An add on AllAccess lists that a follow up to 'Shut Up and Dance' is up soon. It's at the bottom of the picture.  |

I always capitalize their name when I use it lol.
For the second single, I'd personally do "Work This Body" or "Avalanche" since if whatever one does well on both Alt, Pop, and Hot AC, it can open the doors for other singles to do well on all formats. If they do "Different Colors" (which I think they will), it'll struggle on Pop formats since they'll likely try pushing it, and would lower their chances to be successful outside Alt in the future.

It looks messy capitalized. Exactly. I know they like to stylize it as so, but I think it's more so to grab attention then to showcase it as their actual name. It comes comes across as obnoxious. I know, for example, AWOLNATION stylize their name in capitals, but that's moreso because it's their actual name, it's one word that's not exactly an actual word, and I think it works for the band. |

"Aquaman" is my fave track off this album but I doubt that it'll get released as a single.

"Different Colors" has 25 spins on Alt Nation this last week. Doesn't mean it's the next single but I think it would be the best choice.

Indie88 is a lot better than The Edge, only if because I don't have to hear Sum 41's "Fat Lip". |

Compared to The Edge, Indie's unpredictability and hearing non-singles is part of the fun, |

You know what, I'm going to be the odd man out and hope it's "Portugal". I hope the rest of you will realize the awesomeness that is that track.

I really don't see the point of making the thread title not capital letters. They stylize their name in caps whether any of you like it or not, so...

lol so now I guess random pop posters I've never seen before are coming to our forum and trying to tell us the way things are "whether we like it or not".
Great.

lol @ a random pop poster I've never seen post in this forum coming here and trying to tell us the way things are "whether we like it or not". Well that 'random pop poster' also happens to be a moderator and has posted in the WALK THE MOON threads, along with quite a bit of others, regularly on this forum... |

Don't really care what their status is. Mod or not, to come out of nowhere to make a snobby post like that is just uncalled for. That would be like me going to the rap forum and calling them out for the way they make their threads. It's just silly. |

I'll take your word for it, but honestly that changes absolutely nothing because in no way does that mean she's a regular. And the way you just expressed your opinion is fine. I did the same thing by saying I thought it was messy to have caps. But when a non regular with mod powers comes in and says here's the way things are "whether you like it or not" is just an unnecessary shot at the forum regulars IMO. Certainly rubbed me the wrong way, anyway. And I like most get along with the vast majority of people here... |

Well, before this becomes a personal attack battle, I'll let the person I was addressing originally get her word in for fairness' sake, then I'll just digress. I just didn't appreciate the wording of the post as stated above, it rubbed me the wrong way, and that's not really easy to do... On a more on-topic note, perhaps Daryl the Beryl could add a poll asking whether we believe it should be capitalized or not. Clearly it's a divided opinion. (PS, before anyone brings it up, I'll acknowledge that my original response to the poster wasn't the most professional or civil either, I probably coulda handled that one better). |

I personally think it should be capitalized due to the fact the band does and I feel the band should have higher priority than us, but I guess like you said, we are all going to have to agree to disagree. (plus we're arguing over capitalization lmao) |

to fair it doesn't really matter that much
I'd guess the single choice but the songs I've listened to the most from the album would be bad single choices lmao

Idk, I didn't really see anything snobbish going on in any of these posts. What I got was that the official band stylization of the name should ideally take precedence, which I'd consider reasonable (despite my annoyance with non-acronym ALLCAPS bandnames)
So let's quit while we're ahead here, no need to argue over something as trivial as this
