This seems to be done with a #3 peak.
I'm living abroad so sometimes it's hard for me to tell, but it legit seems like there's no hype anymore :(

Love "After Midnight" as well. This will be a solid album.

Album is absolutely fantastic. I think After Midnight is an easy 2nd single, however the album as a whole is really resonating with me. I'm in love with it.
Edit: After a full listen I dunno. It's close. Ghost on a Dance Floor is a single possibility as well, as is Wishing Well.

I finally got around to listening to the album after having it for the last three days or so. All fourteen tracks from I guess the deluxe album and bonus tracks. I think it's exactly the album that they needed to make. They got away from the immature pop-punk material and made a rather dark and mature group of meaningful songs. I just wonder why Tom mainly sings every song with Mark doing the background vocals. I believe the only one Mark sings fully is "Hearts All Gone," and since I'm more of a fan of Mark's voice, is my favorite song on the album. Plus, it's the song most like their first two albums, which will always be my favorites from the band.

Personally, the album is really gelling a lot more with me now, and I like that the two share vocal duties on many of the songs, but I do agree that there should've been more of a tradeoff, like Mark singing verses on one and Tom doing the chorus rather than mostly the other way around. Ignoring that though, I'm finding all the songs to be pretty awesome. I was listening to it today on the drive to work and I was having a blast.

Haha. I actually feel like it's a great driving album as well as just an awesome album to begin with. xD Btw, you forgot about MH 4.18.2011 being the other song that Mark sings alone. As much as I was disappointed there wasn't much Mark on the album, you have to admit that Tom has grown much more MUSICALLY than Mark has. (I still think Mark writes better lyrics, but still, Tom as a vocalist has grown a lot.) There's probably about the same amount of each vocalist on this album as with the self-titled, so it doesn't surprise me. My favorites are generally the songs with both of them though (Heart's All Gone being the exception. )

Yes, Tom does indeed sound much better than in the past. I'm so stoked to make the three hour drive south to see them on Friday down in West Palm Beach with MCR and Matt & Kim. My friend said that last week that Tom lost his voice from being sick and if he was unable to perform, the guys from the other bands would fill in for him. I wonder how that would work with the songs he sings. Hopefully he's all better now.

It's funny you say that, because a cop pulled me over tonight for going 55 in a 45. Didn't get a ticket though, even though I couldn't find my registration anywhere (found a lot of expired ones though). I wasn't listening to Blink. Maybe I should have.

I must have jinxed you. 55 in a 45 is kind of weak, but yeah I guess slightly too fast. Thankfully, you didn't get a ticket for either speeding or misplacing your registration. I'm trying to think where you were in a 45mph zone. Were you on Lake Mary Blvd. or Semoran? Remember what happened to me back in June on the 408. The cop gave me a ticket for what he thought was an expired insurance card it was issued in November of last year and he said it lasted only six months when it really lasted a year. I had to mail in a copy of where it said "Issued for one year" and a $10 check to the Orange County Clerk of Courts, which I found to be BS. So, yeah make sure to get your current registration card or at least get another one mailed to you if possible!
