watching five minutes of man overboard was the worst waste of my time at warped.

if you like Senses Fail, you'll most likely dig this band. Vocals are pretty similar.

other than my one very slight nitpick haha this is a good review and I totally agree with it, best pop punk album of the last 2-4 years

Band sounds exactly like State Champs.

This is a good thing.

I like this record but I don't feel it's as incredible as everyone is saying it is. Ides is a hell of a track.

I love MOB on record but I watched them at Warped and got bored after about 10 mins. I tried to tough it out but they were just so boring.

i'm guessing the "*" was meant to lead to a footnote saying to listen to more than one pop-punk record this summer?

not a fan of any of the riyl bands, but was still planning on checking this out.
I forgot to make the footnote at first but I added it in later haha

I don't really agree on the comparison. But both bands deserve the attention they've been getting.

idk, to me the most obvious similarity was the vocals (minus the screaming). when I first heard this band, all I could think of was "man this sounds like a lighter version of Senses Fail." maybe it's just me though.

So many great hooks on this record.
For a debut full length, they really made a statement with this. Perfect album title as well.

In reference to State Champs, I feel SC sound more like I Call Fives. Eitherway it's all good.

Nah don't see it in the vocals at all tbh. Vocals remind me of The story so far much more.

I feel like that is a pretty big statement, considering, how some people could argue, that the last few years have been pretty strong for pop punk releases.

I'll definitely have to check this out.
