[Smitty.]

Looks like the G4ś and A4ś(think it gets up to there) in the background of Adams song are missing youtu.be/VvgO26dH-2g?t=139
and no bold on the Disaster G4? its pretty strong imo
same with the G#4 in obvious its done in the same manner as the tiny voices G#4 so i don´t really see a reason why thats not bolded too lol

[Gilad]

The G4s in Adam's Song are done by Mark.
Eh I'm not crazy about the G4s in Disaster.
I've bolded the Obvious notes tho

[Smitty.]

You sure
In the backing vocals of adam's song they like excatly sound like tom, not talking main vocal with mark
and wheres the C3 in anthem part 2

[Gilad]

Nah those are defo Mark, and the C3s in Anthem Part 2 are right before the first and second chorus

[crack]

[Macca]

Bold Suggestions:
D3 in Boxing Day
C3 in My Heroine (It's Not Over)
B2 in Always
A4 in Dumpweed
C5 in Singing for fun on Modlife
G5 in Dancing With Myself
Also, i'm hearing an A2 in Does My Breath Smell? on the word "Bit" In the phrase "Just Hurts After a Bit"

[crack]

thoughts on new album?

[Gilad]

Well, it's definitely better than California and Nine, at least from a songwriting perspective.

The main thing holding the album back for me is the production. Like it actually sucks. Everything is so compressed, and the vocals sound somehow even more processed than on blink's last two albums. Songs that I'd like in theory like Anthem Part 3, Terrified or Childhood are almost completely ruined by the production. Maybe I have high standards cuz I think the original three Travis albums are some of the best produced pop-punk albums ever idk

There are some moments where the songwriting and performances are fun enough to ignore the production and at points even compliment it, like Dance With Me, More Than You Know and Edging (edit: oh and Turpentine is pretty good too). I also can't bring myself to hate the song One More Time, despite it also suffering from over-production.

Overall, it's fine, like a 6/10

[crack]

yeah true. the production is a mess. there's consensus about that from what I've seen so it's not just your high standards. I still love Terrified tho. love the powerful vocals in the chorus. I've listened to that shit like 50 times in a row. It's like Watch the World meets Tiny Voices
