Chester needed to hang out with some guys who actually make songs with guitars.

You and I know that comparing those songs to these songs is ridiculous, but whatever.

That is the worst show opening I've ever seen. Why open with a song where Brad and Dave just stand there? I honestly feel like they've lost their way. It seems like they're just going to do whatever pops in to their heads, and FU to anyone who doesn't like it. It's a shame what has happened to this band.

10 short pop songs....what an accomplishment. I just don't get it. The fact that they're so defiant about the backlash is amazing to me too. What did they think most people were gonna say? I'm not asking for HT, I'm asking for good music. ATS isn't HT, but it's unique and interesting. I still listen to it today. This new album is boring, too poppy, and generic.

Living Things is a masterpiece compared to the crap they've released from OML. I don't love LT by any means, but at least most of it sounds like LP. These new songs are garbage.

Not only are the songs horrible, but they're short too😁😁😁

Bingo....couldn't agree more. Not one of these songs makes me want to hear them again after my first listen.

The hook is ridiculous. That really the best they could come up with....just repeating invisible over and over? I thought they were concentrating on lyrics for this record? So far a majority of the lyrics are laughable.

Yup.

That's as bad a two song opener as they've ever played. It's almost like they don't have a clue what they're doing.

Ahh...thought you were referring to the Catalyst. Anyway...whatever. Just play the songs fully.

I kno that this is your opinion, but it's truly beyond ridiculous. Lost in the Echo is shortened also....just saying.

Set would be better if they stuck to plying full songs and cut all the new stuff. 😁

Better than the other 3 crappy songs, but not great. I guess I should wait for the actual recording to be released, but my expectations are officially at rock bottom.

Shortened songs and really weird song sequences. Hopefully this is only for festivals. I don't understand why they can't get their set lists right. Start off with a bunch of energy, bring it down for a bit, and finish with a bang. It's not that complicated.

I get this, but why can't they just play more full songs? At this point, there's no reason they can't play a full 2 hour show.

I don't care what they play, just get rid of the shortened songs.

I'm all in on the show at Citi Field, but I really hate shows at baseball fields.

Nah, I disagree. I think most LP fans prefer the less poppy stuff. And no, it's not good pop music. It's boring and kinda cheesy.

Sure, everyone changes as time goes on. But what does that have to do with writing generic pop songs? I don't understand why they keep acting like they're shocked by the reactions they're getting. A majority of their fans aren't listening to pop music regularly. Plus, it's not even good pop music. Stick to what you do best...this isn't it.

Another piece of crap song. Sorry, but this is just another generic hip hop/pop tune. Nothing exciting or new, which seems to be the common theme of all three songs so far.

I'm sure it's better than the garbage LP has come up with.

Look, I despise BID so I agree with you there. But I think the other ones are much better than this crap. I'm just surprised that an album that was supposedly all about the lyrics, has such painfully bad lyrics. What else is there really to say? They made a bunch of pop songs, supposedly based on these great lyrics, that a ton of people think are garbage. The music is boring, the lyrics are shit, and it all sounds very generic.

They wrote a song about someone being kicked out of a game.....wow...just wow. I don't think these songs could be worse if they tried.

This is so bad. Jesus Christ, are they even trying anymore. I'm embarrassed for them. That chorus is cringe worthy.
