I sort of agree, I've liked all 3 singles now, so I'm hoping that if their contract with Island isn't up yet that they keep them around for at least 1 more album to give them a chance before dropping them. Because we gotta face the facts, this album bombed

Part of it was releasing it in December. Part of it was releasing it far too soon after the last album. And part of it was following that cycle with a single that sounded exactly like "Ladies And Gentlemen". And also dropping out of SnoCore hurt them too.

Oh I agree with all 3 of those facts.
I'm just worried because it extends too Hoobastank too, and I still like the new music by both bands no matter how unappealing it's been to the mainstream. I just can't see Island keeping both these bands around after each of them seeing commercial failures and both of them being on the decline...in the mainstream anyways

They need to jump ship to a different label. I dunno.

Not to mention had "ladies and gentlemen" actually mentioned in the opening lines of that single that sounded exactly like the single of the same name!  Sincerely, Lisping Hibiscus |
