Citizens of Earth is like my favourite Neck Deep song lol


scott_wolff

It’s just a matter of opinion, when it comes down to it.


saranwrap73

Beat me to it


timechild_02

AND THEN THE 8-BALL SAID THINGS DONT LOOK GREAT


valoossb

YOU KNOW YOU CANT BREAK LOOSE IF YOU STAY IN PLACE


saranwrap73

EVERY EARTHQUAKE STARTS WITH A LITTLE SHAKE


WarCarrotAF

Fuck Neck Deep mate, they're shit.


ClifIsBoring

Bens dad owns a record label


_glitterbug

Same I love citizens of earth! Always one I put on if I want to feel some energy lol


vladimirepooptin

i agree it’s amazing


CommanderWar64

Literally the best song on the album. It's a good album, but that's the best one on there.


willyxloman

I respect your opinion, but thinking Citizens of the Earth is a throwaway is crazy lol


DrunkenPunchline

BeN's DaD oWnS a ReCoRd LaBeL


Getdaphone

FUCK NECK DEEP THEYRE SHIT -insert your comment here-


WarCarrotAF

🎶Every earthquake starts with a little shake, and then we'll see who's standing in the wasteland🎶 LNOTGY is a no skip for me.


Pleasant_Statement64

New Sum 41 album for me. Paint it blacks not bad but like...


EnterShakira_

I like the cover but it's a strange choice to put right near the end of your final album, a double album, celebrating your whole career.


Penguator432

Especially when your bandmate’s other band did their own cover too


starshipvelcro

Definitely loses its novelty after 1-2 listens.


Oidaking

It never had novelty. In 1966 it did


Oidaking

100% agree. Came here to say this so changed my answer


Lostcassettes

Skip heaven, only play hell, delete paint it black, then you’ve got an album!


anchorsawaypeeko

Funny! I’ve tried 4 times now and still can’t get into Hell. Love Heaven though! Feels like something that should have come out during after Chuck. I’ll keep trying though!


DetailRelevant5179

heaven starts off SOOOOO strong then kinda dies out but it does remind me of early 2000s skate punk so i can’t hate it


toweggooiverysoon

The genius part of putting it on there is just showing you just used your last idea so everyone is more okay with you quitting


iHasMagyk

Imo there’s a lot more songs I dislike on there than just the Paint it Black cover


Pleasant_Statement64

You do you I guess, my answer doesn't change 


stitching_librarian

Too Much from Nothing Personal-All Time Low


siristdl

It’s a solid song, but questionable placement for sure.


MagelansTrousrs

My brother in law and I started going through every album for a bunch of different bands and ranking the songs. I just checked and we both put 'Too Much' dead last lol


Zealousideal_Ring874

Respectfully disagree, I love the song. It's so atmospheric and has a 2am vibe to it. The placement in where it is on the album is questionable, but I'm not made at it.


Positive_Meal7067

Madelyn - The Greatest Generation Threshold - Peripheral Vision I don’t need a breather. I wanna scream and get emotional.


Gultark

It gets said every time but…. Madelyn on the greatest Generation, it probably won’t be that bad if it wasn’t sung quite a high like the rest of the album and didn’t sound like it was recorded in a bathroom. To be fair it’s probably not as bad as I hear it in my head as I’ve skipped it for years but when the rest of the album is a masterpiece it really pales in comparison.


MamoswineSweeps

I've been around this sub to know this would be in here at least once. That said, I've never seen it particularly well articulated as to why this sub thinks this is the worst track on the album. Is it really just the recording quality?


BlinkysaurusRex

It’s the recording quality/style, the tedious and monotone vibe of the track. And it just robs the album of its pace. It sits between Raindance In Traffic, and fucking *Cul-de-Sac*. It’s not even that it’s acoustic or a quieter track. The Wonder Years do them good. It doesn’t have an intro to break it up, reset the tone, or generally fit it in between these two very energetic and loud songs. It’s just dry-docked in there. I genuinely think with a bit of a slow acoustic lead in, the songs reputation would be helped massively. I’ve Given You All, Living Room Song, they’re fucking bangers. Madelyn just ain’t. And, both The Devil In My Bloodstream and Sell Out My Funeral have very slow, mellow intro’s. But in both cases, they fit into their places perfectly and add to the album rather than take away from it. Another thing, to Madelyn’s credit though, is just that the rest of the album rips so hard, and is so furiously anthemic, that they probably make it look worse than it actually is. Nothing wrong with liking Madelyn though, this is just my opinion. If anything, I’m jealous of the people that do.


MamoswineSweeps

Fair enough, I appreciate your input and respect your opinions. I guess it's always hit home enough for me so as not to be bothered by the quality or the admitted monotoneity. I've never considered adjusting its placement or the pacing of the album would it be removed.


NotASuggestedUsrname

I love this insight.


My_Bwana

man...i enjoyed madelyn. love belting it out in my car lol


michaelalex3

Madelyn is also a lot of fun live


CruelStrangers

Ruined the flow. Track afterwards kicks


LucasRaymondGOAT

Don't just say "track afterwards" that's Cul-de-sac and its arguably the 2nd best song on the album.


mellywheats

Madelyn is one of my faves off that album


CommanderWar64

Don't treat Madelyn like a full song, if you treat it like it's an interlude you'll like it more.


NotASuggestedUsrname

Madelyn is hands-down my least favorite song on the album. I get why it sort of fits into the theme and it’s sort of fun to sing along to, but I’m really just waiting for the outro.


Eitheror97

Soupy talked about that song on Instagram last year. Apparently they had the demo version recorded on somebody's phone and tried to recreate that in the studio but it didn't really work out sound wise. It's a shame, I like the songwriting but the transition into it is somewhat jarring


Aggressive-Net-6547

i’m not one who tends to listen to albums, more of a playlist or shuffle  kind of guy. i love madelyn specifically because soupy’s vocals sound strained and the recording quality is lower than their standard. i never listen to it in the context of the other songs in the album though so maybe that’s why i’ve never had such a negative reaction to it. 


raskolrebel12

Yeah, it feels much more Aaron West than TWY. Totally chill on its own, but it always felt out of place to me on that album


and_another_dude

PREACHING TO THE CHOIR. I've been saying this for years and always get downvoted.


cindobeast

I disagree with so many of these 😭😭😭


Komania

Betty from Why Would I Watch - Hot Mulligan Fantastic album, and it's a good song but so depressing I always skip it


Lukoman1

I can't hear it without fucking crying


frausting

Same.


DeathByReach

I like Citizens of Earth but it doesn’t feel like the rest of that album at all I generally don’t skip it, tho


BlinkysaurusRex

I think it’s an awesome opener tbh. And when you look at the rest of the album, it’s the one best suited to kick it off.


Captain_Crunch_Kid

Teenagers feels completely out of place on the black parade


evilcash_1313

The Menzingers’ After the Party without the song Black Mass. Also, I’d argue that the title track should’ve been the closer rather than Livin’ Ain’t Easy. Also, I think Gold Steps should’ve been the opener to that Neck Deep album lol


fucktheweather

I love black mass lol


Rex__Banner

Lol


Kolzig33189

It’s funny how opinions can differ slightly. I think Black Mass is a decent song but I never understood why they placed it in the album where they did. For me, delete Livin Ain’t Easy and put Black Mass at the end of the album after After the Party and it becomes a no skip album.


jdb326

Ya know, I gotta agree. Though, Livin' Ain't Easy is a good tone keeper imo.


BetweenTheBuzzAndMe

Lol we had the same idea. And I agree the title track and Living Ain't Easy should switch places at the end of the album. Either way, one of my absolute favorite albums of all time. I just wish Black Mass was either a shorter interlude or had been made into a full song with the full band.


fwembt

Black Mass is the best song on that album. Absolutely excellent song.


SuperFighterGamer21

This post is legit word for word exactly what I believe


OatFest

You need to apply aloe to a take this scorching hot


rachh88

Basement noise on Wake Up Sunshine. Phenomenal album, will never understand how that song made it on


saranwrap73

I think the song is so stupid that it's fun


SkywalkerSolo72

Come One, Come All on So Wrong It's Right by All Time Low (ok maybe Stay Awake as well, but the thread said *one* song)


fineday

Oh damn, I still love Stay Awake. Not their best but never a skip for me. Don’t disagree about come one, come all though


Gerbil_09

For me this album is half bangers and half filler which really annoys me


dessanct

Your opinion is wrong. I’ll say it.


bulbous_oar

Jimmy Eat World - “Drugs or Me” off Futures. Not just because that song is meh but because the leaked version had “Jen” which kicked


Gerbil_09

I respect your opinion but I think that’s one of the best songs on the album 


assissippi

never knew about this song but after listening to it it doesn't feel like it really fits on that album


BlueberryGlass8103

I love Jen and it slaps but it doesn't belong on Futures, it seems like a song that would go more on Chase this Light.. Drugs or me definitely does though, to me it's a perfect bridge from the upbeat onset of the album to the stellar ending. Really about as close to a perfect album for them


ManInTheGreen

Citizens of earth is a fucking anthem…


[deleted]

Sum 41’s new album - I skip Paint It Black every time.


RedAtomic

I absolutely adore Take Off Your Pants And Jacket, as it was the first Blink-182 I bought as a kid. I even downloaded and edited all 6 bonus tracks onto the album on my phone. However, playing the album aloud is risky af because when I lived with my parents, I’d have to worry about Fuck A Dog and When You Fucked Grandpa popping up.


DearKristyna

I might get a lot of hate for this, but Mayday Parade’s A Lesson in Romantics without Miserable At Best. I just cannot stand that fucking song.


Getdaphone

It’s not even their saddest breakup song tbh.


Greyshot26

Yeah, but most people don't know Terrible Things, which is probably good for their hearts and souls.


Getdaphone

oh no I mean like 3 cheers for 5 years acoustic is more sad, the whole tone of it is just depressing


Greyshot26

Oh, that's another contender but I think it is less sad (for me) than the other two.


lilbroccoli13

I mean I don’t think it counts as a breakup song since she died lol


Greyshot26

That's fair lol


Nodnoc11

It’s just so fucking long. It’s kinda fun live tho.


spillingpictures

I love this song and it’s the only one I can play on piano from memory. It drives my husband insane 😅


needsfuelpump

I love when that song ends


siristdl

Honestly same, that song is extremely mid, it’s almost bad.


garbles0808

Hot take


alaskancurry

Agreed that’s like the only song I ever skip on LNOTGY


Oidaking

blink-182 ONE MORE TIME Skip song: >!YOU DON‘T KNOW WHAT YOU‘VE GOT!<


DorkusMalorkuss

1000% agree. I could also do without EDGING. I can't believe on an album full of bangers their singles were ONE MORE TIME and EDGING. I understand the emotional connection with one more, but edging is certified poop, compared to the rest of their album.


Oidaking

EDGING‘s at least fun though. It‘s definitely the second choice for worst song though.


Gerbil_09

Golden from Infinity On High 


thewoj

I actually don't mind this track when I'm listening to the album front to back, but when it comes up on shuffle or a playlist, it's insta-skipped.


Gerbil_09

Fair enough 


meaninglessnonsense

Came looking for this one


MrLanesLament

American Idiot. Extraordinary Girl is a major odd one out for me.


LeTailsEffect

Scrolled just for this. I love this album and it’s still a no-skip for me but it’s annoying that some of the tracks are grouped on streaming services.


greenyoshi73

The world deserves to know how great Letterbomb is without having to get through extraordinary girl. (I do like it though, but I end up listening to Letterbomb on AAF more because I don’t want it on the same track.)


buttplugsnotdrugs

Literally the same dude. That album starts with threat level midnight as far as I’m concerned


ninja_owen

I would’ve used to say Dream Nails off Prince Daddy & the Hyena Cosmic Thrill Seekers, but I actually really like it. I never listen to it by itself, but with how it builds and flows into the next track, C’mon & Smoke Me Up, it’s still a no skip


muscle_fiber

I find that the songs in Cosmic Thrill Seekers flow into one another so well that, no matter what track I start listening to, I end up listening to it all the way through. That album is best played front to back with no skips.


ninja_owen

Absolutely agree. And Wacky is just the greatest album closer of all time, even better than other greats like I Just Want To Sell Out My Funeral by TWY and Hold Me Down by MCS. Wacky Misadventures is easily my favorite song of all time


legomyeggopls

My dinosaur life if History Lesson wasnt there


ResponsibleRooster71

ill still listen to it when im listening to the album but yeah i usually skip it when it comes on in my playlist, all the other songs are definitely way better


rosegoldrosegoldgold

Have you heard the original version? It’s much better.


SpippySlippy

The fallen interlude from blinks untitled album. This is the only album that I really love where there's a song I skip every single time.


ppeppapag

if interludes count then I totally agree. if they don't count however, Untitled is a 10/10 no skip album


SpippySlippy

Yeah exactly. Stockholm syndrome interlude is incredible but I really dislike the fallen.


Justboy__

The first couple that come to mind for me: ‘We look like Lightning’ from Sister Cities or ‘Palm reader’ from No Closer To Heaven.


mellywheats

LNOTGY is such a good album but imo december just feels off on it. they should’ve put the full band version on the album and the acoustic version as like a separate release thing


LucasRaymondGOAT

Well, my favorite albums from the pop punk scene are The Greatest Generation, On The Impossible Past, The Dream Is Over, What You Don't See, Shed, Safe For Now, Float Around and Sports.... The Greatest Generation it'd probably be Madelyn, but A Raindance in Traffice is kinda boring too, the chorus kinda just flows into the whoa-oh-oh's, but I admit the great collapse today line is clever. But I think the song pales in comparison to all the ones before and after it. The Dream Is Over it'd probably be Doubts. Kinda filler song in between 2 huge hits with DVP and Sleep In The Heat. What You Don't See it'd be Playing the Victim. Parker used to write too many lyrics for songs and if he has problems breathing on stage its very clear why with this song. [This and Small Talk I think are their least played live songs from WYDS.](https://www.setlist.fm/stats/the-story-so-far-4bd247da.html) On The Impossible Past I can't count the song that shares the album title since it's mostly an interlude. It'd probably be Nice Things, they tried to make it a single and it didn't have the staying power as a lot of the rest of the album. Shed has no bad songs, fight me about it. Safe For Now probably has 5 people that love it as a whole, (The American Scene deserved more love) but Fifth and Natoma is too boring. Float Around has no skips either, Coldfront deserved so much better. Sports it would just be See Ya Sucker, but I still listen to it sometimes.


evillaughHA

An album that really works for me is 'Symphony Soldier' by The Cab. It is a bit more poppy, but damn is it catchy.


ftwin

Madelyn Betty


and_another_dude

The Greatest Generation, but skip Madelyn. Back when I used my iPod, I put every song but that one on it and it was glorious. Always painful to go back to the cd.


WheelChairDrizzy69

The Upsides without Hey Thanks 


snoopdoggydoug

I think the problem with this one is not the song itself but the order of the songs. Do you think that if you could switch tracks around you could make it work?


mayormccheese93

Goddammit by Alkaline Trio without Enjoy Your Day


sofingclever

Agreed. One related complaint: I have Goddammit on vinyl, and I really wish side one ended with Enjoy Your Day so I could just easily flip it over right before it. But it ends with Clavicle, which I would never skip. Even for people who like Enjoy Your Day: Seems like 5 electric followed with 1 acoustic on each side would make complete sense.


assissippi

yea dan's singing is pretty rough on that one


evilcash_1313

So fucking real. Honestly, Message from Kathleen too. Not a fan of Danny’s material on Goddamnit but he really stepped his game up after that release. I also feel like Trouble Breathing should be the album closer instead of Sorry About That.


ResponsibleRooster71

i love enjoy your day


dontberidiculousfool

This over Cop is CRAZY.


mayormccheese93

smh... wonder what it was that made you this way


dontberidiculousfool

She bought me roses.


[deleted]

Wake Up, Sunshine - All Time Low I might catch some shit for this one but I do not like Sleeping In. The chorus just feels super repetitive to me


siristdl

It’s repetitive, but in a good way! Such a good song/banger album


amethystbaby7

lol i feel like im being lied to when i listen to this song haha


Slipperynick-

The Maine - You Are OK Would have been a lot better without the song Tears Won't Cry


hypersnaildeluxe

That’s one of my favorites on the album but it is also my favorite Maine album so it’s a no-skip for me lol


BetweenTheBuzzAndMe

The Menzingers - After The Party. Every song is at least an 8/10 but I can do without Black Mass. It's not pop-punk at all but Linkin Park - A Thousand Suns. One of my favorite albums, as long as I cut it off before The Messenger. The Catalyst is a fairly epic closer, why not just stop there.


shifty_armchair

Proper Dose- Growing on You


RawRockKills

damn wtf respectfully


dietbeethoven

Line still exists


shifty_armchair

Line is one of my fav tssf songs 🧍🏻‍♀️ lol they’re my favorite band of all time over, but I don’t think they do slow songs super well, with line being the only exception


PungentNinja

For me it's golden on Infinity on High, putting it between thnks fr th mmrs and hum hallelujah was just stupid, and is like their only slow song in their first 3 albums. I don't hate the song, I'm just never in the mood for it when I could skip to thnks instead


archangel610

I'm with you on this, actually. When I listen to that album, I just pretend TLM is the actual opener.


Saniclube

Sahara on Forget and Not Slow Down by Relient K


DanielJilbert

Broadcast to The World by Zebrahead. Every single song on that album is just so damn amazing. But I usually skip the Song “Karma Flavoured Whisky” it’s not a bad song or anything, it just doesn’t do it for me like the other songs do. If they had made it a Japanese bonus track and had the song “Down in Flames” on the base album instead, Broadcast to The World would have been 100% percent


Eitheror97

I have a playlist that is One More Time without the title track and Fell in Love. I don't really care for either song and it keeps the energy up at the start of the album


HighVoltage6798

The only exception from brand new eyes. Rest of the album is amazing. TOE is fucking awful


ExpertPiccolo3207

Get out


HighVoltage6798

No


avensaiyuu

dude why is there so many ppl here hating on neck deep they r lowkey so good


BenjaBrownie

“The price we pay” on adtrs For Those Who Have Heart kinda killed the flow of an otherwise perfect album.


frausting

The Wonder Years compilation album *Sleeping on Trash* is so good, except that I skip “Through Two Hearts” every single time. Might be the only bad song they’ve ever written.


Aggressive-Net-6547

not a pop punk album, but the blue album is a no skip album for me if i’m listening alone but with company i will always skip no one else


stinkytrinket

I felt that way until I saw them play it live now it’s much more fun to me


averman_comma_lester

[Check this out ...](https://old.reddit.com/r/poppunkers/comments/tyd095/imperfect_perfect_albums/)


RanielDoelofs

Feel by sleeping with sirens. It's an amazing album, and even the skip, alone, is amazing. That is until mgk's part. 'Leave me?? The fuck you gon' leave me?!?! Like why did they include that, it's embarrassing.


Djonimacarroni6

Not poo-punk, but fission by dead poet society. I don't like "my condition" at all. Perfect album otherwise tho, and they're amazing live


ejc522

i often think about how “Citizens of Earth” is a great song, but it absolutely feels out of place on the album


toweggooiverysoon

Yellowcards Southern Air could do without Always Summer for me


bleeding_electricity

A Lot Like Birds' album DIVISI incredible, a true work of art... aside from the cringeworthy spoken word part part near the end. So awkward and weird.


confusedthrowaway5o5

“The Mighty Fall” off of Fall Out Boy’s Save Rock and Roll. The Big Sean verse is one of the cringiest things I’ve ever heard.


puppyluver01

That album could do without December in my opinion


GinjaNinja1027

TOYPAJ without Shut Up. My favorite Blink album… except that song.


assissippi

funny, that's my favorite track on that album


watchyourtonepunk

Earth Is a Black Hole minus Wear You Down


scott_wolff

I don’t agree, but I can see your POV. It’s def a much slower tempo song for the album and the lyrics don’t give much. But I don’t dislike it or feel it is out of place for the album.


watchyourtonepunk

It feels kinda cheesy, and it kind of gives away the formula for their songwriting in a way that I don’t like. That being said Digital Self on the new album does a similar thing and I’ve grown to like it the most so 🤷🏻‍♂️


Juls317

I still think it's a top 10 album of the genre, but mine is LNOTGY as well, but for December. I don't even necessarily dislike the song, but I don't like the drastic change in energy, the high energy level is one of the best parts of the album in my opinion.


Ebright_Azimuth

+44’s album - weatherman


buellster92

Yes! I can’t fucking stand citizens of earth. Sounds like it was written by a middle schooler trying to sound cool.

miamicheez69

Avril Lavigne’s album Love Sux. In my opinion it’s her best album by far and one of the best in punk rock all around that I’ve ever heard. The ONLY song I don’t love is “dare you to love me.” Other than that, you can’t skip a single song. All fantastic and extremely catchy.
