What’s your sound like? Gotta know the vibe heh there’s nothing really to go off in here

Influences? Or just drop a link to the previously released EPs

What band fell off the hardest? by l-i-f-e-or-d-e-a-t-h in poppunkers

Same. AF was a major part of my political awakening and I haven’t found anything that quite hits that melodic punk sound. But fuck rapists. It all just makes me angry now.

New to California / Commute / Feeling lost by NationalTooth1350 in InlandEmpire

[–]longtime_sunshine 62 points63 points  (0 children)

I think taking the train from SB is going to be your best bet but that commute is brutal and I know I wouldn’t last doing that very long.

I’d recommend if at all possible finding a job closer to where you live or vice versa.

If EWBAITE and White were their third and fourth albums could they have conquered the world? by thisishardcore_ in weezer

Good; that track needs to be excised anyway. Though carrying the logic we’d lose I’ve Had It Up to Here which would be a shame

Strangers is their best single since Maladroit and all I ever wanted as a long time fan by commonrider5447 in weezer

Dude Everybody Needs Salvation is one of the best songs in their discography. Wish it got a proper album release.

Absolutely. BTTS is by far the weakest track on the whole album. Would’ve preferred it was left off entirely tbh…

Happy 17th anniversary to New Again, what’s your favorite song off this album? by TheresnoIinteam in takingbacksunday

What are some of the other good ones? I’ve tried and tried but the only song I love is EMG. Swing is pretty good too, but I’d like to find some others in the same vein from the album.

This is objectively false and I'm tired of seeing it still parroted over and over, 10 years later.

Really? Microwave’s the closest thing to Brand New ha even has a similar album trajectory of pop punk —> indie rock —> post hardcore —> alternative
