Lead radio single from their new album Wave The Bull. Most added this week with 14 adds. Shim Moore still is not a part of the band, fyi.

Didn't think they'd make a song worse than You're Going Down again but here we are. This is just as bad as Gunfight. (though the music in this one is a bit more interesting, at least?)

They need to resolve their differences with Shim because they’ve basically been a dead band walking without his songwriting. I know it’s probably never going to happen since we’re a decade past the split, but hey Oasis came back together, so never say never.
Anyway, this song sucks, Active has better choices available and any PD who plays this has sucky musical taste or sucks for taking the payola to play it.

Wait what, in what world is You're Going Down anything else than awesome! If toxic masculinity is your thing. (shrugs) I guess it's good for workouts I guess, but that's all I can say about it.

I’m glad the general opinion is that this sucks, because I also think this is pretty bad. Production sucks & lyrics are rough (the whole edgy fuck you I’m fine without you thing). This is probably better than Gunfight, but at least that song was so horrendously bad that it made me laugh a little. This doesn’t even have that.

You’re Going Down is probably the worst Tri-Polar song and in hindsight I think it helped set up the split between Shim and the rest of the band. Shim’s inspirations have always been way more on the alt-rock side of things with more personal lyrics and softer melodies, and the rest of the band has seemingly always wanted to do chugga chugga stuff. Shim only does the tough guy stuff out of image obligations I feel like. I don’t think You’re Going Down is bad as far as workout rock goes but it is generic, reminiscent of late-00’s Korn at best.

They’ll do things I don’t expect them to do (like play Judah and the Lion on this show out of nowhere) but then reject Nothing But Thieves out of nowhere.

Aint got nothing againt 'You fuck with me, you gonna lose". I feel like their big failure was releasing There's No Going Back as a lead single, that was pretty generic. Saw them during the Fury tour though and they put up a great show (very odd that they would visit Estonia, but can't complain :) )

The problem with these type of songs is that sure, these chugga chugga songs can be good for a run or a gym workout, but beyond that, the lyrics and the "tough guy/I'm fed up with you/the world" attitude of the songs make them not very appealing. And more importantly, there are better songs I'd rather listen to than this for exercise. Even from the likes of FFDP and Nickelback.

Back on topic to the new song, it's unfortunately top 50 on Active Rock already.
