| I probably would have loved them when I was 16 but the new album is pleasent. Mountain Goats referencing pop-punk gets a pass in my book. |

"when John introduced "Woke Up New" in St. Augustine I knew I wasn't alone"
TWY is actually creeping on TGA in play count on last.fm... |

Exactly it. A girl I know who I share a mutual love of TMG with told me about it and I hunted the song then album down. |

Have fun. Maybe the show will convert you and afterwards you'll realize just how great of a record Suburbia is... Just be sure to watch out for the scene kids who try and spend the whole entire show crowdsurfing. |

| I doubt I'll be converted I've seen them 4-5 times and listened to all their records. Just about as mediocre/boring as most pop punk bands. They always put on a fun show, but they're nothing special. |

| I have never been able to get into this band but I kind of want to see them with Mixtapes and Daytrader. |

| I love transit! I just mix up wonder years with four year strong, sometimes I can't even distinguish the difference between the two. |

. Not sure how anyone could call Suburbia "boring". There is a heart and soul to that record that goes far beyond your tranditional poppy hooks and fluff-filled lyrics of your NFG cloans (not to slight NFG. I love a good pop punk song as much as the next guy. But there is a lot more substance in something like "its not about forcing happiness its about not letting sadness win" than "Have I waited too long? Have I found that someone? Have I waited too long to see you?") In my mind they are really only a "pop punk" band in the same was Gaslight is a "punk" band.
