Reminds me of that Evangelion song, Kom Susser Tod or something

Tumbling down tumbling down 🎶🎶🎶

[wooden matrix]

yeah for sure

[eager swan]

Are you talking about the anime??

[deft violet]

Yeah

[brisk pumice]

Y’all if you only got one vinyl, this is your sign to get two; any variant does it

The vinyl booklet is a HUGE poster

I mean, bigger than what you got at the listening party

I was expecting the back of it where the lyrics are to have more of the zine’s design but it’s a bit bland. If you want to have the lyrics, get a second one and you get a poster!!!!

[terse orchid]

Do you guys think the general consensus is that Saviors is better or worse than RR

[deft violet]

Since a lot of younger fans had RevRad as their first album release the concensus would be RevRad better.

I like Saviors way more but I'm in the minority

[wooden matrix]

down with the moral majority

[ornate zenith]

I also like it way more

I don't think there is anything close to a consensus on Saviors vs. RevRad

Gonna have to wait until the next album cycle for a less biased one probably

Critical consenus even has them basically even with each other

Which I can respect

Both are 72/100 on metacritic

Some critics rating Saviors higher and vice versa so it averages out to the same. Metacritic is the aggregate score like rotten tomatoes so

However not everyone has published reviews on Saviors yet

So time will still tell

[terse orchid]

I’m probably not as young as the fans you’re talking about, but RevRad was the first album release I was actively engaged in, and even if it’s partially recency bias, I’m certain I will always prefer Saviors over RR, like by a lot. RR with Saviors production would be interesting though.

[deft violet]

RevRad could use some 2min fast songs

[ornate zenith]

Also not young enough to have RevRad as my first album, that was 21CB, but RevRad got me back into the band after not listening to them for years and I think Saviors smokes it

[terse orchid]

RevRad could also use cleaner vocals

The mixing is also terrible

[deft violet]

I am a Green Day fanboy since 2009 and only put them aside in 2017 a little after RevRad. Then listened to FOA and though "Damn this is it eh". Then TADIKM dropped in october and I'm a fanboy again.

Saviors is the most "special" GD album since 21CB for me.

[ornate zenith]

Totally same here

Haven't felt like an album release was this special since I was 11, which says a lot because my music world was obviously tiny then

Haven't gotten tired of any of it since friday

[deft violet]

Yep totally

[strong valve]

Finally framed and going on my wall

[strong valve]

This is the same for me.

[ornate zenith]

Mine is supposed to come today but I haven't checked the mail room in my apartment building

[strong valve]

Mine is a signed copy from rough trade nyc . Legit needed to frame it

[ornate zenith]

Oh shit yeah

[strong valve]

Like there was no way i wasn’t framing that

[deft violet]

I regret giving away my CD collection so much

I had tons of singles

[ornate zenith]

I miss CD singles with unique art. I have the know your enemy single and I cherished that thing

[deft violet]

Yeah, even Oh Love and Let Yourself Go were cool

[terse orchid]

Same. This whole album cycle makes me feel like a fangirl it’s honestly embarrassing how much it means to me

[strong valve]

I was going through my stuff earlier and found this old bootleg that I forgot I had

Iirc I bought it in a record store in Montana

[deft violet]

Bootlegs truly is a lost art

[quiet warren]

Saviors on the front page of the New York Times

hell yeah

[deft violet]

@ornate zenith Johnny my man can we have a Cigarettes and Valentines channel so I can ramble on like a madman ?

[deft violet]

We da best music

It's okay I can talk about C&V here

In the revent interview when asked about C&V songs that we heard Billie Joe directly talked about Homecoming being made of different C&V songs. That's a new info that we never heard, I think it's safe to assume that we at least partly heard everything one way or another. I believe the b-sides CD with 16 songs is the whole Cigarettes and Valentines tracklist minus Letterbomb (Clusterbomb) and any other track that habe been reworked into American Idiot.

But since The Pedestrian and Broadway are there I wonder if we can safely assume that songs from Money Money 2020 were reworked C&V songs too.

Roshambo is a strong possibility as it is the most complete song on the album and if you remove any odities could fit a Warning era GD album. Plus the lyrics fit.

If we get some AI outtakes for the 20th anniversary I'm hoping for those in that order:

1. Cigarettes and Valentines
2. Original Roshambo
3. Original Horseshoes and Handgrenades
4. Original The Pedestrian
5. Clusterbomb (Letterbomb demo)

I think so much has been reused that releasing C&V is impossible sadly. It will always be some fanmade approximation

Thanks for coming to my TED talk

[tired shale]

Cool info, it would still be good to hear those original demos. Don't know why having the songs reworked should neglect having a proper release

You forgot Favorite Son and Too Much Too Soon, pretty sure those were confirmed

[deft violet]

Oh I did not forgot, they were in the b-sides album

1. Too Much Too Soon
2. Shoplifter
3. Governator (I'll be Back)
4. Horseshoes and Handgrenades
5. The Pedestrian
6. Too Young
7. Lights Out
8. Lately (One More Year)
9. Cigarettes and Valentines
10. End of the World
11. Walk Away
12. Broadway
13. Waste Away
14. Dropout
15. 19th Nervous Breakdown
16. Favorite Son

Add to that Clusterbomb, maybe some early version of Whatsername and/or WMUWSE, stuff that were repurposed into Homecoming, and you've got C&V hidden somewhere in there.

Here's my favorite playlist

[tired shale]

I don't think Governator was on there cause of some timeline issues

Because of Arnold being elected governor in October 2003, the song couldn't have been made until after that

[deft violet]

You're right he announced his running in august apparently

Hmm

[tired shale]

https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLh1851P4MuZS5Y8wx4xVbQ4o68GXJLiw9&si=g_RW6bryQ6lh_5VV

Made this

[tired shale]

Also 19th Nervous Breakdown is by The Rolling Stones

So that prob erases that

[strong valve]

Never seen this. Where did this originate?

[deft violet]

The guy who made the Heart Like a Handgrenade documentary posted it on twitter a few years bacl

back

I would kill to get my hands on that cd

[strong valve]

Yeah the fact that he has it gives me hope

[weak lily]

Kind of annoyed how 1234 go numbered them

This ain’t mine it’s from discogs

But it’s literally just on a hype sticker

Stamp it on the jacket wtf

[buoyant skiff]

Green Day's music just isnt for him man

then again his Green Day tier list is so damn weird so

let the record show he put and the trilogy both on the C tier

Form your own opinions guys

[tired shale]

Its good to see the users in the comments generally liked the album

[last glen]

3/10 called it

what a melon

now just waiting for all the "meh its just AIGHT" posts

[rich haven]

the end of the review has nothing to do with the album but just about political talk - like all those bad maga reviews ;D

and he gave a 5/10 to one more time? wat

be consistent at least :D

[keen pewter]

his input actuslly made sense tho

[rich haven]

not really

[keen pewter]

all he said was that Billie’s political lyrics don’t really make much sense

didn’t knock his actual politics or anything

the Maga reviews are saying he’s stupid and a woke libtard or whatever

[rich haven]

Billie never wrote "clearly" about politics, he's not RATM

I don't know why he's expecting RATM out of Green Day

that's my problem, judge the album on the music instead of just how "political" lyrics should be

like he said "oh it's not that pointed" well yeah it's not RATM

even American Idiot wasn't that straight

but anyway, saviors clears one more time, easily

so rating it less,

but it's just his opinion anyway so

[rich haven]

but at this point he's mostly an hip-hop reviewers

just look at him rating most hip-hop new albums more than 7/10 :D

when those records are the most un-imaginative things ever (and I like a lot of hip hop)

[worn gull]

never trust a man who gave sexyy red a positive review

[rich haven]

yeah at this point he's just an hip-hop head trying to get views there

[keen pewter]

I don’t agree with any of that at all

I’ve seen him rate several hip hop albums terrible scores

[violet jay]

De La Soul some peak hip hop

[tired shale]

True

[violet jay]

R.I.P Trugoy the Dove

[fierce trout]

I think he’s a good guy I just don’t like his reviews

[rich haven]

I mean of course

Like I said I like hip hop myself

And some albums he rated 7/10 when they are the most bland hip-hop

I dunno

But I guess to each their own

Can’t please everyone :>

[sacred bone]

I love how bobby sox sounds live..... i dont know if i could handle that and coming clean in the same setlist though........

[weak lily]

Got my number

742

Ink is smeared

[obsidian harbor]

Glad everyone knows he’s just gonna hate anything Green Day

He really said “strange days are here to stay has all the makings of a Green Day classic on the intro” dawg that part is literally just basket case

He just wants basket case 2 I think

Although I do agree on the criticisms given on the “everyone’s a victim” line

[worn gull]

Never forget

[obsidian harbor]

Yeah he hates Green Day

[worn gull]

For those wondering where Dos and Tre are theyre basically interchangeable with Uno

wait

where would he rank Saviors then

D row?

[obsidian harbor]

Idek

[deft violet]

Yeah

[obsidian harbor]

I’m convinced if dookie came out today he would say it’s ass

[wraith pine]

21cb at e is crazy

[brisk pumice]

This is the fairest point I’ve read about these rankings

Also, we saw how much of a difference marketing made

I’m not saying it’s the only reason why it’s good but if they released that many father of all vinyl variants you’d have everyone pre-ordering them like crazy

They just have to portray it as an album worth buying/liking

[limber shore]

3/10 from fantano lmao

idk what i was expecting

oh well

time to listen again

[limber shore]

i'm 27, been listening to green day since 2010, and i prefer saviors to rev rad

[worn gull]

3/10 is rough

Id say a 5-6 is fair

Fantano clearly only likes features, trap beats and Swedish songwriters

[plush warren]

Im pissed too but honestly I didn’t expect anything over a 4

And also he’s just one guy on the internet at the end of the day

I don’t even credit his opinion on them bc he thinks the trilogy is better than American idiot

[ornate zenith]

Mike’s backing vocals on this album are so good

Dude seriously shines on this one

[dim barn]

I LOVE SAVIORS 😄

[dim barn]

9/10 imo I LOVE IT 😭

[dim barn]

ngl you aint wrong

[worn gull]

i consider AI and Dookie to be a 10/10 and they smash this

giving it a 9 or a 10 is disrespectful to those albums for me haha

[ornate zenith]

IMO you shouldn’t be getting your opinions from someone else but critics are great for getting an outside perspective to make you a better listener on your own. For example Pitchfork gave American Idiot a 7.2 and FOAM and 6.7. Might sound crazy but it’s valuable to read/hear someone explain why they think FOAM is almost as good as AI

[dim barn]

OFC

[dim barn]

hmmm

i love FOAM

imho

FOAM was tre cool at his best

I LOVED IT!!!

[dim barn]

every green day album is 8-10 AND I MEAN EVERY (except warning)

[worn gull]

Tre is the most consistent of the 3 members

imo

[dim barn]

i love tre i droom

[worn gull]

yeah

[wooden matrix]

foam was pretty cool imo, especially that title track

[dim barn]

fr

THE DURMMING WA EHWJL;'

[wooden matrix]

huh?!

[dim barn]

i loved the drumming in the foam title track

brilliant stuff

[wooden matrix]

yeah and then the CHORUS

literally amazing

I forget what song is my least fav

my least fav was probably junkies on a high

[weak lily]

No on saviors

[wooden matrix]

oh right. probably bobby sox for me

[weak lily]

I think 1981 or living in the 20\s

They aren’t badd

But just different than the other album

I like saviors it just doesn’t blow me away

But not a lot of albums do

Bobby Sox is probably the best song on there

[subtle ravine]

I personally think that I don't really need Green Day to blow me away because they have done so already

I'm happy with a really good album at this point, especially at the point they're at

[weak lily]

I mean for that i appreciate it

But Green Day is just music i put on when I’m in the mood for them

[wooden matrix]

yea I appreciate its consistency

[subtle ravine]

Dude the instrumental carries Coma City so hard like damn Billie's lyrics and vocals on that song may not be the best but GOD DAMN Tre and Mike are giving it their all and it makes the song so good

[wooden matrix]

that instrumental is absolute fire

[worn gull]

Cum city

[obsidian harbor]

https://youtu.be/THF_LWVqc4E?si=siAtAG7K07WAxnhk

I don’t know why this is so funny to just listen

[plush warren]

Damn Bobby Sox has grown so much on me

I thought it was okay first listen but it’s great now

[eager swan]

Tre and Mike basically carried the whole Insomniac album

[weak lily]

Right next to the prerelease songs bobby Sox is probably the best

On the album

[violet jay]

Insomniac bottom 3 albums for me

[fierce trout]

Bro

[violet jay]

Hey

[fierce trout]

They were all great

[weak lily]

Did anyone notice the kid has weird fingers

[knotty crow]

1981 if it were pause screen music

[obsidian harbor]

If it was just the drum and the bass it literally could be one

[sacred bone]

They sound really good at the irving show. Some cool deepcuts. Always love 2000 light years. Bobby sox was great hope to see them play it more.

Billie was screaming for part of brain stew and i would love to hear him scream more live. Sounds really good

[slow crest]

Still mad nothing is in S 💀

[forest crag]

GOT A HQ VERSION OF FEVER

[wooden matrix]

Where??

[forest crag]

its a drive link

[keen pewter]

it’s on YouTube

I sent it earlier

https://youtu.be/QF0SruXFLmI?si=-E-qOQjUWRT4fLwm

[forest crag]

uh lmao

[hearty solar]

Not allowed to share files of copyrighted songs anyway

[forest crag]

mimimimimi

[hearty solar]

YouTube is probably allowed though since it’s on YouTube

Not sure

[keen pewter]

I’m 90% sure YouTube is fine

especially bc it’s not a leak

[ornate zenith]

YouTube is fine, if it’s not fine YouTube will copyright strike it

The problem is using this server to host or distribute the files

Because copyright

YouTube link is YouTube hosting it

[subtle ravine]

What do you guys think of the song?

[wooden matrix]

I think it’s fun

prob one of the weaker ones on saviors for me but it’s cool

kind of a vibe

[ornate zenith]

Fever? If it weren’t a bonus track it would easily be the worst for me

Not a fan

Feels like Green Day doing bro country

[knotty crow]

it absolutely sounds like a song that would be AI generated

not a fan of it at all

[subtle ravine]

I really don't like the song personally lol

It has become my third least favorite GD song fr lol

[bronze swan]

I don’t mind Fever

It reminds me of The Cars

I think you guys are overreacting

It’s not that bad

[keen pewter]

Fever might be the worst Green Day song

at least here comes the shock has energy with it

all Fever has is

I got a fever tonight🧍‍♂️

[subtle ravine]

For me it's the worst Green Day song because the chorus is fucking ass and the song is too noisy kinda?

The instrumentation is a mess in that song and I don't think it sounds that great

[worn gull]

I hate it. I’ve tried to get into it but can’t

[jolly zealot]

Am I the only one who likes Fever

[silk willow]

every saviors item i own so far

another vinyl is coming in the mail tmrw

[celest hawk]

Galaxy Pink is 🔥🔥🔥

[heady escarp]

Why

[sacred bone]

id choose that over lightlife

[indigo spruce]

It's hand claps all over again 😭

[eager swan]

Here cums the shock

Man i forgot that this song even existed

[worn gull]

idk hey. guess I'm not a fan of the screaming and the basic lyrics in the chorus

the verses aint bad.

catchy tune

esp at the beginning

[tiny plover]

Cumshot, cumshot, shooting in the distance, it's on your face and hands

Someone said they first heard it that way

And it ruined the song for me 😭

I can't hear it the right way anymore and it may be my fave from the album

[azure helm]

loving the photo for the vinyl poster and cd inside cover

[static flint]

nah i love it

[slow crest]

I think it slaps lol ur not alone

[eager swan]

I'm glad they didn't include that in the album

[worn gull]

https://youtu.be/_3LU6_pl1Ag?si=7_NnF1jb3Wl-MMnR

This guy has interesting takes

[ornate zenith]

Such a dumb clickbait thumbnail for a video supposedly about a whole album, not just one song

[obsidian harbor]

It’s also crazy if that’s the one takeaway from the album

[wooden matrix]

^^

[last glen]

One song with a riff that's similar to So What = whole album ruined!!!!
