Guy: Her locker's down the hall, I've counted 17 from mine.
Girl: Does he see me? Does he even know that I'm close by?
Guy: We're in the hallway, always at half past nine.
Girl: Would he ever get to know me? Would he take the time?

Hey, I just had to throw my favorite albums of the year out there.
Fabulous Muscles is an amazing album. The song of the same title, however, is rather creepy. I'm fairly certain it's the most disturbing love song I've ever heard.
You all knew I'd be back, just for this thread alone. I'll go away now.
Bye everyone!

I did. I think Rob did too.
It's good, but I really believe they lost all the energy they had recording the demos. It sounds like they don't know what they did when they did to start, so they ended up copying themselves and sounding over rehearsed and under creative.
John Nolan said in an interview that they recorded the album basically by sequestering themself in a studio in the middle of nowhere and recording over and over and over again, like it was a job and he found the whole process tedious.
Eh. It's good. They lost the spark the had though.

yea that album is just boring.
the demos had this raw emotion that seemed like it could have evolved. Instead it just got slower and more boring. I think John needs to rock out some more because he had a screaming voice in Taking Back Sunday. The slow shit is good but it is just so over produced.

See them live. I agree that the album pales in comparison to the demos that were available on the website. The entire album (with the exception of Sympathy for the Martyr) is overproduced. But if you want to see that raw emotion, see them live.
Some of you probably think I left. But was I ever here to start?

the shows are alright but they too feel a little to pre-planned
